Deatherage l give you a name that woos the heart With the romance that valorous deeds impart- Of beautiful girls and strong young men, Who prove its traditions again and again- A high born name of ancient line That shines through the years like a holy shrine Of solemn beauty and spiritual light, A name like a beacon, resplendently bright-- The name of Carthage High. I give you a name that charms the mind, Like an old, old story rich in the kind Of primeful things that Youth loves best: Of flowers-and vows-and the passionate quest For high estates beyond the ken Of those without a heart to win. Clf Creek and Afric in equal part- 'Tis a name that sprang from the urn of art- The name of Carthage High. I give you a name that holds the eye, Crleaming aloft o'er the shouting throng, A name that rings like a battle-cry- Or softly croons in the low, sweet song That dreamy, wistful Memory sings. 'Tis a name we love like a sacred scroll, Sealed and bound with our own heart strings, To us its theme will never grow old So long as fond recollection brings The name of Carthage High.

The Freshmen laugh and the Sophomores never sigh, All are happy, vacation's on the Way. The Seniors join with the gay and happy throng, All merry, no sorrow is nigh. But a shadoW's there mid the laughter and the song, There's a sigh, Old Carthage High, goodbye. CHORUS Sigh no more, my classmates, Oh sigh no more today. Let us sing one song for the Old Carthage High, Ere we go from Carthage High far away.. For friends must part, and the old Carthage High, To others its nurture must give. Here youth must learn by the light of other days, The high lesson of service to live. The friendships we've made in these gay and happy years, The spirit of Old Carthage High Are dear to us as the parting hour appears And we sing, Old Carthage High, goodbye. CHORUS Sigh, no more, my comrades, Oh sigh no more today. Let us sing one song for the Old Carthage High, For our own, dear Carthage High, always. Senior Class Notes It was in the fall of 1921 that the famous class of 1925 made its entry into the halls 1 f C th H' h School. We came 'in with the usual ambitionland and class rooms 0 . ar age lg ' 't did not wane within enthusiasm, but unlike most other classes of freshmen our SPIFI ' h 1 k the first few weeks and settle into the common, monotonous routine of sc oo. WOT . But instead, it has grown continually stronger a and untiring activities and achievements. Thus far in the annals of Carthage High School the industrious class of 1925 has been the largest. It numbere.d, originally, two hundred forty membersland we feel that we were not only superior in quantity, but also in quality, as our brilliant record. for the past four years has proved. W We began our freshman year by showing other classes our good judgment in elect- ing Victor Wallace president. The enrollment of the class of 1925 marked a new era in the history of the school. In the fall of 1922 we once more assembled with our habitual dash and pep. We reelected Victor Wallace president and immediately began to put forth an effort to continue our unparalleled record of the year before. nd has been the keynote of our vigorous As Juniors, with Donald Ingle as president, we surprised even ourselves in our achievements. With two years of experience, we distinguished ourselves even more in athletics, literary societies, musical organizations, and all other school activities. The Juniors' Show, which was given on the first of April to raise funds for the re- ception for the seniors, was an immense success. The reception itself was an unusual one, and gave pleasure and satisfaction to all. So we completed our first three years with a reputation of bein.g clever, industrious, and successful at everything we undertook. We have mounted to the stars through difficulties, and have at last attained our coveted goal-Seniors! As dignified seniors, with Wilson Kinney as president, we again distinguished our- selves by electing the Carthaginian Queen from our class, as a reward for our unusual efforts in the contest in selling 'tickets for the Carthaginian Benefit Play. We, also, were .well represented on the Debating Team and on the Championship Football Team. Judgflflg the future by the past, we do not hesitate to say that our Senior Convoca- tion will be unparalleled, and that our class play will reflect the splendid spirit an.d talent of the class. fWhen-we look beyond. the portals of our dear old C. H. S., into the future, we feel con ident that our class will continue the dazzling career of success which has crowned our four years' work in Carthage High School, nd 4 F ,mu I I ' ill . . If .

Our president, proving his capability in that office, was again elected as leader in this, our sophomore year.

O Land! O, Land! For all the broken-hearted. The mildest herald by our faith allotted, Beckons, and with inverted torch doth stand To lead us with a gentle hand To the land of the great departed Into the Silent Land. -Adaptedfrom The Silent Land, Longfellow.

Probably the mo t t l h ' ' 1 ' s cove ec onors a debating club may attain are places on the C H S debating team. The Clay Club furnished one of the representatives on the team, John Schlecht, this being his second year as a team debater. Armor Hill, also a Clay Club member, was awarded a place on the second team. In other activities-Carthaginian, musical, athletics-the Clay Club excels Practicall N - y every one of its members holds some position of honor in the school activities. .TO MT- ETOWH, its adviser, the club Wishes to extend its sincere thanks for his advice and criticism. an ' , 1 f - ,MM ,, ., f .- V- x i x 2 r I 73 Webster Debating Club Faculty Adviser-P.

The second year of organization one member of the alternative debating team was a member of this club 5 the third year both alternates were Websterians' and this year this club furnished one member of the debating team and one alt rn te., e a This steady progress is not surprising, when the worthy purposes for the organ- ization of the Webster are considered, To promote oratory and debatin in Cay-tha . 25 ge High School, and to educate its members in parliamentary procedure and public speak- ing.

Mary Margaret Yarbrough Notes The Dramatic Club was organized on September 18, 1924, with Miss Jessie Cary as our able faculty adviser. The purpose of the club is to promote a greater under- standing and comprehension of lives about us through character study and interpre- a ion. Unusual interest and originality has been shown by the rou Wr't' d , g p 1 ing an pro- ducing plays. The club has been Well represented in school affairs, taking a major part in the Carthaginian Benefit Plays. Although the Dramatic Club is in its infancy, We expect to gain renown in the years to come.

Seniors of the Carthage High School Still contend, as well we may, That we form a glorious army Of the knighthood of today. We are all arrayed in armor, Not of metal true and tried, But an armor of preparedness, Which we wear with equal pride. We can boast no snow white charger, Prancing gallantly along, We are borne by our ambitions, Just as noble and as strong. And though, no golden aim doth spur us, With our present foes to cope, We are urged into life's battles By a calm and fearless hope. No bright colored plume is waving From a dark, bronze-crested head, For a helmet 'Wrought of knowledge, We have learned to use instead. With our shield of reputation And our sword of honor brightg With our lance of courage flashing, We stand ready for the fight. We are bound for college hardships, For life's tournaments and fraysg Yet we stand prepared and fearleSS As those knights of other days.

