Benton Township High School - Scarab Yearbook (Benton, IL)

Page 6 text:

THE SCARAB Foreword The purpose of ilus Scarab is to give the reader an idea of the school’s activities, and especially to remain a constant reminder of the most pleasant occurrences of the year 1924-1925 to those who have had a part therein. Eight volumes have heretofore been published. The members of each stair have tried to outdo their predecessors. In compiling the 1925 Scarab, we have spared no effort to improve those departments which have always been a part of our book. The additions have carefully been chosen that they might not reflect upon the quality of past publications. In spite of the fact that others may consider this a mere annual, its preparation has been more than interesting to those who have labored to place it before the public for inspection and approval. Between its covers we have tried to give expression to the true high school spirit which, it is hoped, will ever keep the walls of Benton High sacred to each and every one of us. The accomplishments of the school, as recorded herein, bear witness that the year 1924-1925 has been the most significant in the history of the Benton Township High School. We have not, however, attempted to unjustly praise Benton High, for her position among the foremost high schools of America needs no heralding by us. We have merely attempted to give, an interesting review of the chief events which have taken place during the year. With this last word, we place the 1925 Scarab before you for fair consideration. 2
