CARMICHAEL, a loyal sup-porter of all worthwhile activities in Frankfort High School, a genial and sympathetic teacher and friend, whose untiring efforts and innumerable hours of time, and whose gentle patience have brought the commercial department into state-wide repute, we, the Senior Class of 1925, dedicate this issue of THE CAULDRON. KATHERINE HOWARD Foreword MAY the coming years prove to the members of the Class of 1925 that the time spent in the Frankfort High School helped to lay the foundation which made them strong men and women; that the high school did its part in developing what are said to he the objectives of education: “worthy home membership, sound health, mastery of the intellectual tools needed in daily life, vocational effectiveness, intelligent and active citizenship, w ise use of leisure, and an ethical and spiritual character.” THE CAULDRON 19 2 5 Board of Education J.

THIRTY-THREE THE CAULDRON 19 2 5 Senior-Freshman Day Early on a bright January morning Howard Hall seemed to be over-run by numerous hordes—a conglomeration—of hideous, funny, cute, lively little people of a childish age. who were here, there, and everywhere. A whole tribe of fantastic dwarfs or midgets seemed suddenly to have been turned loose. Bright colors were flashing in and out of the rooms; the scpieaking of doll-babies mingled with the melodious thrum-thrum of banjo-ukes; games of ring-around-the-rosy were being played; the girlish giggles and the characteristic squeals of youth could be heard; boyish remonstrances were noticed as some young lady of a few summers had endeavored to choke her boy friend with a huge pickle or by a huge stick of striped peppermint candy. Short dresses reigned and large ribbon bows of various hues and shaped like huge butterflies were seen flitting about on several bobbed-haired damsels. Youngsters clad in checked gingham romper suits of the latest style shown in “Vogue” were skipping galy around, followed by the laughter of THIRTY-FOUR 19 2 5 THE CAULDRON the upper classmen, for these were the latest arrivals in high school—“The Freshmen”. No, it wasn’t a kindergarten, masquerade party, or the inmates from an insane asylum, but only the annual frolic of the Seniors, when all don kiddish clothes and are allowed to enjoy themselves, imitating the “freshies”. A few of the Seniors felt unable to lower their dignity to join in this merrymaking; so their pictures are not in the group of comical Seniors. This annual frolic is held from 8:00 to 9:12, after which the Seniors once more become sedate and dignified until their precious pictures are caught; then they wind reluctantly back to the dressing room and become in reality the highest class in high school in actions, looks, and to all outward appearances, except that here and there is seen a gorgeous bow on some shorn locks. It happens that this day only comes once in the dear high school days, and four years of high school life must be passed through ere the student may have a part in his own Senior-Freshman Day.