'I The Subterranean Vault fRaymond Tomlinsonj My life is one of misery-h0pG- less, remorseful, excrutiating misery. And yet I once p0S- sessed the full measure of happi- ness to which the race of men can attain. I have not, during my life-, been blest with a large fortune. But this, in itself, 0011161 never have reduced me to my present state of hopelessness. This, in itself, could never have produced in my mind a torture to which the hor- rors of Dante's Inferno are bliss supreme. Seven short years ago, which seem to me seven eternities, I was blest with a beautiful wife, the consummation of the most ardent of armours, who gave to me three beautiful and radiant chil- dren. We lived together in a small cottage on the outskirts of a booming, western mining camp. Buoyantly enthusiastic in my visions of future happiness and financial independence for my wife and my dear children, I resolved to engage in the then profitable business of zinc mining, starting at the bottom of the ladder as a common miner in the Lucky Z mine. I worked for several months in this lowly capacity, not becoming wealthy, of course, but still providing the neces- sities of life for my family and gaining much valuable knowledge of the business of mining. One day while I was diligently pursuing my labors, I was startled by an exclamation of won- der and surprise from one of my fellow workers. I immediately dropped my implements and ran to the opposite side of the large pile of ore where he was working. I expect no one to have credence in the sight which I beheld. Indeed, my own mind is continually filled with doubts upon the subject. P9I'haPS if Was Some phantasmagoric imagina- tion, causing my senses to be permeated with the influence of the peculiar odor of the rotting heaps of miasma which littered the interior of the enclosure upon which my companion was S0 steadfastly gazing, as to recall to my mind my early conceptions of Moses standing on the moun- tain viewing the vast land of Canaan, which hg was never to enjoy along with his people, Be this as it may, I can only relate what my en- feebled intellect recalls. 84 Looking beyond the immovable figure of my confounded companion, I saw rows upon rows of ghastly, ghoul-like skeletons, whose grinning skulls were every one crowned by a glittering coronet of--as we could perceive even in the murky gloom of the cavern-pure gold, set with the most prodigious and glittering of rare and valuable gems. Firmly grasped in their long claw-like fingers were sceptres of purest gold. Upon the ankles of these terrible spectres shone heavy anklets of the same dull, yellow metal. At the feet of each of these forms lay heaps of fine dust, which my now fully awakened comrade and I recognized as the remains of regal habili- 1 ments. But we lingered only for a moment to View this ghastly array of long-forgotten dead and hur- ried on to a massive door carved in the rocky wall of the cavern. This we could not budge, in spite of our almost herculean efforts. After tugging and straining for the better part of an hour at this formidable barrier, my comrade leaned in utter exhaustion against the musty wall immediately to the right of the portal. Simultaneously with this motion, a thunderous and most ungodly creaking and protestation against this disturbance of its evidently untold centuries of rest, broke forth from the still mas- sive, bronze hinges of the great door. My com- panion had unwittingly touched an ingeniously devised spring which had immediately effected ourpurpose of opening the gigantic door. Immediately beyond the door, there beamed 2 strange light w-hich my experienced eyes imme- diately conceived to be the light afforded by phos- phorescent sources. Becoming accustomed to this sudden illumination, we preceived that it PTO' ceeded from some source immediately be yond all abrupt bend in a long corridor, lined on each side by shelves which contained huge rims of m0Sl beautiful and artistically decorated earthenware- These receptacles were each filled to the brim with monstrous, precious stones: rubies, emeralds, SHP' phires and a multitude of strange and unkn0WU brilliants. After pausing for a moment to ga-Ze at this super-Solomic array we hurried on to the beckoning, 'thmlgh 8'h0St1y and unnatural, liflhi of the next chamber. Therewg glory of glories, O majesty of ma- jegties, O culmination of most fabulous dreams of Super-abundance, sat, enthroned on a great dais of ebony and gold, a motionless figure bedecked with ornaments which could have easily surpassed jp value the enormous ransoms of Montezuma, emperor of the affluent nation of Aztecs. This figure, unlike that of those in the first chamber we had visited, was not of human form, but was 3 Cyclopic reproduction of some few images which we had observed the natives of Southern Arizona worshipping. But the most stupendous of all his array was a large and perfectly formed emerald, resting easily in his outstretched palm, which my companion immediately coveted. As my comrade snatched at the glittering gem, a scream of greater volume and terror-inspiring qualities than that of the Christians sacrificed to the wild beasts of Nero, broke forthfrom the rigid, lips of the great idol. We felt the floor of the chamber rising beneath our feet and were deposited on a ledge of rough stone. Immediate- ly the great image again resumed its position, without, however, the great emerald which my fellow Workman had snatched from its palm. We then endeavored to examine our surroundings as well as possible by the dim light of the cavern. The first sight that met our eyes was a dim, gray light at the farther extremity of the ledge. We hurried toward this spot, hoping to find an escape from our now thoroughly terrifying sur- roundings, and found a narrow, stone staircase rising almost perpendicularly for a distance of approximately a hundred feet. Being careful not to stumble on the debris which had collected on the Steps from their long disuse, we mounted the Steps and, on reaching the summit, found our- selves standing on another platform from which ascended still another flight of steps. As we set Out to mount these, we stumbled over some dim Object and fell heavily to the floor. I When We arose from our fall, we shrank back ln horror at the sight of two skeletons lying out- Sfretched, at the very foot of the stairs. Each had his fingers clasped about the throat of the Other- Between them was an earthen pot in which We found large quantities of brilliants of the Same fnegfnitude and beauty as those in the sec- Znfl 01 the frightful chambers, through which we an passed in our ghostly pilgrimage. We stood at of list of those wliadlhavad been haqded to the long hands of that e il etmet t err deaths at the the Stair V mofls ef, Avarice, then climbed s and stood in silent wonder looking at 3 large P001 of motionless, dark water immedi- ately below us. At a loss to understand the still- ness of the water, we sought the cause of its be- mg held back from motion. We saw at length the end of the stream, against which appeared to us to be a blank wall. We swam across to an- other ledge which was built against the wall about two feet from the termination of the water and three feet from the surface. Clambering up- OU the ledge, my companion espied another of the strange levers which served as keys to the an- cient doors of the unknown builders of the re- markable cavern. When he pushed the mechan- ism, the gate swung open and exposed to our gaze the valley in which we had lived, far down be- low us. V But We ignored the peaceful scene before us, clinging to each other in a paroxysm of fear and horror, for the entire body of water which we had released was precipitated upon the unsus- pecting inhabitants. Like the irrevocable deluge of Niagara, the huge stream belched forth from the silent mountain upon the defenseless valley. The hoistermen of the mines had barely time to bring the laborers out of the ground when all were engulfed in the raging flood. Instinctively directing my eyes to the little cottage which held all that I held dear, I saw my wife and children clinging to each other in helpless fear. Then, with a gloating and most horrible roar the en- gulfing flood swept them off their feet and car- ried them along with its other victims. I threw my hands over my face and tried to blot out the terrible scene. When I again looked out upon the valley, I beheld only a quiet lake, lying mock- ingly quiet below us. I have no more to say. My life holds n.o more of interest or ambition. In some way, which h21S never become clear to me, my cornpani0H and I precipitated ourselves into the flood and came out alive on another point on the hill, from whence we made our way to the next village, where the inhabitants would have immediately locked us up for insane men had it not been for the evidence of the great emerald which my fellow workman had in some Way retained- 85 i The First Affair fDulcie Simpsonb O-ur English teacher has re- quested that we write a theme, choosing for our subject 2113'- thing of a serious nature, so I'm going to write about a tragedy that happened recently in my life. This subject I think will be very beneficial to my fellow freshmen. One afternoon a few weekS ago, I was feeling very lonely, and was wondering what I could do to change this awful monotony, when, suddenly, I thought of an idea. I would fall in love. Being fourteen years old I saw no reason why I could not. I had no idea how to proceed, but there would be no harm in asking some one. There was mother-but, no, she would consider it just a joke, when I really was serious. At last I decided to ask Cousin Elizabeth. She's about twenty-one, and has had ample experience along that line. I rather thought she was en- gaged, but had never seen her so-called fiance, When I told Elizabeth, at first she thought I was fooling, and only laughed, saying: Emma Lou, you'll be getting married next. Finally I convinced her that I was realy serious, so she gave me a list of rules which she said were guaranteed to be successful. The first requirement read, The victim should be older than the pursuer, and preferably unknown to her. The only person I knew of this descrip- tion, was our next door neighbor who had moved in about three days before. As he had graduated from college last spring, I assumed he would be about the right age. The next one was a great deal harder. It said, The first meeting should be accidental for the best results. The next morning, as I was com- ing from the grocery store, well loaded down with packages, and trying to dodge mud-puddles, as it had rained the night before, I hit upon a scheme. Mr. Richard Smith, that being the name of my aforesaid victim, was walking behind me. I'd just drop my handkerchief, and of course he would Pick it UP and return it to me. I could imagine him approaching me sayingg Excuse me, Miss Phelps, I believe thig is yours. 