A U T U M N The crisping, falling leaves, the dying rose. The rain, the dripping eaves, the wind that blows, The garden now so void of flowers seems To put an end to all your summer dreams. You've schemes of camping out or hikes on eves. Of merry woodland picnics, tramps through leaves; The nights are ushered in with cheerful fire And as the red flames leap, your dreams conspire. Within the smoke they travel up the flue Where mostly all your day dreams end in view Of knowledge that but small percentage tossed Are charted up as won and not as lost. So fill your Autumn days with work and fun; And dream beside the fire when day is done. Doris J. Staley '36. Page 28

CALENDAR September 2 Labor Day—Seniors begin their last labors. 3 Freshmen in wrong classrooms, as usual. 4 Oops!! Several people find that the floors have been waxed during the summer. 5 Students discover a few bad and many good points about their teachers. 6 Don't worry, Freshies, you won't always be green. Look at the Seniors. 9 Whoa, there! High School students who aspire to be race drivers find they are governed by Casey Police Force stationed at the grade school corner. 10 Don Ormsby, Balboa walked up a tree and discovered the Pacific Ocean. 11 We thought that most flowers were through blooming by now, but we see a few romances in the bud. 12 Watch out, Faculty!! Tomorrow is Friday, the thoiteenth. 13 The Casey Warriors journeyed to Mattoon to play their opening game. They were defeated by the heavier Mattoon eleven 14-0. The boys fought hard all through the game and threatened to score but could not put over a touchdown. 16 Classes may pass, and so ends all Monday morning assemblies. 17 School dismissed early on account of heat. Whew, it's hot! 19 Strange, stifling odors ensue from the chemistry laboratory, and so do the students. 23 Reverend Main gives interesting talk at Monday assembly. 24 Mr. Daugherty uses his new byword awk! frequently when wrong answers are given in science classes. 25 Illustrious Flame Staff of 1936 elected. Expect big things of them! 26 All school party. Freshies wander around the countryside in the wee small hours—also Mr. Ives. 27 Lovell Pulliam gives an imitation of a fancy ballet dancer on the slippery assembly floor. 28 The Casey boys engaged Robinson at Robinson. Both teams played a fine defensive game, but each lacked offensive power, the score being 0-0. We were heavily handicapped by the loss of one of our star back-field men, Clarence Townsend, who was on the injured list until the Paris game. 30 Another blue Monday. 31 Our second team beats Marshall's second team 6-0. Good omen! October 1 Mr. Bergeson says of course, in one History class exactly 1030 times by actual count. 2 Bleachers set up and football field lined. We are out for a good season this year. 3 School dismissed at noon to see Fall Festival Celebration. 4 Casey beats Charleston High in Story book finish game, of 12-0. Our Warriors marched out on the field determined to get revenge for Charleston's two victories of preceding years. It was a hard fought game climaxed by a forty-yard pass from Clayton Smith to Harry Clem that put the ball in scoring position. The winning touchdown came in the last minute of the game. 5 G. A. A. Play Day. 7 Group singing (more vigorous than usually because of new song books) and talk by Reverend Wilson for the Monday morning assembly. 8 Iris Underwood receives instructions that the word guy is not proper English.