T asked him if there still survived A member of the class of 25. He said that he would tell me all he knew; Then I discovered he was Kennith Virtue. The following tale he did relate, And now you shall hear of their fate. A beautiful maid by the name of Speer Was manufacturing white near-beer. Good, Ham, Bogan, and Schultz had performed wonderful feats In trying to imitate Shelley, Byron, and Keats. Very successful they had been, And were dwelling at Roofless Inn. Four famed students, Hiatt, Power. Thomas, and Crum, Had united in marriage, and were manufacturing gum. Their neighbors, Kathylene Mundell and Edith Maish, Fed them up on vegetable hash. Two very tall men named, W. Cummins and G. Barton. Had organized a waterless fire department. They pitched horseshoe, sprinkled the streets, And did such remarkable feats. Two flappers, Dorothy Dick and Wanda Brown, Were the best dancers in the town. They hated the men and ’twas a sin, For they were certainly good lookin’. Ethel Skidmore and Harold White has been pronounced man and wife. Ethel had just purchased a new rolling pin From the ten cent store clerk, Dorothea Blinn. Dorsey Ayres and Mary Schenck Were manufacturing yarn by the hank. They sold it to Evelyn Weaver; She was trying to make her a coat of beaver. Vivian W'ainscott was a peddler of dresses, And she had been in some terrible messes. Helen Balfe, Vivian’s seamstress, brave and bold. Took all the snaps off the frocks before they were sold. Ed Hodge, the handsome young rover, Had just returned home to start all over. His little companion, Ernie Snodgrass, Was famous by catching blue and white bass. LaMoine Hammersley had gone far away To learn to cut up people and cure them that way. L. Stott and M. Heaton worked for their pay, And taught all the students how to make hay. 19 2 5 THE CAULDRON Max Crawford was a great steel seller; He made lots of money from the wooden propeller. Louise Chittick kept all kinds of cats and canaries; She trained them to he like little fairies. Nettibelle Childress was terribly thin, And she was the star in the play called “Oh, Men . James Merritt was a knight of old, And was chasing the owner of a hair pin of gold. Misery Moore was a “bob haired bandit” on the western shore. And chased the cowboys until their feet were sore. Asher Irwin and G. Silver were living in Portland, Maine, But are flying around the world in a wingless airplane. G. McNutt and R. Rardin are managers of a lip stick corporation, And spending their pay is their biggest occupation. Bernadine Morrison set out to sea in a sieve, And claimed that if she didn’t die she would be sure to live. Floyd Mohler and Fay Boys live near the Hudson Bay, And gaze at the stars all night and day. D. Slipher, M. Wright, and R. Moore ring the Telephone bell, And listen in on secrets they always tell. Little Helen Hardesty had grown very tall and fat, But she had become a great ball player and was quick at the bat. L. R. Ayers, L. Gaylor, and C. Baird were bell hops in N. Y. City, And on peoples purses took little pity. Helen Leader and Bernice Myers had invented white gold pliers. They were pulling teeth by the score, And giving them to the man next door. Grace Southard turned over a new page of evolution When she proved that man was a chemical solution. Monzelle Buck and Marie Lucas had been brought to great fame, F'or they had just proven that two and two are the same. And then I heard of our good friend Speedy Ross, lie was now a great section boss. Thera Hammack had been seriously scared twice. Am! this had been done both times by some mice. Guy McKinsey had contrived a wonderful fate, For he was serving as Secretary of State. Madeline Merriman had learned to swim, But had given it up because she was getting so thin. Ruth Webster who taught us the finale hop Celebrated the event and married a traffic cop. The great inventors, Knabe, Jenkins and W. Zinn Had worked very hard to invent the pointless pin. THE CAULDRON 19 2 3 The Senators C. Ham, Hayes, and Knepp, Wrangled over a bill and lost all their pep. 1. Bogan and M. Brunnemer. great circus performers. Were announcing to the world they would be reformers. The renown astronomers, M. Humphrey and T. LaMar, Were confronted by the task of making a star. The butterfly catchers. Carl Shaver and Dorris Barnett, Were travelling abroad to learn to tame a hornet. They spent all their time in Kalamazoo park. And learned that the keeper was no other than F. Clark. Poor Harold Rhodenbaugh had had a hard fit Because his wife M. Pletch had made a big hit. Fred Coulter was becoming quite pale Trying to find a three lettered word meaning rail. M. Oberton and R. Rubino had been on the stage, But now they were retired because of old age. Colice Shawhan. a conquerer of men, Was dwelling with her husband at Roofless Inn. Eleanor Martin had moved to Pike’s Peak. And there she was flirting with an Arabian shiek. Xell Alexander had caused a great striie When she and President Johnson became man and wife. Eugene Wilson and R. Bayless were travelling Africa far and wide, And teaching the cannibals the finale glide. Evelyn Bond and Eva Johnson were bathing beach beauties, And were shamefully neglecting their household duties. Mae Louck and her friend Guy Roach Were sailing the sea in Matrimony coach. Esther Stewart for seventeen years had been in a college, And she was still there collecting more knowledge. Mary McEwen, a beautiful gypsy maid. Predicted that Y. Binkley’s beauty never would fade. Ruth Brookie and Audra Elsa were flappers quite gay, And jilted the men in a heart-breaking way. Albert Marshall was always falling in luck, And had just been made valet to the famous King Tuck. Among the fancy fruit growers was Helen Green; Her latest product was the banana bean, Helen Goff and Nell Mackey, those maids of yore. Had invested their millions in a Penny store. The cop then told me a very sad tale How T. Halloran and J. Gum had been put in jail; M. Cochran and L. Bond furnished the bail. Ernest Johnson, who had been a radio bug. Was now an acrobat and juggled a jug. 192 5 THE CAULDRON The star of the season was Mary A. Shay, And her personal director was Mildred Spray. John Merrill was a refined foreign minister. And had had a bad ease with an English spinster. Esther Johnson, Clarice Kenney, and Ruby Nice Had married Chinamen and were learning to cook rice. The best bee catcher in town was Frances Young; She toyed and petted them but never was stung. Many people thought Everett Gangwer was in jail. But this was his twentieth year at Yale. M. Van Nuys was the composer of a piano solo. But now she is making her mark at polo. Mildred Larick had contracted sneeze fever, And called in nurse K. Merrill to kill or relieve her. Helen Manning had written a one page book. And now she is a coquette at Sunny Side Brook. Ted Tankersley had returned from a town of Spain, And settled down in the South to raise sugar cane. James Maish, who used to drive a school hack. Is now manufacturing the Sharp tack. In New York they are building a sky scraper of brick And the contractor, both famous and single, is Frances Crick. Rosaline Jones was a foreign missionary, But now she teaches the art of running a dairy. John Cook is a chef in an Antioch cafe, And breaks fifty dishes almost every day. I told the cop 1 must be on my way, But promised to come back some other day. 1 hope that the class will still survive After reading this prophecy of ’25.