86 To which I would reply very SWSGUY, Oh, YGS- Thank you, Mr. Smith. I am very much obliged. Then he would answer, Forget it. I have been anxiously waiting an opportunity- , but just then my feet slipped from under me and I sat down, right in the middle of a mud-puddle, my packages going in every possible direction. The next thing I realized, someone was picking me up, and say- in : iWell, if it isn't my little, next door neighbor. Are you hurt ? I knew immediately who it was, but I seriously resented the way he called me alittle. After I had convinced him I wasn't hurt, and he had picked up my packages, he walked the rest of the way home with me. He talked all the time, but, of the conversation I could remember little, only that he asked me to call him Dick, as we were neighbors. I was too busy thinking of my acci- dental meeting, and my muddy hands, dress, stockings, and all the restof me, to listen to the rest. When I got home I phoned Elizabeth and told her of my results. She said I was progressing marvelously and promised me a picture of Dick, which she said she had, as they had gone to the same school, and she was slightly acquainted with him. I was tickled to death to get the picture for by that time I was madly in love. Luck certainly was with me that afternoon, for when I arrived home from school, there, sitting in the parlor talking to mother, was Dick. He had brought me a box of candy, and was asking mother if he could take me to the theatre that night. ,I-Ie said he and a friend were going, and as he had an extra ticket he thought maybe I would like to go along with them, For a wonder mother said I could go, and Dick promised to be around for me at eight o'clock. At seven-thirty the loveliest bouquet of roses I had intended it to be, and maybe, as Elizabeth began to think this was getting more serious than I had intended it to be, and maybe as Elizabeth had said, I would be getting married next. I knew father would never consent to that, but wouldn't it be thrilling to elope and get my name in the headlines of the evening paper? Dickfame DTOUIPUY at eight o'clock. I-Ie seemed to be ln 3 Very good humor, and even remarked lqgkv sweet I looked. I didn't tell him I had my best clothes on just for him. I didn't think it Wise to let him see I cared too much for him, yet. I felt so thrilled as we walked down to the carg but this feeling didn't last long, for, as he opened the door, there, sitting in the front seat, I saw- Elizabeth. I politely asked her what she was doing there, and almost cried when she replied, Why, dear, is there any objection ? You see Dick and I are going to get married real soon. I looked at Dick hoping he would say it wasn't so or something, but he just said Lucky man, aren't I. I then saw the trick they had played on me, and almost lost my temperg but realized ers worse. I tried to it would only make matt look real glad, and said I hoped they would b happy, me-Hnihg it for sarcasm. e When Dick Promised me I could be flower girl and Elizabeth said she would have a new sillg dress made for me for the occasion, I began to feel a little better, and finally decided that it was I who had been the fool. Of Course, Pm glad Dick's my cousin now, and he is just lovely to me, but, freshmen, take my advice don't fall in love, and if you do, doyyt ask help, especially from cousins. .Mrs Pass It On I When you read anything that you think might be of help to some other person--and that he might otherwise never see-do you clip it out and send it to him? It would be a good plan for every large business house to encourage this cus tom among its employees-especially among those in charge of a division of the business. Hundreds of good suggestions are to be found in the thous ands of papers and magazines which fall like snow-flakes on every hand. It's clearly imbos sible for any one person to read them all. But if two hundred persons were making a memoranda of their observations it would virtually give each the benefit of the good thought discovered by all I am never more pleased than when some friend points out to me a new item which I can adapt to my special needs. Many a time have I f0UT1'd just what I wanted in a clipping sent to me by some kind friend. Some of the best suggeS'C10I1S which I have ever received have 001116 to U19 through clippings from newspapers and mafia zines. WALDO PONDRAY WARREN J Cigarettes or Baskeiballn fAngus Springefl Have a cigarette, Bill? in- quired an acquaintance. Nothing doing, declared Bill f Stephens, You know Pm iY1 training. Aw, don't be a sissy, said another smart guy, HI Smoke and it don't hurt my wind. Still Bill refused. Aw, come on and let mamma's little man alone, sneered the first, he might ruin his pretty little self. . Bill flushed angrily, then laughed. All right, just one, remember, he said. Bill Stephens was one of the most promising basketball players,Ward City High ever had. He was a fast, shifty player, and he was full of the old fight, the old school spirit was there. He had red hair and a batch of freckles. But for all his strength of character, he had one fatal weak- ness, a fondness for cigarettes. He knew they were harmful to his playing, and he meant not to use them 5 but what could he do when the fellows tormented him? Thus he excused his weakness. As Bill and his cronies stood on the corner smoking, there chanced by a girl whom Bill ad- mired very much, named Jean Morris. Bill Stephens, she cried, What are you doing with that cigarette ? Why, I'm smoking itf' Bill declared, foolishly. Throw it away this instant! Then, catching sight of the smirks on the surrounding faces, she stormed passionately: You cowards! Have you no respect for anybody? Don't you know that smoking will cut his wind so he can't play? Have you no school spirit, that you'll rob Ward of its best player, whom it needs so badly? You ought to be ashamed of yourselves. Softening sud- .denly, Bill, walk with me a little way, she said. Bill, she began, Won't you quit it? The schoolfneeds you. We've got to beat Benton and win the Championship. We can't without you. Aw, it don't hurt me any, he muttered sullenly, I can play just as well. Bill, you can't. You must know it hinders your playing the game. It means 'cigarettes or basketball! You can take your choice. Either you 88 quit smoking and play the game, Or you quit play- ing and degrade yourself, heart and soul. And until you quit smoking, I'll never speak to you again. With these last words and a defiant toss of her pretty head, she proudly walked away, leaving Bill staring after her, moodily and rather sullen. Oh, darn! he growled, Girls don't understand nothin'. I'll'show her I can play just as well, even if I do smoke. In his heart he knew he couldn't, but he was in just that mood. All that week he stayed in this same mood, and he kept right on smoking. He'd show her, all right. Coach Ross noted all this, but he kept his peace, why, he hardly knew himself. Bill's play- ing grew worse and worse. That Friday, Ward played its first game. Bill played the first half, and then he was done. All during the last half he sat on the bench realizing his defeat, and bit- terly condemning himself. Snatching victory from defeat, Ward finally won that game. After it was all over, and the boys were in the locker room, Coach Ross, laying a kindly hand on the lad's shoulder, told him gently: I'm sorry, Bill, but we can't use you on the squad any longer. The effect of cigarettes is harmful to you and demoralizing to the players. On my team it is either cigarettes or basketball. With bowedhead, Bill was gone. ' - Bill didn't. sleep that night. He tossed about on his bed, thinking. He began to realize how wrong he had been. Jean was right, he mused to himself, It's 'cigarettes or basketball! It can't be both. I'll never smoke another cigarette. The next day being Saturday, Bill took a long hike into the woods. He stood on the bank of the river and threw rocks into the water, ,thought- fully. That afternoon he felled a great tree on his father's farm, and cut wood until his arms and back ached. That night he slept the sleep of the exhausted and of one with mind at peace. All that next week, in the afternoons, one could see Bill Stephens jogging down the country roads, with an air of bulldog determination. No amount of ridicule or mockery could induce him to look at another cigarette. Coach Ross looked on with quiet satisfaction 3 Jean with a little smile. Dm-ing the evenings, if one happened to pass Bills house, he could see a red-haired lad looping 3 large ball into a hoop, nailed against a white back-board on a tree. One could see this same boy dribble across the lawn, pivot quickly and shoot the basket, or pass to a small brother, who also had ambitions. These practices lasted until after dark each night. If one could read the inner- workin0's of Bill's mind, it could be told that Bill thought basketball all his wakeful hours and dreamed it at night. Ward lost its next game after a hard battle. The Monday after that game, just before practice began, a red-headed boy, with blazing eyes and locked jaw, addressed a certain man with a steady, clear voice: 'fCoach Ross, I want another chance. I swear that I'll never touch another cigarette again. The man searched the unflinching eyes for a long minute, then answered quietly: Report for practice in ten minutes. Then he turned away. Nine consecutive games Ward High won, The papers lauded the achievement and gave the credit to Bill Stephens. He paid no attention to the flatteryg he only trained the harder and played the harder. His old companions saw him no more. The game of games came at lastg the game with Benton for the championship. The dope little favored either team. Each had won ten and lost Oflly One game. But the students of Ward con- sidered that their one game would not have been :ist with the aid of Bill Stephens. It was up to im to make good. The school gymnasium was packedg tier after tier of humanity. When the home team came on the floor, the din could be heard for blocks, if thereihad been anybody, any place' but there, to hear it. Shrill cries and deep roars mingled with 311118368 and stamping feet. The whole town was ere. The whistle shrilled. The gray-shirted center for Benton out-leaped the blue of Ward. The ball fell into the hands of a Benton forward, who Whlfled and threw. The ball went squarely through the hoop. Followed yells of triumph f1'01:1joreign rooters. The famous yell of Ward -'EHS ouc. W-All the first half was a veritable nightmare to ard supporters. The team had gone to pieces fOr the first time that year. The defense crum- bled before Benton's great attack. The offense I10t working, the short pass invariably landed nlgtthsl 11111651 of a Benton player. The boys coulld A' 01' e ball into striking distance of t e gabketi and their shots from the field were sel- tom lnade. The half ended 28-7 in favor of Ben- our B111 having made only two field goals. The players ran to the dressing room mid 3 great silence. The Ward supporters saw Stark defeat .and disgrace before them. And the boys were discouraged and down-hearted. Coach Ross didn't say much. All that he did Say Were .words of encouragement rather than sar- casm or irony. That wasn't his way, He talked Quietly to each one separately, urging- him to do his best. Jean pleaded with Bill alone: Bill, it's up to YOU- Y0u've got to win this game, for Ward and for me. To do it you'll have to fight every sec- ond of these remaining twenty minutes. You'll have to play harder than you ever played befgye. I know you'll come through. Let's go! r Bill did not answer. But his eyes were blazing, in a way they had when he was aroused. The girl read the story in them and was satisfied. The whistle sounded the last half. For the first time that night the Ward center outjumped his taller opponent. QThe Benton man did not Outjump him again that night.J The ball settled into the hands of Bill Stephens, who dribbled twice, and threw. The ball went through the loop without touching the rim. The roar that followed was deafening. Students delight in telling the story of that third quarter. Such marvelous feats as were at- tributed to the warriors of the blue have never been seen in Ward City, and the playing of Bill Stephens outshone the rest. Like a flash of light, his red hair wove in and out among his opponents, but they could not stop him. They tried to smother him, but to no avail. Whenever Bill got his hands on the ball, the score keepers chalked up two points. Moreover, his team-work stood out. He did not gran.dstand and shoot whenever he had the ball. He threw it quickly and hard to a team-mate, but when the ball had been worked down under the goal, it W21S Bi11'S unerring hands that tossed it through the basket. All that quarter was played midst a terrific roa.r of the onlookers, while the referee tried in vain to quiet the mob. The third quarter ended with the score 31-28 in favor of Ward. Benton hadn't made a point. The first five minutes of the last quarter f011Hd Benton taking great chances. They threw the ball from the far end of the court, and it seemed the gods were with them.

