We will then realize to some degree, the part which you played in moulding our characters and starting us on our life’s journey. Twenty O. V. Walters Superintendent B. S. and M. A.

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In September 1921, ninety-four Freshmen started their High Schoo! career at C. T. H. S. The Class of ’25 was not unlike any other classes in the way of being timid but in a month or two after the newness wore off we were organized, having as our President, Kenneth Fox; yice-President, Marie Hasley, and Secretary and Treasurer, Maurine Johnson. Our advisors wei’e Miss Price, Miss Brown and Mr. McCoy. We also chose our Class Colors (Blue and Gold) and Class Flower (Chrysanthemum). Our first event of the year, after we had been entertained at a reception given by the rest of the School, was a Wiener Roast and then a little later we felt honored in having the responsibility of the Freshman-Junior Party. The next fall we came back somewhat reduced in numbers but never-the-less ready to assume the title of Upper Classmen. The first step for the class of ’25 in 1922 was to elect officers. We chose a new President, Ellis Chrysler, and Vice-President, Marion Jones, but re-elected our same Secretary and Treasurer, Maurine Johnson, whom we have been pleased to retain throughout our four years. Our record as Sophs was second to none. We were represented in Athletics by Fancher and Leamons. In social activities we made ourselves known in country and town. First we had a Wiener roast and in the second semester gave a Stunt Show which you will recognize as the F. F. F. With Ellis Chrysler as President, Margaret Pierson, Vice-President, Maurine Johnson as Secretary and Treasurer and Della Carper as news paper reporter, the Junior Class of 1924 started their third successful year. The class as a whole did well in the inter-class track meet. But the greatest sensation of the year for everyone concerned was the Junior-Senior Banquet given May 8th which gave our class an enviable reputation in school. At the end of our third year we firmly resolved to take over the responsibilities of Seniors and as such to establish ourselves in history. Joy was intermingled with sorrow when upon our return for work in the Fall of 1924 we realized that we were to spend our last year at C. T. H. S. Determined that our last year should not rank below the three past years we elected to the Presidency, Edwin (Slim) Leamon, and to the Vice-Presidency, Doris Brasel, our other two officers remaining the same as the preceding year. In School Activities we established a precedent by issuing the “Flame” and if we have succeeded in helping the school in anyway we know that the Class of ’25 has not lived in vain.

Come with me, ail you who would know the past! With a single touch of his wand our host will sweep back the enshrouding curtain of Time and we shall see ourselves as we were in the earlier days of our high-school career. Look! A group of noisy freshmen, one hundred and forty to be exact, are talking excitedly in the assembly. Miss Brown, Miss Payne and Mr. Gordon are the class advisors. Evidently an election is taking place. Ah! on the blackboard appear these names: Thelma Myers, President; Charles Myers, Vice-President and Rhondal McGinness, Secretary and Treasurer. Now we see a gay group roasting weiners around a blazing fire. Then —the Freshmen-Junior Party in full swing. The curtain falls. Our first year has passed only too quickly. The same group appears again before our eyes, slightly decreased in numbers but apparently even livlier than before. With Miss Call, Miss Payne and Mr. Gordon as its advisors the class-selects Norval Green for President; Henry Smith, Vice-President and Frieda Fox, Secretary and Treasurer. They accomplish many things during the year. Oh, see! The dignified Sophomores scarcely recognizable in the attire of their younger brothers and sisters, are gathered eagerly about a Christmas tree, awaiting the arrival of Santa Claus. Next through a mist of confetti we see the High School corridor and a large throng of people who are evidently there for a good time. It is the Sophomore Carnival. For the third time the curtain rises. Once more the class of ’26 is seen—Junior now. Their President is Ned Burr; Vice-President, Frieda Fox, and Secretary and Treasurer, Kermit Dehl. Under the guidance of Miss Call, Miss Davis and Mr. Gordon they are planning to accomplish great things. The scene changes. A group of stalwart athletes—those who have been the most active in the sports of Casey High School during the last few years—appear before us. Here it is easily seen that our class is well represented. We recognize among others of our class-members, Harry Foster, Ethard Lee, Rhondal McGinness, Charlie Myers, Max Crane, Earl Hensick, and Hermin Huffman. The Junior Class is proud to have produced such notable characters. Much skill and musical ability is displayed among the present Juniors. The class is well represented in Orchestra, Band, and Glee Club. They have always assisted loyally in programs given by the C. T. H. S. The Magician drops his wand; the magic charm is broken. Yet if we should again desire to see the Past we have only to knock at the gates of Memory and our yesterdays shall live again for us.