The object of the Sunshine Society is to help with Charity work and other worthy causes. The Sunshine Society was called together in September of this year for the purpose of reorganizing. The following officers were elected for the year 1924-25; Ruth E. Webster, President; Mildred Larick. Vice-President; Colice Shawhan, Secretary; and Mildred Heaton, Treasurer. The first step of the society was to receive the Freshmen girls into the society. As there were several new teachers also, a “Get-Acquainted” party was given in the Central Gymnasium on September 27. After a very interesting program, cleverly carried out by the upper-classmen, the Freshmen and new teachers were made acquainted with all the members of the society, and a social time was enjoyed. Refreshments were served from booths in the hall. The annual Hallowe’en Party was the most welcome social event of the season. This was a very great success, financially as well as socially. It was held in Central Gymnasium, which was appropriately decorated for the occasion. The feature of the evening was the Vaudeville presented by Sunshine members in the auditorium of Central. 1 his was quite original and interesting. Following this entertainment, the guests were ushered to the gymnasium, where the remainder of the evening was spent in dancing. The Valentine party was held February 12 in Central Building. This was somewhat on the same order as the Hallowe’en party. A valentine post-office was held two days prior to the party. The program and dancing were the main features of the evening. The convention was held at Martinsville this year, April 24-25. The source of income has been, chiefly, from the candy sold at basket-ball games, and during the tournaments. A sum of ten dollars was cleared by the girls by selling two hundred sandwiches the evening the tickets for the Vincennes game went on sale. The following account will show what the society has accopmplished this year: Total Amount Handled............................$928.17 Total Expenses.................................. 547.18 Total Profits................................... 380.99 Total Charities................................. 170.09 Balance on hand April 1.......................... 210.90 FIFTY-FIVE THE CAULDRON 19 2 5 Bottom Row—Dorothy Cohce, Vernice O’Mullane, Caroline Connaroc, Rosalie Irwin, Mary Barnard.

The Websterian Club In the spring of 1919, the students in the Public Speaking classes formed the Delphinian Club under the supervision of Lois E. Smith. The club derived its name from the old Greek word “Delphi”, which means “The Fountain of Knowledge”. This was a very well-chosen name, and, by keeping the motto before them, the organization functioned very successfully. However, when Joseph B. Disher became a member of the faculty, a new club was instituted in the fall of 1923. It was called the Websterian Club, taking its name from that of Daniel Webster, one of the most eminent orators that the United States ever produced—or the whole world, for that matter. The choice was extremely appropriate, for the purpose of the organization is to promote interest in drama and oratory. The meetings of the Websterian Club this year have been especially instructive and entertaining. As the club is deeply interested in plays, there have been many reviews and discussions given.

It is really too bad that a picture of the Hottentot himself could not be procured, but when asked to pose for his photo, he declined rather violently. Since no one cared to be kicked or bitten, no further effort was made to persuade him. However, all who attended the performance, and saw the condition of Frank Conley after riding this ferocious beast will have a fairly good idea of his appearance. Frank Conley and Mary Caroline Barnard took the leading roles. The play was directed by Miss Helen Geyer. and under her leadership was a marked success.