It is and ever will be of in- valuable importance that the continually rising generations realize, understand, and utilize the significance and necessity of education and its relation to suc- cess. During the last half cen- tury, educators and men of prominence have hammered and pounded this relation into the public mind continuously. For this reason, perhaps, this essay may seem needless, but one cannot resist the call to express one's thoughts to his fellow students. - In this brief discussion, education and success must each be treated separately before we con- sider their relationship, and in the meantime let us think of each element in its broadest and least restricted sense. Education is a life-long training and process. Directed mental training virtually ceases when the student leaves college or High school, only as a result of social or economic conditions in the student's environment, and not because-the mind is fully developed or incapable of further training. The very title of -graduation, commencement, emphasizes the fact that in mental life there is no age. There is merely more or less experience in growth and maturity. When we regard edu- 90 -Addison, Cato, I ii. cation as the unfolding of the knowledge of life to the individual, rather than as a mere cramming with academic facts and learning, age and exper- ience become one, so that the greater a man's ex- perience, the more educated he is and abler to understand life and continue his elucation. In spite of all difficulties, education is swiftly advancing into its proper relationship with human endeavor. No longer is it thought of as the ex- clusive right of a privileged class nor as a grudg- ing concession to another. The aim, which true ed- ucation and educators are endeavoring to achieve, vizualizes making man better than he is and granting him more love and more feeling for the beautiful, the great, and the true. It must be admitted here that man is no longer concerned with making mere livelihood and physical suste- nance the aim of educationg but rather to make it the full expression and meaning of world cit- izenship toward which he may .direct his energies- But what is education 'Z What does the term mean? Or is it definable? Authors and edu- cators do not all agree concerning the answer to this question. One author is convinced that edu- cation must mean a gradual adjustment to the spiritual possessions of the race, with the object of realizing one's own powers and assisting in Carrying forward that complex of ideas, acts, in- stitutions, and betterment which we call civiliza- ,E tion. Other authors define education as the re- building or reorganization of experience, which adds to the significance of experience, and which increases the capability to direct the course of subsequent experience. Although a technical defi- nition of education may be reached, it, never- theless, may readily be seen that education is more easily described than defined. The most highly educated man is he who is most free, far- thest-sighted, broadest-minded, strongest and sin- cerest in purpose, and kindest among his fellow men. To be highly educated is to desire truth, admire beauty, and love goodness. To desire truth is to seek out the facts and abandon the falsities clearly exposed by the truths. To ad- mire beauty is to penetrate the depths of the harmonies and concords of Nature and Art, and to appreciate their value, order and fitness. To love goodness is to avoid sin in search for right- eousness. This man is not only well educated, but he is a true success in life. Here we have reached an opportune point to consider this element. The purpose of systematic education is to de- velop a successful life. Success is almost in- comprehensible in its magnitude and in its va- riety. It is not always a matter of the entire life nor a matter of general achievement. It is not always a matter involving conformity to the personal morality of the times, nor is it a mat- ter of recognition at the time, and seldom is it evidenced by accumulations of property. Frank- lin, Washington, Webster, and Lincoln we call successful. Aristotle, Augustus Caesar, Napol- eon and Hawthorne are acclaimed successes. Each one was a success in his own peculiar situation and life work and in no way similar to the others as a success. Doubtless in the world today there are thousands, living their lives cleanly, help- fully, possibly humbly. Neither in their days on this earth nor in the days succeeding their de- Parture will the true success of most of these People be revealed to the world. Yet, according to the measure of their worth and service and ac- cording to our Standards they should be called Successful. These examples but demonstrate that what might be determined as a successful life is extremely variable. We can picture the ideal in this as in any Other concrete class. I would hail as a true suc- cess in life, a man who has lived a long, useful life, finding satisfaction in that life? who had desired freedom and had granted it, who loved the truth and dealt not in lies, who recognized justice first and then mercy, honeSty first and then generosity, who rendered to the world in product and in . . , injured none more than himself, desiring- to ju- Jure not even himself, who met triumph and service more than he received- who disaster on the same level, who learned sympathy, Courage, f01'l3itUfl9, and patience through his hu- man trials, who promised only in his power of Pe1'f01'Ulal1C9, and Changed not his promise, and who rejoiced to be a servant of God. Such a successful man would be followed by wealth, honor, and praise, as natural subsequents, and after his death, his life becomes a delightful and pleasing memory. 0bVi0US1Y, therefore, true success, which is the Only kind of success to be regarded, is large- ness of life, which, as stated above, is an idea varying with all varieties of individuals. Now, we have reached the essential point in our dis- cussion. We have investigated education, we have glanced at success. But what is their relation- ship ?-of what importance is education to suc- cess? Successful people are usually thoughtful people. In real life most personsare not thoughtful, and therefore, are not essentially successful. Thus arises the great difficulty today for a system of education to be devised, that arouses and organ- izes activity in insight and outlook, and thereby produces the thoughtful. This is the function of education. Education is not an end itself-it is a means. Life, however, is such an end-an effective and successful life. To contribute to and create the fullness of life is the purpose of edu- cation, which is limited only in its own methods and in the educability of the individual. Clearly the fact appears that to be successful, one must be intelligent, efficient, and righteous? and it needs no argument to prove that intelligence, efficiency, and righteousness are the p1'0duCtS of extensive education. A present-day Senator voices an appeal of the nation: Today, as never before, our country calls for leadership, practical in its manifestations, but idealistic in its ambitions. If idealistic am- bitions are ever created, they are created by edu- cation. Listen to the call, my friends, obey the Com' mand. Avail yourself of every chance to con- tinue your education. Grasp YOUI' OPIJOUJUWUQS now and mold your own life into a successful one. Let not the calls of America and Democracy fall unheeded. Education is the wealth and future protection of our country, for successful leadelrs must and will guide our Ship of State with me aid of successful citizens-and these are the DY0' ducts and outcome of Education. 9I My First Airplane Ride fRichard McMur'tryJ About two years ago an airplane came to Car- thage to do stunts and to take passengers. I had always wanted to ride in one, but the fee was too large for my pocketbook. But, at least I could go to the landing field and watch the plane as- cend and descend with its passengers. This I did. It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon in April-an ideal day for flying. Two planes were on the field when I arrived. They were decorated in a coat of silvery paint, and as I got closer the sun shone on them at an angle that made the planes glisten and sparkle. All 'this made me want to ride more than had I ever be- fore. As one plane soared into the air, the roar of its powerful motor sent a slight thrill through my being. I had left home with only two dollars. The charge for each passenger was five dollars, so I had left three dollars at home for fear I might be tempted to adventure into the air. And, I sus- pect I would have gone up soon after I arrived, had I only had the money. As it happened I went to the landing field at two o'clock, and at five I was still there, more or less tired, but still ad- miring the great human-made birds. First one plane would fly, then the other. Some- times both would be in the air at one time. They looked to me like small dark objects soaring in the distance. When one of the planes had descended I no- ticed quite a number of people talking to the man who had just gone up. I joined the little crowd and listened to what he had to say about his sky voyage. He told of all the things he saw-but at first could not recognize, how the trees appeared only as small shrubs, streets as mere footpaths, until, finally, I left this group of people and talked with more passengers. Then I found that the aviators would fly with passen- gers for only two dollars and fifty cents apiece. In this way they could take two people at one time. After a number had gone up for this fee, I found a boy who would go with me, borrowed fifty cents and was soon sitting in the cockpit of the ship, with the motor roaring nobly, and I, all ready to make the first airplane flight of my life. As a jest, some folks near the plane told me G00flbYH Saying if I didn't come back, they would take my belongings, etc. I didn't give this 92 talk much attention, I was waiting to experience every move the plane would make. Finally, the big ship began to move. Soon we were moving at a terrific speed, the plane began to leave the earth, and we were fast leaving a great, open space between the plane and our ob- jects below., The roar from the great engine just in front of us was all but deafening, and if either of us put our head or hand on the side of the plane, the wind from the propeller would force it back with great power. As I looked through the two wings of the air- plane, I could see many houses and trees that looked ever so tiny. It all seemed too wonderful to be so high above everything. In the distance, the Court House stood high above the green mass of trees, like a mammoth, white monument erected in the center of the city. In the extreme back- ground of what I saw to my left, was the South- west Missouri Fair grounds. The grandstand and the half-mile race track, were mere playthings, as it appeared from above. The race track seemed, as my fellow companion expressed it, only a cow path. The paved streets of Carthage ap- peared as long, white chalk lines, all on the same level. The lanes in City Park could plainly be seen through the mass of trees. By this time we were turned around and were heading for the landing field. The county farm buildings seemed extremely small-such as might be pictured to the readers of a Fairy Tale. The people on the flying field could now be seen, but they moved as microbes might under a powerful microscope, as we approached them. The pilot caused the plane to lean, which at once gave me a feeling I never had experienced before in any way. The ground appeared to be pointing at all angles, and for a few seconds my head was in a whirl. But the pilot quickly righted his ship and we slowly began to descend. Once he made the plane dip and I was certain my heart had found a new location to beat away its never tiring thumps -in my mouth. A The ground came nearer and nearer, we glided over a small tree, and at last, with a slight thud, the wheels touched old Mother Earth, rolling us alfmg to where the crowd was assembled. .Our ride was en.ded. My companion expressed his pleasure with the trip, and, certainly, I did. I think I will never forget my first airplane ride- what I had long wished would befall me, and had now experienced. An Ideal Summer Camp QBy Elizabeth McReynoldsJ On one of the many beautiful lakes in northern msconsin, is situated a girl's camp, on a bluff- like, rounded point of land rising about fifty feet above the water's edge. Here for eight weeks of the summer season, girls come to enjoy swim- ming, athletics, canoe trips and wholesome, social comradeship. It seems a long time, during the winter season, before summer finally comes. But when it does come, there are so many things to do. I think, the ideal pleasure is found in a summer camp. Time passes all too fast for everyone, and the two months are gone before we know it. They have been crammed full of so many wonderful and happy events and friendships, that we find our- selves wishing the good times would not end and friends separate, perhaps, never to meet again. To describe in detail this camp would not help you to see it as it really is, but here are some interesting facts. A clear, open space has been cut from the thick forest for the athletic field on which are the hockey, tennis, and basketball courts. The Lodge, which is the main building, is where the assemblies and sings are held in the assembly room. There, also, are the li- brary, hospital rooms, kitchens and dining rooms. The girls have living and sleeping quarters in six bungalows which are along the edge of the bluff by the shore line. The daily schedule includes swimming, athletics, arts and crafts, nature lore. Special events sched- uled are: Canoe and hiking trips, treasure hu11ts, pageant-s, banquets. There are so many interesting events-espec- ially after we have all worked so hard to pass tests. There is the water carnival with demon- strations and beautifully decorated canoesg aqua- Dlaningg motorboat rides in the moonlightg the Swimming meet, and the canoe races, and the sea- Son ends with the track meet, tennis tournament, and archery contest. There are canoe and hiking trips of two, three and six days. On hiking trips We blazed trails and once followed a trail blaZ6Cl by French explorers in the sixteenth century. Everyone is in camp, from the trips, for Satur- day Night stunts. Each tent is given a chance to show the talents of all its girls. We all look for- ward to the evenings when everyone comes to the assembly hall for a sing or maybe 9' Special talk by someone But the best of all is when, on Sunday evenings, the whole camp goes on a picnic to some other lake. After a picnic lunch, pre- pared by a certain group of girls, we learn new songs that trips brought in, or perhaps have im- promptu stunts. Then there is arts-and-crafts. There are so many things to work with: reed, baskets, trays, paints, pine cones and needles. In Nature Lore W9 Study and identify trees, birds, flowers and plants. On treasure hunts, we have to use all of our knowledge of nature lore to follow directions, too. Toward the last of every season practice for the annual pageant is begun. This is given in the natural amphitheatre by the lake. Many peo- ple attend from the neighboring country to see it. All good stories have exciting climaxes-so does this one. It happens the night before we leave camp, for that is the night of the annual banquet. After the dinner and toasts, the honors are an- nounced. There are emblems, rings, and an Honor Cup for the Honor Girl. Everyone holds her breath until the very last, there are gasps of surprise an-d sighs of relief, but everyone is sat- isfied in the end. Then comes the night all are leaving: we are so glad to go home, but we are sad to leave our camp-Minne Wonka! !

