Principal J. Bruce Buckler Citizens of Casey High Class of 1941 Dear President Jim, Please convey to the class of 1941 the following thoughts relative to the most important of all final instructions before leaving the classrooms of Casey High School. Each of you will be shifting the emphasis of your citizenship from school to community. It is presumed that you are ready for this change. Your democratic citizenship involves your ability to participate in a fairly able manner in some phase of the work of the world of which you are a part. It involves a fairly high degree of understanding of the issues of your own day and the economic and social conditions under which you are living. It involves also a spirit of cooperation or a willingness to be mutually helpful to your fellow citizens. To be properly dedicated to its task, therefore, a high school—its student body, its faculty, its administrators, and its public—must seriously devote itself to training boys and girls to work, to think, and to serve. This, we trust, has been accomplished in a manner befitting the high type of citizen made possible by living in our community and by having attended Casey Township High School. 8

Watch Us Work Here we see the students of C. T. H. S. actually at work, and these are only a few of the vocations in which instruction is given. By means of these activities, many of them decide upon their life work. These vocations are not only instructive for the students, but are lots of fun for them as well. Debating, journalism, manual training, agriculture and photography are only a part of the interesting vocations taught. We're on the air waves. Don't hit your thumb Leo. Inside view of seed house. Monroney bears down. Developing in the darkroom. Victor edits the news. How much does it weigh boys? Total $186.33. 7