Curia Latina One of the oldest organizations in Frankfort High School is the Latin Club. For a number of years this club has been called Curia Latina, which means “Latin assembly”. The meetings of the club are conducted, in so far as possible, after the plan of the old Roman assemblies. There are three main officers: senior and junior consuls, who preside alternately month by month as did the Roman consuls; and the scriba, who is the secretary-treasurer. The officers for this year are Paul Johnson, Robert Quick, and Vivian Wainscott. The chairman of the publicity committee, who is Maurayne Bolt, is the High Life reporter. The chairman of the program committee, Louise Chittick, has had the most strenuous work to do, for she has had to be responsible for all the programs.

The Latin Contests This year the second State Latin Contest, which was conceived by the Classical Section of the State Teachers’ Association in 1923, was held at Indiana University, Bloomington. The first contest was held in 1924 at the same place, and Carolyn Goar, Frankfort’s only contestant, placed third, winning a bronze medal. The plans for this year’s contest were practically the same as those of last year. There were the five following divisions: the IB and 1A Divisions, which include Latin Grammar, the Caesar Division, the Cicero Division, and the Vergil Division. There were three preliminary contests leading to the state contest. The first contest was the local contest in which about twelve thousand pupils in 415 high schools all over the state entered. The winners of this contest entered the county contest. Those winning the first two places in the county contest were eligible for the district contest, and the winner from the district entered the state. The winners in our local contest were: Division IB, Marie Johnston, FIFTY-NINE THE CAULDRON 19 2 5 Helen Aughe, and Helen Zerfas; Division 1A, Kenneth Lucas, William Robinson, and Roberta Endicott; Caesar, Carolyn Goar, Madge Reagan, and Evelyn Horlacher; Cicero, Josephine Lucas, Aaron Lucas, and Katherine Zimmerschied; and the Vergil. Paul Johnson, Lucile Thomas, and John Mc-Kinsey. The third winner acted as alternate, and the first and second winners entered the county contest. The winners in the county contest were: Division IB, Marie Johnston and Helen Aughe; Division 1A, Kenneth Lucas and William Robinson; Caesar, Carolyn Goar and Madge Reagan; Cicero. Josephine Lucas and Helen Coyner (Colfax); and Vergil. Paul Johnson and Lucile Thomas. These winners entered the district contest. The contest for the Ninth District was held at Frankfort in April. The Curia Latina entertained the contestants at a banquet served by the ladies of the Christian Church. The Frankfort contestants who placed were Josephine Lucas, winner in the Cicero Division; Paul Johnson, winner in the Vergil Division; Carolyn Goar, winner of the second place in the Caesar Division; Lucile Thomas, winner of second place in the Virgil Division, and William Robinson and Kenneth Lucas, winners of the second and third places in Division 1A. This made Frankfort winner of this district contest and sent Josephine Lucas and Paul Johnson to the state contest. During all the contests the local contestants studied very hard under the local Latin instructors, who were headed by Miss Josephine Lee. Although Frankfort failed to place in the state contest, still it is felt that this year was more successful than last because of the widespread interest in the contest, the larger number of entrants, and the generally higher averages.