Our community has been acknowledged the most beautiful, the most enter- prising, the most progressive in public affairs, and one of the best educational cities in this part of Missouri. We live here and we are proud of it. But, in our pride, we must not be carried away with the belief that there is nothing else in the world worth while to see or hear about or better than that to which we are accustomed. Indeed, the more we view, the more we are able to imagine there is to be seen, and the more we imagine, the less, we know, we have seen. Such is the logic of seeing and knowing, and, so, we must sometimes allow ourselves to be led away for a visit to an- other land-a land of work and industry, or per- haps, a land of play and fun. I cheerfully extend an invitation to you to come with me for a care-free visit to a Hfairyland re- turned to earth. But first you must utilize your imagination to the utmost, and, even then, it will be impossible to grasp and understand the fun- damental spirit and life of this make-believe par- adise-yet your most vivid imagination is essen- tial for the success of our visit. Lay aside all your cares and worries, forget your age and class consciousness, and come with me in a chariot of care-free imaginations. Do not forget: we are entering the land of Mardi Gras at the time of the year when King Rex rules over all in exultant merriment and happiness. Monday, February 2.3. We have arrived in New Orleans -and awake to find a pleasant day greeting us. We start to the business section of the city. All along the six miles of the way we pass beautiful Southern homes. It is a typical mid-winter Louisiana dayg the grass, everywhere, a velvet carpet of deep green, all kinds of flowers blooming, and the stately palms blowing to and fro in the gentle breezes. A garden of paradise, indeed. In the business district of the Crescent City is a complete preparedness for the coming Carnival -flees and the queer Carnival Club banners, long rows of lights everywhere, raised balconies for the SP9Ctaf0TS, and many lavish decorations. We wander up and down Canal street, watching the 94 crowds and seeing the different points of interest. Strange is it to hear the constant chattering in the peculiar, but fascinating Southern dialect and to hear the expostulating negro-laborer plead with his mules, lazily drawing the laden wagon over the cobblestones of the adjacent side streets. The entire ,day we spend with the St. Charles players and the sight-seeing agents. But more fun is it to explore the old French' quarter of the city, alone. Many interesting places we seeg each unexpected discovery brings a satisfaction of its own. We may visit the Cabildo, the St. Louis Cathedral, and the presbytere, we may roam through Jackson square and View the old Pontalba apartmentsg or we may study the Patio Royal and the antique shops on -Royal and Carondalet streets. Each has its own charm and enticement. Later on we must visit the docks and wharves with the many ships from every port of the world, and the uptown and downtown with their -innum- erable sights. In this way we see New Orleans as it is the year round. The day passes quickly and we find ourselves again on Canal street. Immense crowds are fill- ing the streets, pouring in from every direction. The brilliant lights are flashed on, and the street becomes a living torch. The public car service having been checked, Canal street is filled with people, and everyone is seeking a position near the curb of the automobile ways. But whom are they awaiting? Aha! This is the night of Pro- teus, the ,deep-sea god, who comes forth from the sea with his mystic Krewe. Out of his misty den the monarch comes, bow- ing, scraping, and smirking, as kings must do in these days of bolshevism and democracy. Straight down the avenue his procession files, floats and bands, policemen and blacks, the latter in their red cowls and gowns and carrying gasoline flam- beaux and title cards, so the spectators may know what it is all about. Down the avenue King Proteus advances, ac- Companied by his monsters and all his subjects. He seems brilliant, glowing, glimmering, corus- Catiflg, Phosphorescent, a radiant flame. Span- gles and splendor, luster, sheen, shimmer, glosS, and tinsel are the charms with which he awes his happy slaves into another year of loyalty. In Old Japan he gathered his subject matter and J material. A blue and pink title car, swarming with butterflies and sprinkled with cherry blos- soms, which trails close behind the god, announces the theme of the pageant, Tales and Romances of Old Japan. Float after float glides by in a flood of light and a throb of music, with glittering gems from the sea-god's treasure chests sparkling with the mirth of the occasion. All is a glitter- ing spectacle, punctuated with frequent bands and trinkets scattered to the crowd from the floats. Proteus passes-the sea-god has paid his an- nual call to the city that entertains him royally, as gods should be entertained. He has shown his loyal subjects that his splendor is undimin- ished, and he now revels in the annual party for his Krewe of courtiers- The Krewe of Proteus. As for us, we trudge merrily homeward, weary from our day's fun, yet anxiously looking forward to the climax of the morrow. Tuesday, February 24. Carnival day finds us amid the crowd, bright and early. Everyone, old or young, white or black, is out for the glorious holiday. Again we ap- proach Canal street, for sooner or later the legend goes, almost everything reaches Canal. Even now the streets are full of people-but how different from yesterday. Oh yes, this is the big carnival day, the day open for promiscuous public masking in the streets. Thousands of maskers we meet. We are transported from the Hawaiian Islands to the Sultan's haremg from aside-door Pullman to the realms of Satan fstill using the imagina- tionj. The costumers are masked in the costumes of many countries and many ages- Valentino youths, gypsies, Spaniards, skeletons, tramps, and cross-word puzzles are among the list. Especially are the negroes capable of preparing ambiguous and outrageously comical or terrifying disguises. Old men, babies, animals, dignified citizens-all are among the maskers. How the time does fly. A rumbling roar in the distance foretells that King Rex is advancing. Everybody scrambles for a seeing place, but in a good-humored way. Once again Rex comes lS0 New Orleans to reign over his loyal subjects of Carnival, while all make merry in joyous I'9V91S- The coming of the King of Carnival was lavishly told in the gorgeous fetes of the ,days gone by, but the splendor of this regal train overshadows all that has been done in the past-as is fitting. in triumphal procession that climaxes the long Joumey from the kingly palace in the Far East, RSX comes into the presence of the court and the multitude and does homage to his qv-6611, Whose Pavilion is placed at the Boston Club on Canal street. Then, from an Elfin sprite, Rex receives the golden keys to the cit over which the King reigns in true, kingly fashion, Y- It is 21 gay scene D The 1'0Y31 Parade is a gorgeous product of Util- lty and Beauty- The royal float bears a thorne of gold riding upon golden waves, while tropical birds are grouped about the king to lend the brilliance of their plumage to the gorgeous scgne, The title car which follows indicates the poetry and romance to be shown in the floats which make up the procession telling the story of the Romances of Fanlandf' Each float is preceded by negroes bearing title banners upheld on carrier handles. The interesting story of fans is pic- turesquely displayed in the successive floats. Each is a dream of beauty, and each represents a living tale. Immediately followng Rex, come the various Carnival Club parades. Then the Mystic Krewe of Druidsi' present their pageant. Drawing upon forest and field, wild life and sunshine, moon- beams and ocean billows, they have chosen Won- ders of Nature as their theme. The first float shows the king seated on a golden throne, over- hung with tapestries of royal purple. The king wears the imperial crown set with jewels, and from his shoulders hangs the royal capeg rich satin, delicately embroidered with birds and flow- ers. Following the title car, the forest birds, the butterflies, lions, swans, dragons, reptiles, and humming bees are all pictured in their native haunts--a complete pageant of Nature, very beau- tifully unfolded. The morning parades are completed. The af- ternoon is given over to the maskers. Dancers find amusement in the street dances over the city. Prizes are given at the district masking contests. The several market clubs stage their parades in the districts of the city. Everywhere are Carnival and Mardi Gras. Even the negroes with their King Zulu have fun and play on South Claiborne Avenue. All the children enjoy the fl-HY, f01' to them the streets are a place of Arabian Nilllltfi Entertainment. The afternoon flits speedily to a close, and the multitude is looking for King Comus to come marching in brilliant array. The frenzied ex- pectancy, worked to a feverish Pitch bf2C21uSe,0f a slight delay, is at length rewarded with a dis- tant flame of torches. Slowly the PFOCQSSION moves forward. Comus comes, transportingttlic inhabitants of the earth to the enchanted king- dom of heart's desire, to the distant realms of phantasy-leaving the humdrum world of bitter matters and gray realities to soar the upper UW with himselfg Lord Comus, Spirit of Revelry, and 95 master of an endless train of enchanted merry' makers. In a boyver of giant, iffidosoont pfm' sies, Comus leads the way, bufteffles Slwarmljqg around him to compare their glittering wings Wlth the dazzling petals of the pansies. There follows the fiery steed Pegasus, rushing U-Pwafd through mid-ah. on his way to the far-off Realms.of Phantasy. They followed, one and all, 19-HV1H8' the spectator's mind fascinated with its splend01'- The final events are the balls: the Rex tableaux and ball, the Comus tableaux and ball, the DIU-ld ball, and the visit of Rex to the court of C0nnuS at midnight. This is Mardi Gras-a sort of free-for-all af- fair, none being barred, and from the looks of the crowds who block the streets, everyone is present and doing, or trying to do, just what he or she thinks the most appropriate under the cir- cumstances. We cannot remain a -mere spectator and continue to enjoy Carn.ival. We must be- come 3, part of it, cagt .Cut cynicism, and take on the imagination of children. Masked youth-that is it-is the spirit of Mardi Gras, youth Will be yours for a day, one day of make believe and one day of abandonment to care-free mirth. The parades, which are the splendor of Carnival, are created in no less than a year's time 3 and the cost of one parade of twenty floats is estimated near 350,000 The attempts to analyze New Orleans in play have proven futile. While other cities may have their carnivals, New Orleans alone can do it in the New Orleans way and on such a perfect and gigantic scale. Mardi Gras is a development and vital growth of the city, which the people will never tire of celebrating. Dear reader, do not dismiss this tale while it is vet fresh in your mind. Leave open your im- agination, and, if possible, fall quietly asleep where you may continue to dwell in a ufairyland returned to earth. . f' qi ,J My Choice QOryne Edwardsj W As we near graduation the most puzzling ques- tion confronting seniors is: What shall I do? Where do I go from here? For me, there is no question as to what I want to do. I know quite definitely, what I will be: a semi-farmer, at least. It seems to me that the life of a farmer is the most desirable, enjoyable, healthful, and by far, the most independent life that could be chosen. This is not a theory, only, for ten years I lived on a farm of 320 acres right in the very heart of the woods and hills. Imagine yourself twenty miles from the nearest railroad, in a little country village, with one store, a mill, a blacksmith shop and a church. To give you an idea of the extreme wilderness: The coyotes may still be heard yelp- ing at night, wolves are still quite plentiful, as well as other forest folk. But it is this wild, un- tamed beauty that has so endeared country life to me. It is nature unmarred by the works of man, and the works of nature are the thoughts of God. The woods and hills are, to me, a con- stant source of inspiration and beauty. By farm life I do.not mean just having worlds of money, ol' QVGH JuSt 61'1Ough to enable one to 96 have a farm to go to at odd times of the year and enjoy someone else's work. But, I mean one where you put your heart and soul and body into the work and actually make it a product of your own hands, molded according to your ambitions. Did you ever stop to realize the part that nature might play in the molding of your life and its de- velopment ? Haveuyou ever really seen a sunrise? It is a wonderful experience. To see the first red of dawn flush the sky, to see the sun come up over the hills and tree tops and transform the landscape. To see the sun rise higher and higher until the world is flooded with fresh, deW6Y beauty. So, every morn is the world made new. And is there anything more impressive than 21 sunset in the woods ? Imagine yourself for a few minutes in a hilly, wooded country. We have g0ne after the cows on horseback, it is in the late summer or early fall when everything has begun to look Smoky, 9SPecially in the woods. It is J'-1S'C Cl11Sk5 oVeYYt1'1iT1g is still-not a sound GX' Celfft the voice of nature. We are on a hill top find looking' off into the distance, along the 1101 12011, we can see a misty blue line over the som- l l z s s i E w l l l 5 i s i 1 1 E s l F L i 5 ,J her darkness of the tree-tops with the fiery red of the setting sun above it-one of the most beau- tiful and impressive sights I have ever seen. And is there anything that has such an air of mvstery and magic, as watching the moon rise mier the hills? As I sit on the porch and watch jr slowly climb over the east barn and cast its shadowy beauty on the earth below, it makes me fm-get the petty troubles of the day and think all is as beautiful as this magic beauty. Have you ever spent a night in the woods? There is always a certain mystery about the woods even in daylight, but as night comes on and the crickets sing, the frogs croak-later in the night hooting of the owls and perhaps the yelp of the coyote-isn't that enough to make one thrill with the greatness of it all? I think so. And autumn in the country! The trees are a gorgeous array of colors. The mornings are crisp and bright, thrilling you with the joy of living. Then, Oh! how I love Indian Summer. Many an evening, as I walked home from school, which was several miles right through the woods, there was a kind of smoky smell and a hazy look. This makes the Woods with their flaming clothes more beautiful. The mornings gradually grow crisper and sharper, the nights chillier. Everyone is busy- shucking corn, hauling it to the barns, hauling the wheat to market, fixing fences and barns, put- Une awal' P0iS21t0es, apples and pumpkins, and mx' how the kids do pick up walnuts and put thciii away. Everything is humming. , Then lo! one of these mornings we wake up and something seems to be the matter-the cock's crowing seems muffled, the pigs are squealing for an unusually early breakfast, and what can be the cause of it all? Why, the visitor has come in the night, spotless, white and shining. What fun is the first snow, how pretty the old cedar trees near the corner of the house are. There is no prettier sight than the woods in winter. Talk about great paintings. The greatest paint- ings are great, only because they truly reflect nature. I could go on and on describing scene after scene and thought after thought, for you know nature, as well as mankind, has many moods-but I will not tire you. And so we come to a close. But stop for a moment. Are you-am I doing the thing that we know, deep down in our hearts, is what we want to do as our part in life? Every- one has a secret desire to do something. Every- one is cut out for a special line of work. Think it over. If you don't know, find out at once. You know there was once an old philosopher who said: The man who doesn't know himself is a poor judge of the other fellow. But for me, shall I yield to the call of the wild or give into the traditional occupation? I wonder. . f' Q.: . f' The School House and the Flag fBy Frank Treat Southwickj Ye who love the Republic, remember the claim Ye owe to her fortunes, ye owe to her name, To her years of prosperity past and in store- A thousanrd behind YOU, 21 thousand before' The blue arch above us is Liberty's twine, ' The green fields beneath us is Equathty S home' But the schoolroom today is H11m2lI11'CY'S fflend' Let the people the flag and the schoolroom defend!