We hadn’t the faintest idea of what to do, but by keeping our eyes open and our mouths shut, we soon learned the routine of High School life. Iris Emrich was chosen as president to lead us through the first year. Homer Orrell was elected Vice-President, Earnest McCambridge, Secretary, and Leona Shrider, treasurer. Our class advisors were Miss Booker, Miss Poage, and Mr. Tade. The Freshmen Reception was given October 3. Almost the entire school was present to see us initiated. After that we were allowed to do nothing but study until March 4th, when we entertained the Juniors. Our first year in High School ended very uneventfully as the upperclassmen thought us too young to have outings of any kind, as they did. We again assembled in the old study hall in September, 1924. This time Homer Orrell was elected President; Margaret Lucas, Vice-President and Earnest McCambridge, Secretary-Treasurer. Miss Booker, Miss Poage, and Mr. Beck were chosen Class Advisors. The Sophomores have one thing to be especially proud of, that is the fact that we have produced more valuable men in athletics than any other class. Raymond Partlow has been elected as Captain of the football squad for 1925, and Reese Hilt.v was the star guard on the basketball team. We hope to have as much success in turning out athletic stars in the two remaining years before graduation as we have had so far.

This Glee Club was composed of about thirty girls. During the school year of 1922-23 they gave various school programs, a Christmas pageant, a May Fete, and made the following entries in the music contest at Charleston, Illinois: CHORUS Merry June ....................... Vincent. Girls’ Glee Club Where My Caravan Has Rested..........Lochr. SOLO They did not place. In 1923-24 the Girls’ Glee Club was re-organized by Miss Holmes with a membership of fifty-seven girls. The chief features of this year was the Musical Program of Dec. 11, 1923 and “The Gypsy Rover” by both Boys’ and Girls’ Glee Clubs with Orchestra accompaniment. They again entered the Charleston Music Contest with the following entries. CHORUS “Around the Gypsy Fire” ................ Brahms. Girls’ Glee Club “I Hear a Thrush at Eve” .............. Cadrnan. Girls’ Quartette Frieda Dyer, Maxine Sturdevant, Ruth Emrich, Ruth Eyestone. SOLO “Sing, Smile, Slumber” ................. Gounod. Helen Lee The Girls’ Quartette won second place. Seventy-two enrolled in the present Girls’ Glee Club (1924-25) but only thirty-six qualified. So far they have given various school programs in the forms of choruses, quartettes, duets, etc. This spring they intend to make several entries in the Charleston Music Contest, and judging from the progress made in the last two years due to Miss Holme’s tireless training they expect to do even better than last year.

Pauline Dickey Fifty-nine Co H - • 5: FRENCH CLUB LA CERCLE FRANCAIS La Cercle Francais was organized in September 1924 under the direction of the efficient instructor Miss Mabel Robertson. This club was organized for the promotion of interest in the French language and also for social purposes. The officers are as follows: Halbert Highfill, President; Theodore Cutright, Vice-President; and Margaret Pierson, Secretary and Treasurer. Meetings are held every two weeks at the homes of different members of the Club. The business is transacted in parliamentary order, and the conversation in conducted mainly in French. After the business at hand is transacted, French games are played. We sometimes go to the extremes by working cross word puzzles in French, after which refreshments are served and a social hour spent. The French Club is the only organization of its kind in the Casey High School and should be of much benefit to the members from a social and intellectual standpoint. We hope that the Club will become a permanent organization and more of its nature will be added, for much of the life of the school depends upon its societies.