This is the cause of the success of the Forum of Frankfort High School for the school term, 1924 and 1925. The purpose of the Forum is serious; therefore, the membership consists of serious-minded boys. As a debate or public speaking club, the Forum accomplishes three definite and outstanding things. Through the Forum, the members are taught to talk intelligently before a critical audience; they are kept familiar with issues of the day. the current events; and they are taught proper parliamentary procedure. Under the semester Presidents, Ernest Johnson and Paul Johnson, the Forum has successfully sponsored two of the greatest activities of high school life. The annual Forum-Homecoming banquet, which is held every Thanksgiving, is probably the greatest connecting link between the school and its graduates. In view of this, Frankfort High School sincerely appreciates the efforts of Mr. P. T. Coapstick. the Forum critic, in forming and holding together ths part of the school life. Through Mr. Coapstick’s efforts this seemingly permanent part of Frankfort High School has just completed its sixth year, since its organization in 1919. THE CAULDRON 19 2 5 Affirmative Debate Team Sitting—George Barton, Mr. Coapstick, Ernest Johnson. Standing—Paul Hiatt, Robert Agnew. The Affirmative Debate A shield which signified the winning of the Triangular Debate between Lebanon, Crawfordsville, and Frankfort was presented to the student body again this year by the debate teams, completing the first successful season since 1920. One of the causes contributing to the victory of the Affirmative team was the loyal support on the part of the high school. Over three hundred people were in Central Auditorium, on February 12, by far the greater part of whom were students, to inspire their team with confidence to vanquish Lebanon. The question for the debate was one of vital interest to the American people, having been an issue in the presidential election of the preceding year. It was: “Resolved, that the power of the Supreme Court to declare statutes unconstitutional should be restricted—‘restricted' defined to mean by a two-thirds vote of Congress.” The fact that the Negative had slightly the better of the question was apparent to everyone, but, due to the ingenuity of Captain Ernest Johnson, Robert Agnew, Paul Hiatt, and George Barton, the Affirmative team overcame its disadvantage and won by a two to one decision of the judges. 19 2 5 THE CAULDRON Negative Debate Team Sitting—Paul H. Johnson. Mr. Coapstick, Harold White. Standing—Joe Downing. Ernest Snodgrass. The Negative Debate The negative team, under the leadership of Harold White, captain, journeyed to Crawfordsville and defeated an affirmative team representing Craw-t’ordsville High School. The dehate in Frankfort, between the Frankfort affirmative and Lebanon negative was won by the Frankfort debaters, captained by Ernest Johnson. Mr. Coapstick. by shrewd coaching, developed the teams to a noticeable easiness of delivery, and their argument, with especially effective rebuttals, made it possible for Frankfort to be so well represntd. Mr. 1’. '1'. Coapstick, debate coach, has said that, as a whole, this year’s teams were among the very best he has had the privilege of coaching. Although five members of this year’s teams are being graduated with the class of 1925, Frankfort will have another good team for next year. Those who are being graduated and the number of years they were on the team are as follows: Ernest Johnson, three years; Harold White, two years; Ernest Snodgrass, George Barton, and Paul Johnson, all one year. This year’s victory is the first for Frankfort in Triangular debate since 1921. SIXTY-THREE THE CAULDRON 19 2 5 Sitting—Robert Fowler, Fred Coulter, Ernest Johnson, Harold White. Standing—Paul H. Johnson. Robert Quick. George Barton, Richard Crain, Aaron Lucas. Boosters’ Club In 1918 the faculty found that it was almost impossible to care for all school matters. As a result, a group of nine representative boys of the high school was selected by the faculty. Five boys represented the seniors, and four represented the juniors. As the five seniors gradutaed, one senior of the following year and four juniors were again selected to make up the club of nine. This plan has been followed ever since. Since the founding of the organization, the club has made several substantial contributions to the high school. The office safe and the filing cabinet are two very practical presents. The Boosters’ Club established the honor roll board which was destroyed in the fire. On this honor roll board were copper plates, bearing the names of every student who had made a success in some department of the school. With the building of the new High School, the Boosters’ Club hopes to re-establish the honor roll, and replace all names destroyed and add the names of all students eligible since the destruction of the building. The officers and members this year are Ernest Johnson, President; Harold White. Vice-President; George Barton, Secretary; Fred Coulter, Treasurer; and Paul Johnson. Aaron Lucas, Robert Quick, Richard Crain, and Robert Fowler. SIXTY-FOIK 192 5 THE CAULDRON HIGH LIFE STAFF Bottom Row—Pauline Hough, Harold Ross. Nettiebelle Childress, Harold White. Mary Schenck.

High Life rhe paper that is published every two weeks under the supervision of the Boosters Club is called the Frankfort “High Life”. This name for the paper is really an abbreviation for High School Life. In the school term of 1918-19. the Boosters’ Club decided that they would like to issue a paper and the High Life is the result. From that year on the practice of issuing the paper semi-monthly during the school year has been followed. The paper is now passing through its most successful year from both the news and financial standpoints. From time to time the contents and policy of the paper may have been slightly changed, but the paper is usually made up of editorials, sports, jokes, features, special departments, society, and advertisements. The business men of Frankfort have shown the utmost generosity in placing advertising in the paper. The Journalism class of each year has done much in furnishing material for the High Life. Each member of the class has responded faithfully to the call to help, and the writing of these articles not only helped the paper, but gave the students practice in writing. The officers for this year’s paper were: Harold Ross, editor-in-chief; Harold White, business manager; Robert Quick, advertising manager; Robert Agnew, assistant manager; Pauline Hough, cartoonist; John Tuck, sports editor; Mary Van Nuys, society editor; James Merritt, Senior reporter; Caroline Conarroe, Websterian reporter; Mau-rayne Bolt, Curia Latina. The faculty advisor is Mr. Haven McClure, and the success of this paper is due primarily to his deep interest and untiring effort.