Front row: Neva Martin, Christina Threlfall, Walter Cochran, Leon Berry, Edrie Miller. The three boys in the picture above comprised the corn judging team representing C. I-I. S., which won the John C. Guinn cup at the Jasper County Corn Show in December. The girls in the picture who took part in the contest, as in- dividuals, comprise a team of alternates. Five of these six students made the five high- est grades in the individual corn scoring by high school students, throughout the country. Any three of them could have won over any of the teams entered from any other school. Justin Brown, in the picture above, is the in- structor in Agriculture in the Carthage High School. Two of the boys' team, Cochran and Carter, went to Columbia to attend the state corn show. The three- corn exhibits in the picture above are the entries of the boys in the County show here and at Columbia. Farmers Week at Columbia ' CWINSTON CARTERD Having been fortunate enough to win the trip to Columbia for a big- time during- Farmers Week , in company with four other boys from Jasper County, I started for Columbia on the morning of January 19. We took the 8:24 train f1'0m C211'Ul138Ie and ,arrived at Nevada about noon, here we changed trains and went on to McBain. This town is about nine miles fygm Columbia. Taking a train from there., We ar, rived at Columbia about two thirty gfgleigk, We 98 got off the train at the depot and started for the Bureau of Information to find a place t0 Stay- We were Stopped by a man before we reached the Bureau, who took us to a house where we could get rooms for five. We left OUT traveling bags at the house and Went to the agriculture building Where we registered as dele- gates from Jasper County. After this we WQITU to the room where the corn was on exhibition. BY this time it was supper time, so We Went W I l l i E l i 1 K 5 Q the cafe and ate our supper, after which we went to the University Auditorium for the evening pl-Ograin. First we enjoyed music by the Unl- V01-Sjty Band. The meeting was then called to Order by Mr. Jewell Mayes. Immediately fol- lowing the opening of the meeting, were Words of Welcome by President Stratton D. Brooks. We then enjoyed an address on 'iHusbands and Wives by Mr. Douglas Mallock of Chicago who is internationally known as the Poet who makes Living a J Oy- His address. was very interesting and humorous. This ended M0nday'S program, Tuesday morning, there was choice of several instructive lectures on different subjects, and in the evening, we again assembled at the Univer- sity at 7:15. This time we were honored by music by the University Glee Club. We were then addressed by the State Superintendent of Schools, Charles A. Lee on Rural Education In Missouri. The last number was a lecture on The Health of the Farm Family by Dr. Caro- line Hedger. Wednesday morning, we were again permitted to go to the lecture on the subject that We wanted to learn about. Wednesday afternoon, we went over to the dairy barn and Watched the attendants operate the power milker that was used in milking the cows. There were about fifty-four cows in this one barn. Wednesday eve- ning, at the auditorium, we first listened to a musical program. Then we were addressed by Mr. William Jesse Baird, Director of the De- partment of Agriculture at Berea College, Ken- tucky. His address was Future Rural Leader- ship. This was followed by an address on Sel- ling a State to the Nation and the World bv Charles H. Brough, former governor of Arkansas. Thursday morning we again attended lectures on special subjects. Thursday afternoon we went out to the High ,School and, also, visited the dif- ferent buildings of the University. Thursday C'VGI1i11g' We again enjoyed violin and vocal solos and other music put on by the University of Missouri, and heard an informal address by Sam F. Baker, Governor of Missouri. Friday was the last day of Farmers Week at Columbia. We spent the day in looking over the grain and fruit exhibits. The- week was ended by a farmers banquet at the Rothwell Gymnasium. Here we were entertained by sorgs and short speeches by several men and women. We left Columbia at 3:35 o'clock Saturday afternoon and arrived at Nevada about 5:30 Sun- day morning. As we had to wait until 12:30 for a train going to Carthage, we took advantage of the opportunity to visit the hospital for the insane. We found that there were about two hundred attendants and fourteen hundred pa- tients. The building was very clean and sani- tary. There were special rooms to be used for entertainment of the patients, and in their work the instructors did all they could to make the patients happy. We left Nevada at 12:30 and arrived at Car- thage at 2:15. We had missed a whole Week of school, but we came to the conclusion that we had had a whole week of fun mixed with a lot of valuable information. Thus en-ded our hard- worked-for trip.

