I have lived a fairly serene life. I have had my moments of pain, and at the
present time I have turned slightly green-all because I have acquired a new coat of
paint. I saw the Class of '51 for the first time in the fall of 1945. They were an
eager lot! They were a green bunch then, dressing up Hallowe'en Witches, digging
holes in the desks and walls, and generally trying to impress me with their originality,
which incidentally, they did.
Through the years my halls were filled with gleeful throngs after the gridiron
victories over Live Oak, and my classrooms saw the determined class supplying an-
swers to the numberless questions asked by the faculty in the semester tests. Then
at last the class of '51 left my painted halls in quest of new kingdoms to conquer.

0 God from whom cometh every good and perfect gift, make us worthy of the
rich heritage that we in our America enjoy. Strengthen us in body and in spirit by
work and play, by fellowship and friendship, so that we may be fitted for our calling
in the service of our country and the world. Make us honest, diligent and loyal, so
that we may do honor to our parents and to this school and to Thee who has created
us to glorify Thy name.
AMEN.