This phase of work comes under the Public Speaking Department which was just added to the course this year. The purpose of this is to create a school spirit along this line of work as well as to create school spirit in football and basketball. This year’s team hopes that the spirit will be continued and that the students of the Casey High School will become interested. Sirty- ix THE AGRICULTURE CLUB The Agriculture Club of the Casey Township High School came into existence in the year 1920 under the auspices of the efficient instructor, W. A. Newlin, to promote interest in agriculture, and to bring a closer relationship among the boys, as well as to provide social activities. Meetings are held periodically at which all business is transacted in a parliamentary manner. For the last two years joint meetings have been held with the Agriculture Clubs of Martinsville and Marshall. Previously the Club has been handicapped by want of funds, as their only means of obtaining finances was by dues of one dollar a year per member and by cleaning and scarifying seed, but this year the deficiency of funds has been overcome by the use of the sweet clover harvester with which something like a thousand dollars has been made. The School Board has been very benevolent towards this department as it has built a modern seed house, which the Agriculture Club helped to equip with an expensive scarifyer and fan-mill. In the past the Board has appropriated $200.00 for a working fund to carry on the seed exchange, which exchange has been very beneficial to the farmers of this community. The Agriculture Club has been the instigator of several other clubs, namely, the Chinch Bug Corn Club, the Soy Bean Club, and the Soil Improvement Club. Each of these organizations has been a shining success in its own field, but since Chinch Bug Corn and Soy Beans are now pretty well established these two clubs have been dispensed with. About twice a year “Soy Bean” and “Sweet Clover” days are held in the gymnasium of the High School to which the farmers of the neighborhood are invited and are entertained by home speakers and some talent from the University. But the big occasion of the year is the Father and Son Banquet at which all Club members and their fathers are supposed to be in attendance. In the spring the green-house is used to grow plants for the Club boys. For several years plants were sold to customers but since the Club has increased in membership only the members can be accommodated. This makes it possible for very early plants to be available to all the boys at a nominal price; and also gives them experience in scientific gardening. About four acres of school property have been devoted to soil experimenting by the boys. The Agriculture Department has a large library of its own which contains about 200 volumes and 2000 bulletins, and in addition subscriptions are held for all reliable and prominent farm papers, through which the boys can become acquainted with all the important agriculture topics in discussion. The club is always ready to help the farmers in any way it can. Each year a large amount of dirt is stored for distribution among the farmers for inoculating all legumes. Farmers are also shown how to test soil for acidity by the new method, and how to prevent diseases of corn, such as root rot, and are warned against the corn borer. This organization has been a great benefit to the farmers in promoting progressive agriculture and has helped to bring a closer relationship between this community and the school.