Have you heard of a school whose alumni- After years and years have passed- Come back to their dear old high school, With a loyal spirit that lasts? And when the alumni have come back, They are always! loath to go, To be here revives sweet memories, And seems to thrill them so. Such a school is in dear, old Carthage, The fairest city we knowg VVe shall never find one dearer, Wherever we may go. Each student reveres this old high school, And ne'er will forget its dear name, No matter what his lot may be, Poverty, wealth, or fame. As the time when we must say farewell Is nearer and nearer at hand, Our hearts are shadowed with sorrow, That Seniors all understand, And when we have left our high school, A1101 have g0he our several ways, The dearest of all our memories Will be of our high school days, Our Youth Shall Carry Un CTune: Battle Hymn of the Republ.ic j QSung at the contest, at Memorial Hall, Nov. 11, by Kathryn Von Knesebeckj Mine eyes have seen the glory of our great and glorious past, Of the heroes who to us have passed the torch of freedom Ong But now I see the glory of our land that is to be - Our youth shall carry on!

This association was organized in 1923 by the School of Journalism of the University of Missouri, and now has a membership of over 200 school publications in Missouri. This indicates the rapidly growing importance of school publications, like the Car- thaginian, in journalism. There are other indications of the recognition of the value of Annuals in stimulating and sustaining the interest of the student body. Their value as a record and a medium of publicity for the school and community is unquestioned. In the process of growing, expanding, and improving, changes are inevitable and necessary. In this, the thirteenth volume of the Carthaginian, many changes from the old order will be seen: different arrangement, new sections, and different motifs binding the book together-all introduced with the idea of progressing. Some of these changes will be approved, some of them will not be approved, but it is probable that the variations made in the 1925 Carthaginian, are but the first of many and varied changes and improvements which will be added to future Year Books of C. H. S. In this process of development, however, the purpose of this volume has not changed. It is the purpose of the 1925 Carthaginian, as it has been the purpose of previous An- nuals of C. H. S., to perpetuate, in vivid manner, one year of life in the Carthage High School. We have tried to represent each and every phase and activity in the school. In addition, we have tried to show no partiality to any class, society or activity and have tried to weave into the pages of this book the feeling of the wonderful spirit which holds sway over C. H. S. So, as you scan this book, look for this inner meaning which it is intended to con- vey., To catch this meaning, it is necessary to look at every picture, read every Piece Of literature, laugh at the jokes, and notice the advertisements. They all have their part. in getting over to you the full significance of THIS YEAR of SCHOOL LIFE in Carthage High School. VICTOR WALLACE.

Debating Notes A The local interest in debating this past year has made 1924-25 one to be valued by theschool. This year, more than all others, debating has been recognized as one of the school's paramount activities. The efficient coaching of Miss Elizabeth Peiffer, history teacher, the coach! of both the first and second teams, was a decided factor 111 this success. I Out of the twenty-two contestants, eight were chosen for the final preliminary which was held in November. The subject was: Resolved: That the Philippines Be Granted Immediate Independence. John Schlecht, a member of the Clay Club and a member of the team last year, and Cecil Colley, a member of the Webster Club, were chosen to represent the school by judges selected from the Faculty. Raymond Tomlinson, of the Webster Club and Armor Hill, of the Clay Club, were chosen as alternates. The first debate was held in our auditorium the afternoon of December 31, with Joplin. The decision of the judges was two to one in f-avor of Carthage. Our team upheld the negative side of the question. On January 23, two young ladies from Neosho were defeated by a two-to-one decision of the judges. This time Carthage had the affirmative side of the question. However, February 15, Carthage went to Mt. Vernon and was defeated by a two-to-one vote of the judges. We upheld the affirma- tive, and the decision was very close 5 our team did credit to themselves and to the school. ' This year, for the first time, our alternates met the alternates from other schools. The first debate was held with Frontenac, Kansas. Kansas uses three on a team, making it necessary to add a speaker to our regular team. Edwin Hough, of the Forum Debating Club, was chosen for this position. We upheld the negative side of the question: Resolved: That the United States Should Cancel All Financial Obliga- gions. Due from the Governments of the Allies on Account of the World War. The 9C1S10H, 2 though VGFY C10Se, was awarded to the Frontenac team, but Edwin Hough was given the highest- individual score by the judges. On March 13 the second team went to J l' . op ln and met two boys from the Gavel and Quill Club. The Kansas question was used, our team upholding the negative. Our team was defeated by a two-to-one decision of the judges. A1th0l-lgla we were ,defeated in both debates, they were very closely contested and much credit is due the Carthage speakers.