Mechanics’ Club In the past school season, the Mechanics’ Club of Frankfort High School, which was organized in the year of 1919 for the purpose of more social life among the male-students, has had a most successful year. With only eight old members with which to start last fall, the membership of the organization grew to eighteen. The officers of the past season were: Edward Hodge, President; Harold Ross, Vice-President; H. Newton Oliphant, Secretary; Robert Quick, Treasurer. Meetings were held each Monday evening of the school year in the Manual Training rooms of the Central Building. James Davis, Manual Training and Mechanical Drawing instructor of the local high school, is the faculty advisor and sponsorer. Mr. Davis was one of the most vital causes for the organization of this club, and has been a great factor in the doings of same ever since. To belong to the Mechanics' Club one must have had. previous to his formal entry, at least one semester of either Mechanical Drawing or Manual Training, and he must also be eligible in his studies. The full-fledged purpose of the organization is to create more social life among its members. Parties and dances were given and each one proved nothing short of successful.

The Typewriting Department The typewriting department is gradually coming to the front, and it is beginning to accomplish great things. Many certificates and medals have been won this year. This department is of great importance for typewriting and is one of the essential things to one entering the business world. It is very truly a vocational study. The interest taken by the students of this department is due entirely to the enthusiasm and interest which Mr. Vernal Carmichael, the instructor, takes in his work. He is a most capable teacher, and he has contrived many ways to get and hold the attention of his pupils. The contest given for class championship, the honor of being on the big tens, and class championship in one and five minute tests arouse much enthusiasm in the work and promote speed and accuracy. These interclass competitions stimulate proficiency in stenographic practice. The greatest honor acquired in this department is that of being on the teams, the novice and amateur. The District Contest was held April 18 at Tipton. Indiana. The State Contest was held at Muncie, May 1. The Novice team placed fourth, and the Amateur team placed fifth at the State Contest.

Shorthand and Bookkeeping Teams Working with the principle of “hanging on , Mr. Carmichael brought his shorthand and bookkeeping teams to full light this year at the district contest in Tipton. Both groups won first honors; the three members of the shorthand team were accorded individual honors, and two of the bookkeeping teams achieved the same distinction. Frankfort’s representatives at Muncie, where the state contest was held, were battling against strong opposition; but Mary Schenck of the shorthand team succeeded in winning the gold medal, a symbol of State Shorthand Championship. Mr. Carmichael, himself, deserves a eulogy, because were it not for his constant instillation of persistency into his contestants, our winnings would have been negligible. At the conference which followed the Muncie tourney, he discussed “Getting Results in Bookkeeping before the commercial teachers of Indiana. Mr. Carmichael was honored by being elected to a three year term as member of the State Contest Committee, and alternately serving body, as successor to Mr. Northrop of Fort Wayne. It is highly probable that next year the commercial department of Frankfort High School will continue under the high standard set this year. SIXTY- NINE THE CAULDRON 19 2 5 Vocational Agriculture 1924-1925 This year has witnessed a very decided increase in the enrollment for courses offered in the Vocational Agriculture Department. Due to the general agricultural depression which has passed over the rural districts since the war, many boys were discouraged from following the vocation of farming, hence the enrollment fell to as low as twenty-five students in 1923-24. However, with the passing of the peak of financial depression last summer, there has been a tendency toward a back-to-the-farm movement resulting in an increase in agricultural students to forty in the fall of 1924. As in other years the Agricultural Department has this year sent judging teams to the state contests held at Purdue University the first week in May. The corn judging team this year consisted of Elmer Holst, Asher Irwin, Edward Brant, and Kenneth Smith. In this contest there were fifty-three teams, or one hundred and fifty-nine contestants. Elmer Holst made a very creditable score, placing sixth as individual judge. The egg and poultry judging teams consisted of Elmer Holst, Herman Colby, Charles Painter, and Cecil Young. This team as a whole did very well. In the Purdue Egg Show students from the agricultural department exhibited six dozens of eggs. Each exhibit except one placed high enough to receive a ribbon. One exhibit entered by Raymond Blinn was exceptionally good, scoring 94.4 and placed second. The exhibit which placed first was entered by a vocational boy from Marion. His exhibit won a silver cup and scored only one-tenth of a point higher than Raymond Blinn’s. Elmer Holst entered one dozen of eggs in the same class and won third. Both Elmer and Raymond will receive a five dollar setting of eggs as a premium. The Purdue Club Round-Up was attended this year by sixty-four boys and girls from Clinton County, being from Forest and Frankfort High School Vocational Departments.