Teams of ’22, ’23, Captain ’24. Second all Wabash Valley quarterback. Ray was a hard worker and is to be commended for his ability and knowledge of the game. Orran Reach “Corker Senior. Teams of ’23, ’24, Right End. “Corker” never kicks about a hard game, but slashes right in and fights like a whirlwind for Casey. Edwin Leamon “Slim Senior. Teams ’22, ’23, ’24, Center. Edwin i-eceived Honorable Mention in the all Wabash Valley pick, but we believe him to be the best center and lineman in the country. Everett Owen “Bill Senior. Team of ’24, Left Guard. Everett was a big man in the line, and not only in weight either. He was commonly called “Big Bertha”. Sevenly-1 n o Lb Roy Foster “Pooge Sophomore. Team of ’24, Left Half. “Pooge” is a man with lots of possibilities and a knack of tackling that is near to sensational. Charlie McDaniel “Mac Sophomore. Teams of ’23, ’24, Right Guard. “Mac” was a steady player and could always be seen in the thick of the fray, always doing his best. Harry Foster “Tater” Junior. Teams ’22, ’23, ’24, Right Half. Harry could display bursts of speed and tackling stunts that would amaze his opponents. He never had much to say, but was always standing ’round waiting for a good hard job. Charlie Myers “Chuck Junior. Team of ’24. Charlie, although a little man, was full of pep, and could at all times be counted upon to do his part, and then some. Seventy-three Raymond Partlow Jack Sophomore. Teams of ’23, ’24, Left Tackle. Captain-elect for ’25. “Jack” is a just and dependable lineman and will make a good leader for the coming year. Here’s luck to him. Rhondal McGinness “Guinea” Junior. Team of ’24, Quarter and Halfback. “Guinea” was a hard man to play against. He never shirked but flung himself into every play, regardless of how big his opponents were. Harold Beason Pete Freshman. Team of ’24, Right Tackle. “Pete” is one of the few Freshmen who made the “Varsity” but he was a mountain of strength and a cool-headed player who always did his part. Chauncey Parker Hnf” Sophomore. Team of ’24, Left Guard. He is a good lineman and will show even better ability next year. Seventy-four Robert Elliot “Bob” Sophomore. Team of ’24, Left End. “Bob” has an eye for the ball and is a real forward passer, but the end position is more to his liking. Earl Hensick “Duke” Junior. Team of ’24, Right Half. “Duke” was unexcelled when it came to blocking, and although small, was a good line plunger. We’ll sure appreciate him next fall. Clae Montgomery “Clay” Junior. Team of ’24. Guard. Although this was Clae’s first year he played well, for he is a little man with lots of nerve. Preston Jenuine Junior. ‘24. Manager. In this slight lad the bovs possessed a real manager, for he was aiwavs on the job when it came to supplying the needed clothing or caring for wounds. Seventy-five c : ft i £ r. FOOTBALL SQUAD 1924 FOOTBALL BANQUET This school gives, every year, a Banquet in honor of its football heroes, and the one this year was considered to be the best ever held at C. T. H. S. The principal speaker for the evening was Coach “Bob” Zuppke of the University of Illinois, and we felt very much honored in being able to procure such a man, whose fame as a football coach has spread all over the continent. He gave a very fine address on Athletics as a whole, and how to cope with the various individuals who might appear on the Gridiron, and his talk was listened to, and appreciated by every one present. A few others spoke and helped make the evening a success. The Banquet was not held solely for entertainment but for the inspiration it might offer to the boys who will carry the standards of our school into battle next year. We feel sure that the mark aimed at was not lost, because we had very fine talks from several football fans from Illinois and Indiana. The evening ended by every one wishing success to Captain Partlow in the coming year, and every one adjourned feeling that he had received much in return for the time spent in attending this annual event.

