B.F. mm GRADY SCHOOL Albertson, North Carolina 1957 FOREWORD

That first school bus ride, like that first day in school, was a dream come true. Still, the fulfillment of that long awaited dream was simply the beginning of many other dreams. Among these happy and pleasant dreams, the day of graduation has been a shining objective. Holding fast to it through the years, we know now that dreaming encourages growth, happiness, and success. So may we and everyone on the pages of this bookcontinue to dream and strengthen each other. DEDICATION

Parents love, guide, and teach us in many ways. Often, their ways have not been pleasant, but time has shown that we have profited from them. All of our growing years, though, have not been spent with our parents alone, for in time our lives are shared with teachers who love, understand, enrich, and instruct us dally. It is for their sacrifices, their friendship, and their constant efforts to make us better prepared and happier through life, that we, the Senior Class, proudly dedicate this book. to our parents and Mr. Edgar Wells, Jr., our lovable teacher.