Boys’ Glee Club The Boys’ Glee Club, this year composed of about twenty-five boys, entered for the first time the annual State Glee Club Contest at Indianapolis, and was accorded third honors. The expenses of the trip were defrayed by the presentation of the operetta “Sylvia” by the Music Department. The Club is an active organization; it sings for school entertainments and frequently before business men’s associations. SEVENTY-THREE THE CAULDRON 19 2 5 The Operetta “Sylvia” is the name of the quaint costume operetta by Rhys-Herbert presented by Miss Nixon and her Music Department. The proceeds from the performances were used to send the Glee Clubs to Indianapolis for the State Contest. The picturesque setting of the play is an English hayfield. The plot hinges upon the whimsies of two love lorn maidens who exchange lovers and at the end of a day are more than ready to return to their first allegiances. Conducive to the success of the play were the excellent interpretations of each singer. So well were the actors trained that the presentation was not only entertaining to the audience, but also of great value in the acquiring of real knowledge and appreciation of musical productions by the singers themselves. SEVENTY-FOUR 19 2 5 THE CAULDRON A trio of young musicians accompanied the singers very capably, including: Colice Shawhan, pianist. Virginia McCarty, flutist. William Zinn, violinist.

Orchestra Ehe Orchestra is perhaps the oldest organization in High School, for its taditional history extends beyond the limit of known records. However, we know that it has grown from a comparatively small group of players to the large and growing organization that we now have. The orchestra is composed of thirty members, and is made up as follows: ten violins, one ’cello, one double bass, one flute, five clarinets, three saxophones, four cornets, one mellophone. two trombones, drums and piano. The high school orchestra has for the last three years sent representatives to the All State High School Orchestra, an organization assembled from orchestras all over the state. It plays at many school activities, such as operettas, cantatas, plays, and commencement functions, besides giving a separate concert. Miss Nixon, supervisor of music in the public schools, is the conductor. Under her guidance the orchestra has made marked advancement, and is truly indebted to her for its success.

It was organized early in the fall, and furnished entertainment between halves in the basket-ball games that were played in Howard Hall. The band not only furnished music at basketball games, but it gave concerts at the following places: November 21. 1924. at St. Luke's Church; January 6. 1925. at Jefferson High School; January 27, 1925, at Geetingsville; February 3, 1925, at Kirklin High School; February 17. 1925. Colfax Christan Church. Mr. Karl Kraft has had charge of the band this year, and it is due to his ability and to his untiring efforts that the band has been a success The members of the band have 1 een greatly benefitted by the training received under his direction. We all hope that next year, many students will join this organization, and make it again one of the outstanding organizations in the school. SEVliXTV-SEVKN THE CAULDRON 19 2 5 Bottom Row—Mae Louks.