Chas. Myres Forward 24-25 “Chuck”, although rather small, was a mighty man with a basketball. Foster, Harry Forward 23; 23-24 “Tater” was one of the fastest men that played in the valley this year. When he and Fancher “got going” they made a formidable combination. McGinness, Rhondol Guard 24-25 “Guinnea” is wonderful for working the ball away from the opponents, and he is also a good center-floor shot. Eighty Leamon, Edwin Center 24-25 “Eddie” was the tallest man Casey ever put on the floor, and he was always there with the goods. Casey fans regret losing him this year. Ballinger, Clarence Forward 24-25 Clarence is a neat little worker and will make one of our “best” for the coming season. Hensick, Earl Forward 24-25 Earl is one of the men whom we depend upon next year. He is a little man but possesses a great amount of fight. Hilty, Reese Guard 24-25 Reese was a new man in the game, but his quick judging of opponents’ plays made him a valuable back guard. Eighty-one Eighty-two Eighty-three GIRLS’ ATHLETICS Girls’ Physical Education of C. T. H. S. was first started in 1924 under the direction of the efficient instructor, Miss Phyllis Johnston. There are 150 enrolled in this department. The first thing taken up was simple exercises, such as dumb-bell exercises and wand exercises, then came the games with a volleyball, something similar to basketball, to help prepare for basketball. Now the exciting basketball season. Teams were organized in the various Physical Education classes. Also a Senior Class team and a Junior-Class team. Only one public game was played between the Senior and Junior teams, the Seniors winning by a score of 6 to 2. Members of the Senior Team are as follows. First Team: Forwards: Margaret Pierson, Captain Dorothy McGinnes Guards: Pauline Dickey Leora Davis Centers: Ruth Emrich Della Carper Second Team: Forwards: Helen Spence Doris Brasel Guards: Faye Roberts Feme Meeker Centers: Helen Squires Kate Foster The Junior lineup of the team was as follows: First Team: Forwards: Hilda Dehl Helen Collins Guards: Dorothy Meeker Lena Heims, Captain Centers: Marie Hiers Bernadine Hills Second Team: Forwards: Gladys Squires Maxine Sturdevant Guards: Marion Johnson Dorothy Scott Centers: Esther Sidwell Nina Kelly The Basketball season is now over and we are taking up Folk Dancing. Later, out-door sports, such as Tennis and Baseball will be taken up. Physical Education has certainly made an improvement in the health of the girls of the C. T. H. S. and every girl should be required to take it. Eighty-four OUR JANITORS MR. HOYT MR. WATTS MR. DAVIS Night Janitor Engineer Janitor Our High School is a unit made up of many different parts: as— faculty, classes, library and librarian, athletics, and clubs. If we are to enjoy these to the fullest extent, it is essential that the building be properly cared for, lighted and heated. Therefore we wish to take this opportunity to thank Messrs. Davis, Hoyt, and Watts for their faithful service and for making it so pleasant for us here in C. T. H. S. Eighty-five SCHOOL HISTORY In 1892 a High School was started in Casey and though rather unorganized, a class of three were graduated from it in 1895, holding the first graduation and commencement exercises in Casey. The first organized High School in Casey was started in 1895, and from this has grown a School which rapidly increased in attendance and has become a very important factor in the welfare of Casey and the surrounding community. The first superintendent, who acted as superintendent, principal and faculty for a small salary, was John Scurgham. The members of the first School Board were: Joel Weaver, President; S. S. Underwood, Secretary: Wash Sanford, A. C. Garrison, Thomas Saunders and Joseph Ingle. A few years ago the Casey Township High School was established for this township which is made up of eleven districts, nine of which are in Clark county and two in Cumberland county.

One hundred eight “YEA VERILY” (The High School Boys 23rd Psalm) The young damsel is my shepherdess. I shall not want for ways to spend my spare time “and then some.” She leadeth me beside the confectionery for the sake of dad’s nickels. She maketh me to sit down in the movies when I ought to be at my lessons. Yea, though I walk in the High School as a failure and dwell in the valley of the “Flunker” forever even here shall she be with me and her babble shall follow me. For although her ruddy cheeks be in ’’compact” and her head be as hollow as a gourd, even somehow she still beguileth me that 1 can not study. Surely if this foolishness follow me all the days of my life, I shall fail to graduate forever. Yea, Verily, a fair damsel is good thing and a noble maiden “far above rubies” but to be just ordinary girl crazy and lose thy education is a heinous crime. For the girls thou hast with thee always but to get learning thou hast not always and it may slip from thy fingers, forever. Amen. .jc Senior—“Pardon me for walking on your feet.” Freshie: “That’s all right, I do it myself.” Senior: “Are they still going together?” Freshie: “Who?” Senior: “Your feet of course.” Mr. Eden: “Your recitation reminds me of the city of Quebec.” Helen Spence: “How’s that?” Mr. Eden: “Built on a bluff.” ♦ ♦ ♦ “All the teachers are bookworms.” “Yes, except Geometry teachers.” “How’s that?

