|Mi!iii;ii,iiiiiiiii.ir.iiiii'ii iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii,,j Jflnrruuirii This is the fourth volume of the Scarab. The Hi| h School activities, its chronicles, the institution's achievements to which it gives record, the notes of some of the prominent alumni, and the many pictures it contains—all bear witness that this, the season of 1919-1920, has been the most significant in the history of Benton High School. That Benton High maintains her position as among the foremost American high schools needs no heralding within the pages of this book. Consequently we have not attempted to sing praises; but have rather endeavored to review for you the events and happenings of the school year just going out. We have attempted to maintain the traditional loyalty and fairness for which this publication has always stood. We beg of you, when you have scanned its pages, not to put this book aside for all time. The Scarab functions best with age and years, hence you had better take it down from its shelf that you may live this one big year of high school over again. That is what the Scarab is for—let it inspire your pipe dreams and serve to renew your high associations and friendships. In our endeavor to make this book the bearer of good cheer and the true exponent of Benton spirit we may have fallen short. If it docs not come up to your expectations, we pray you to be considerate. We have done our best. With this last word we place before you the 1920 Scarab for your kind approval. ! wiiiiniiiiiiinniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiMM
