He pays a high tribute to the telephone operators and the hand they lend in getting the firemen to the fire. If a fireman does not call in at once after the alarm is sound ed, the operator calls him and tells the-location of the fire. Of the 18 local firemen, an average of 12 answer every call. In addition to Kerley the fire men include, R. H. Clark, assistant chief, Bradford Mehaffey, John Boyd, Will Strange, J. W. Cole, Sam Cabe, Paul Walker, Paul Young, Walter Mehaffey, John West, Hub Burnett, Harold Massie, Ben Colkitt, James Boyd, Jr., and John Ray. In his time Kerley says he has been to more than 500 fires and generally average 30 a year. Last year the fire department was called out 60 times and to date this year they have had 21 calls. "The worse fire we have ever had in the city limits in my time was that of the Reeves building on Main Street back in 1927. It was so hard to get at and our pump wasn't working. The fire had a big start before we got there around 3 o'clock in the morning," he said..1.; "Another bad fire was that of the """'7. , -. cnn residence oi miss Alice vuinian.

Salutatory Address By Clarence Arringtoni Parents, teachers and friends: My classmates have conferred upon me the great honor of speak ing the words that shall bid you welcome here tonight. I am grate ful to them for this mark of their favor, but still, as I look around upon your faces, so much more clearly marked with lines of wis dom and wider experiences than ours may be for many years to come, I cannot but feel that the words of welcome should come from you, yet it is we who are passing out into your midst, we who are joining you in the larger school of progress outside these doors, we who are entering into your pursuits and pleasures, and becoming one with you in the so cial and business centers that make up active life. So much of our success there will depend, too, upon the way in which you re ceive us, and the spirit in which you respond to our enthusiasm. Is it not we, then, who should ask for the glad hand of welcome? Tonight marks a new epoch in our lives. It is not the end of our educational career, it is just the beginning. For four years we have been studying and preparing for this day which we call commence ment. It will be the commence- l ment of many new experiences for ! all of us. Some of our group will go to college, some will enter the fields of business and industry, while others will become home makers. In whatever place we find ourselves we pledge to you, kind parents and friends, that we will render the greatest service possible which will be but a small way of showing you our apprecia tion of the investment you've made in us. During the four years here many new vistas have been open ed to us through the various courses we've studied. We have learned how to apply the knowl edge we have gained, how to use wisely our leisure time, how to be come better members of the com plex world about us, and how to choose the vocations for which we are best adapted. These are just a few of the many things we have learned.. As we leave here we realize what all these experiences have meant to us. They are founda tion stones on which we will build our lives. It is our desire as we become members of the vast so ciety of men and women that the fundamental principles we have learned here through us will be reflected in the lives of those with whom we come in contact. So, as we welcome you tonight, it is with a feeling of sincere ap preciation and thanks for the op portunities you have made possi ble for us. We feel that we must ask your forbearance and kindly sympathy, and crave from each of you as we step forth into your midst, the warm handshake and cordial smile that will assure as of your joy at bidding us welcome. Valedictory Address.:.. By Winifred Rodgers. V Friends, Teachers, Classmates: The world today is shadowed by :i i I . I u IB I CVU SH1U UU3, HIIU lb H all the lights have gone out. But . the light of hop is burning bright ly in all our hearts, and it Is guiding us into the future. As we stand on the brink of future life, it is our great privi lege to know that we live in a dem ocratic America, that affords for us free and excellent guidance in the principles of right living.. In the four years that we have spent in Waynesville High School our parents, teachers,' and friends have exerted every possible influ ence to aid us in making the most of ourselves. To the teachers who have been so encouraging and patient in guiding and advising us, we give our heartiest thanks, for without your help we could never have reached this point. And parents, you have never ceased to give us the love that it has taken to face the many prob lems that have risen. No sacrifice has been too great, on your part, that we might have the many things we have wanted and needed. You have high hopes for our fu ture. May we be worthy of you expectations. Classmates we have worked and played together for four years. During this time we had our pe riods of gloom and happiness, and out of this has grown a sincere and mutual friendship. In the years that lie ahead may this feeling con tinue, and may our lives reflect the principles and guidance that we have received at Waynesville High School. In closing, may I leave with you this verse: Look for the best there is in life, Seek to find the pure Give to all a kindly word, A smile, a bit of cheer Don't forget the sorrow, Make things a little brighter, Then in life's tomorrow, You'll find your heart is Jighter. And now Good bye and Good luck! CARD OF THANKS We wish to thank our friends for their expressions of sympathy and beautiful floral offerings sent to us at the time of the death of Wood row Davis.