One hundred ten THE MAN-U-AE FOR THE FRESH-MAN A SER-IES of HELP-FUL LES-SONS FOR THE FRESH-MAN (In Words of One Syl-la-ble.) Leg-gon One Learn the fol-low-ing words: Case-y Of-fice build-ing tar-di-ness Wal- ters green-ness 1. Case-y Town-ship High School is lo-ca-ted on north Fourth street. It is the large build-ing at the end of the street. The en-trance to the build-ing is through the doors, and not the win-dows. As you en-ter the build-ing re-move your head-piece un-less it is glued on. At your right you will see, a door. Place your head-piece in your left hand, grasp the door-knob in your right hand, and en-ter, af-ter first pull-ing the door o-pen. You will see, a large desk be-hind which sits a ver-y nice look-ing man, by the name of Mis-ter Wal-ters. He is the sup-er-in-tend-ent of the school. Take heed, care-less Fresh-man, and al-ways come to school. This room with the desk and the man is cal-led the Of-fice. Leg-son Two 1 When Mis-ter Wal-ters asks you what course you in-tend to take, be sure and tell him that you don’t know. This will please him great-ly. He will make you out a lit-tle card, which is your pro-gram. At the top of the pro-gram you will no doubt be sur-prised to find your name. However, don’t be start-led at it. That’s prob-ab-ly the way Mis-ter Wal-ters thought you spelled it. You will find your pro-gram and the class-rooms also writ-ten down. Af-ter fol-low-ing this pro-gram out all day, you will feel a little dis-cour-aged but keep it up! It’s a gay life if you don’t weaken. Af-ter you have been there a few days you’ll get so you don’t no-tice it. Leg-son Three 1 Learn the fol-low-ing words: Prin-ci-pal Jun-ior Book-er Sen-ior Orms-b.v As-sem-bly Soph-o-more Stud-y 2 Now that you have learned the first week’s trials and trib-u-la-tions, it is well that you should know now a-bout our prin-ci-pal and the as-sem-blies.

You, 0 Green-est of the green, must this year oc-cu-py a seat on the west side of the as-sem-bly hall, where you will week-ly wit-ness the slaugh-ter of the in-no-cents in the as-sem-bly. Your seat will be a-mong the members of the other Fresh-men. In the as-sem-bly are other stud-ents or the up-per class-men. They are called the Soph-o-mores, Juniors and the Migh-ty “Sen-iors.” The Sen-iors, un-der-stand, re-pre-sent the high-est form of ci-vi-li-za-tion. Gaze up-on them, O, hum-ble Fresh-man, and con-sid-er how much im-prove-ment you must show if you are to ev-er be-come as great as these re-mark-able speci-mens of hu-man-ity. And here, O Emeral-dine, shall your les-sons close, with a few fin-al sug-gest-ions. First, al-ways re-move your hat be-fore en-ter-ing the build-ing. Sec-ond, nev-er play hook-ey.

Don’t be an Ingersoll in an Elgin case. Where’s the joy in an elegant dental display if knock-knees, chill blains, or a stomach-ache prevent their proper functioning?

Don’t rattle through life with an engine that knocks and rattles. Be a light for sore eyes, a joy to the feminine glance. Be like me, Lionskin Eden. Be a pride to your school. Don’t mistake me for my rival, Stallsmith. Pills may make you fight but they won’t make you fit. Edenism (Egotism) is the science of good looks and robust health.

Who teaches of the dim and misty past? Of romantic kings and queens and battles too? Who asks for dates and maps, both first and last? Mary Emrich, our history teacher, that’s who. Gordon is the furniture man, He makes us work all that we can, But on exhibition day we feel proud When we hear what’s said by the crowd. N stands for Newlin, the teacher of Ag; His classes in work never, never must lag; In showing the farmer their most urgent needs, Rotation of crops, lime, alfalfa, better seeds. Who is it that’s willing, busy and jolly? The teacher of typing and shorthand, by golly. Who helps us to win every prize that is made? It’s our own commerce teacher, Thos. C. Tade.