Sophomores and Seniors Football With 'Elle Past record of winning football teams, the season of 1924 was the most successful in the hlstory of C. H. S. Coach Byers turned out a football team that won the championship of the southwest league. This has never been done but once before in the history of C. H. S., and the students of this school should be and are proud of this team and the record which they made. The schedule was the toughest ever attempted by C. H. S. and the record of seven victories, two ties, and one defeat is one to be proud of. The one defeat, however, was a bitter pill to swallc av and one unlooked for and unnecessary. The squad was made up of both veteran and green material, and the fact that some of its greatest players came from comparatively green material speaks volumes of praise for the coach. It was a crowning success for the system employed by Coach Byers-a system relying not on any great number of plays but the simplicity and completely different kind of plays enabled our men to execute them well and rapidly and as a result completely baffled our opponents. This system did not depend on a particular play or player but it relied on the team as a whole and not on any individual star. No High school, which the blue and white played against, possessed a simple, yet deceiving, set of plays or system equal to theirs. The team got off with a bad start, but it was typical of them, after the first game of the season, to. pile up good scores against teams which it had formerly had much trouble in even beating. Men who know, gave our coach the credit for having the best all around team in the league, even before we copped the championship. The team verified this opinion by easily winning the championship. On our way to the championship, thanks to the high spirited and loyal boys who composed the team, many- of our age old rivals, namely, Joplin and Webb City, were literally swamped under a deluge of touchdowns and drop kicks. ' On the mythical all-star eleven which is picked by all the coaches in the southwest, two vvere picked frgm our championship eleven, Otis McGa-ughey and Basil lilrby, Captain and Captain Elect, respectively. The playing of both these' men .was brilliant and at all times dependable. Otie will never be forgotten and the playing of Kirby in 1925 is looked forward to with high expectation. On the second all-star eleveni were placed three men of no less ability, Chris Hedge, Paul Richardson, and Harry lVI.cBain, who were highly deserving of this honor. t d 1924 'll be a ear long remembered by those who played and by those who T00 e ' W1 y , The record will be one for future teams to look UP to and for C- H- 5- Past, Pfesentf f 13 b ud of. and future, to remember, and orever o e pIr0T.

I L ? 3 1 w I Review of Girls' Basketball Season The 1925 Basketball Team had an in-and-out season, Winning' five and losmg Six games. Regardless of the fact that the team finished with a percentage of 500, the season was a great success when compared with that of other years, winnlng from our old rivals, Joplin and Neosho, and holding Webb City, the Champions of the South- West, to a low score. If we were to pick any one game to be called a thriller it would be the game With Greenfield at Greenfield, fighting them every inch of the Way. Coming from, behind to lead them nearly all of the time only to lose by a two-point margin. That game may be easily called the best played by C. H. S. this season. It is very doubtful if another C. H. S. team will play through a season as unique as the one here recorded. Of the eleven games played, seven were either Won or lost by less than four point margin, and only once Was the score doubled on us and that by the Champions of the Southwest. The record of the games Won and lost clearly tells the story of our team, of their hard fighting and clean sportsmanship, of a team without stars, and of a team composed of girls Whose only thought was to give their best for C.VH. S. Graduation will take from us three of our letter basketball players, all of Whom have played a very important part in C. H. S. athletics. Captain Viola lVlcReynolds, side center and forward, Catherine Davis, guard, and Kathryn von Knesebeck, center and the second choice for the all-conference center will be missing at the start of next season. While graduation takes from us three of our letter players, the pros- pects for next year are more than bright for with the return of Captain-Elect Earl, McBain, Harris, McVey, Craig and Craigo, C. H. S. is again assured of a team that will uphold the honor of the blue and White. Date School Where Car.-Op.

This was not so poor, as the team was practically a new one. Captain Mc- l il 1 Gaughey was our only regular letter man, along with Kirby and TTSIYHOIS Substltute V1 P. ig,..v il if letter men from last year. 1 We do not feel that we were ever out-classed, and that will be proved by the record of the games lost. Of the nine games lost, two were lost by one point, two by three .ll it points, and, in only one of these nine games, was the score doubled on us. By turning fl, ' V' to the schedule of the season you may see just which teams defeated us and by just .V ll' what score, also those defeated by us. all A Of these twenty games, ten were played without our Captain and Guard, who was V' fb forced out of the lineup due to injuries. The loss of this great player in midseason caused a team which had just found its stride, both offensively and defensively, to be 3 Egg rebuilt. That this team, which was reorganized in one practice, fought hard and p iii played well, is shown by the fact that they won from Joplin at Joplin, and held Spring- T if 'field to a one-point margin, and won five and lost five games. T C H. S. will lose by graduation five of her greatest athletes, not of this year only, but of all time, not of this sport alone, but of all sports. Graduation will claim Captain McGaughey, of football and track fame, a fine sportsman a great captain, and a stellar athlete. Brooks, track captain, for 1925 and the greatest middle distance runner ever developed by Carthage High, and one of the best centers in the confer- ence, he, two, has played his la.st for C. H. S. Graduation will also claim our two Harry's, who will always be remembered, not only for their basketball ability, but 1 ,xl who will always be remembered in connection with the Championship football team Qi ,ig -Q' il ef of 1924. The Drury tournament closed the basketball career of Rubber Traynor, our i li'.'1l diminutive all-conference forward, who will 4, always be remembered along with the Q we .N l 1l'l All l 1-1 l'll: - best basketball forwards of the Blue and White. But despite the loss of these five stellar athletes the prospects for a winning team next year are more than bright. In ily 1 ill Capt-a1f1'E19Ct Klfby, Wallace, Dumphey, and Hart, letter men from this year, we have splendid material. about which to build, and with these letter-men and half a dozen H men of no less ability, C. H. S. should again rank among the leaders of the conference.

There were fifteen schools present, bringing with them some of the best men 1n the state to participate. All these amounted to some two hundred athletes. The weather con- ditions were as near perfect as could be expected, and the track and field were in good shape. As a result many records were smashed in the course of a day. - Springfield won the meet with Nevada 'a close second. Mount Vernon, Monett, Joplin and Carthage also figured in .the scoring- Austm, Of Mcllllt VSFUOU, W2S high point man, amassing a total of 37 points. Ideal weather, good competition and snappy handling of the meet all contributed towards making it a complete success. ' The following Fiiday the Carthaginians went to Spr1ng11e-d to compete 1n the Southwest Missouri track and field meet held there annually. Because they were off form and because competition was so stiff, the Carthaginians managed to collect only six points. These were captured by McGaughey, Richardson and Kelso. On High school day, Coach Byers took his best men to the State meet at-Clolum- bia. Captain Putnam had been nursing his injury hoping to be able to enter thls meet. Fortunately he was all primed and re-ady and flashed to the tape ahead of all the rest, winning the high hurdles. This is the first time in the history of Cp. H. S. that she has placed first in the state meet. McGaughey tied for second place in the pole vault. These athletes and their achievements will be long praised and remembered by the loyal students of C. H. S. 1925 ' With such crack performers back as Captain Brooks, McGaughey, McMurtry, Bridges, and an abundance of new and promising material, it was foreseen that C. IH. S. would be well represented in the track and field events. On April 11, 1925, the C. H. S. athletes went to Mount Vernon to compete in their Relay Carnival. Mount Vernon easily captured their own meet by a large score. C. H. S. won only ten points and Captain Brooks won first place in the high jump, clearing the bar at 5 feet, 'YVZ inches. This broke the record for the high jump at Mount Vernon. On April 17, 1925, C. H. S. held their sixth annual invitation track meet. There were 18 schools present to enter into competition. These amounted to some 225 ath- letes. The weather conditions were perfect and with some of the foremost schools present from both Kansas and Missouri, many records were expected to fall.

Carthage, Missouri Pioneers oi the Uuarrying Indnustry at Carthage CONTINUOUS SERVICES In 1884 a group of men with faith and vision risked their money and put in their time and energy to start the development of the Marble industry of Carthage. The chances they took and the trials they had are not generally appreciated nor realized. Some years things Went Welleand dividends were paid and other years assess- ments Were made and paid by these menwho had faith in a good product, the vision to see ahead, and the courage to risk their money in developing it. The aim they always had in mind was to furnish good stock and prompt service, at a reasonable price, and this is still their aim. Forty-one years of continuous operation, Without change of name, is a record We are justly proud of, and this record and these purposes are being maintained by The Com- pany at the present time. I If the product We produce did not have merit, and if services rendered were not satisfactory, all of the money, time and energy put into the development of our quarry- 1ng, sawing and finishing facilities, for both exterior and interior Work, would have been futile. Our present facilities for production and finishing are better than ever in the history of the Company. ag CART!-IAGE fb as , It me MARBLE 81 WHITE LIME CU. CQ. A , ff, me Gao. s.