The Staccato Club The Staccato Club, which in previous years was known as the Junior Matinee Musicale. has been as successful under its new name as it was under its old. Its purpose is to cultivate interest in music and music appreciation, to develop local talent, and to inspire a love for musical culture and attainment. In carrying out these things the club has this year far surpassed any previous efforts. A concert sponsored by the club was given in the Central Auditorium, February 20, by the Orloff Trio and Mrs. Frances Johnson. The trio consists of a piano, ’cello, and violin and was very entertaining. Mrs. Johnson was remembered as the soprano soloist two years ago when “The Rose Maiden” was given. A bakery, to insure enough money to cover the expenses of the concert, was held the week before. Nelle Alexander and Carolyn Goar were sent as delegates to the state music convention held at Indianapolis. A number of new ideas were presented there and with these the success of the club next year is assured. This year’s officers were: Nelle Alexander, president; Mildred Montgomery, treasurer; Georgia Dorner, secretary. SEVENTY-BIGHT 19 2 5 THE CAULDRON EVERETT CASE The Best Coach in the State. SEVENTY-NINE THE CAULDRON 19 2 5 WILBUR CUMMINS. This was “Cotton’s” third year as varsity center. He went better this year than ever before Was the best scorer that ever played on a Frankfort team. His long “swish-ers” won more than one game for the Fighting Five. Made all-state center. Was the best jumper in the state this year. Had his name on the Kilmer trophy for sportsmanship. He is lost by graduation. FRED COULTER. “Freddy” was the regular back guard on the team this year. Before this he had been an understudy of Marvin Pogue. He played a great game at guard. His long shots from the side of the floor brought the crowd to its feet many a time. He broke up many a play under the basket that would have scored. “Freddy” is a senior and is lost by graduation. He also had his name on the Kilmer sportsmanship trophy. ROBERT SPRADLING “Sprad” played in every game this year until the sectional. He was exposed to smallpox just before the sectional and had to be vaccinated. He went big all through the season. Was a great scorer. Pulled many a game out of the fire by his tip-in shots. Helped bring the shield home. Will be back next year. DOYAL PLUNKITT “Buck” started the season off as a substitute. His playing in the games he participated in won him a place as a varsity forward. Made all state. He was the most consistent player in the tournament. His timely baskets in all the games were the only thing that saved the Fighting Five from defeat. Will be with us next year. MARVIN GOOD, Captain “Pete” is the name he is known by to most of the fans. He captained the team for the second year. He was all-state floor guard and earned it. His leadership won the state for us. He was always going at top speed and never let down. Played in every game this season. Taken from only one game on personals during four years of play. He is lost by graduation. 19 2 5 THE CAULDRON n MILFORD TONEY. Toney was rather out of luck. He was understudy to ‘‘Pete” Good. As Pete” hardly ever left a game Toney did not have any chance to play. When he did get in. he showed Coach Case that he had a great substitute floor guard. Also played forward. Will be back next year. JOHN HAM “Johnnie” started the season playing regular forward opposite Spradling. He showed great work both on the guarding and on scoring. About the middle of the season he gave up his place to Buck Plunkitt. It was no disgrace to lose a place to such a player as Plunkitt and “Johnnie” was not disheartened. He played in the sectional and distinguished himself for his fight. He is lost by graduation. GEORGE SHULTZ George is another of the second team stars who made good. George was a sub on the regular squad at the first of the season but lie never saw varsity action. His great work in the second Martinsville game won his place for him on the first squad. George will be back next year. RUDOLPH BEHR Rudolph was ineligible the first semester of the year, but he came out the second half and played his best. He was the most reliable substitute for Coulter on the squad. He saw action in a number of games. Played a great defensive game. Will be back next year. RAY CARMAN Ray started off playing regular forward on the second team. He was also a varsity substitute. His great work on the seconds soon won him a sure place on the first squad. In all the games he played he got his share of the field goals. He will be back next year. THE CAULDRON 19 2 5 Bottom Row—Ray Carman, Marvin Good, Doyal Plunkitt. Second Row—Milford Tonev, Robert Spradling. Fred Coulter, John Ham. Top Row—Mr. Case, Robert Shultz, Wilbur Cummins, Rudolph Behr, Mr. Davis. Season ’24-’25 This season Coach Case had three positions to fill. They were those of Holz, Petty, and Pogue. However, there were many reliable players among last year’s substitutes and last year’s second team. At the first call for candidates about one hundred men turned out. They were given extensive work outs on the track before being brought in. After this track training the squad was brought in onto Howard Hall floor. After each man had shown Coach Case what he could do, the squad was cut. The first cut left the squad with thirty men. In a few days the squad was again cut to twenty men. This squad was carried all through the rest of the season. At the opening game of the season, which was with Rossville, every one who could possibly come was on the bleachers to welcome the ’25 team. Rossville gave the team a harder battle than the score indicated. However, the Rossville crew was outclassed and the first victory was to the tune of 59-16. The starting line up was Ham and Spradling forwards; Cummins. center; Good and Coulter, guards. The second game opened the season for Martinsville at the Artesian City. This EIGHTY-TWO 19 2 5 THE CAULDRON game was a great game all the way through. Martinsville missed many of their under the basket shots, while the Casemen made them count. The final score was 39-27. The Martinville fans said that the Fighting Five was a strong contender for the state title. The third victory was at the expense of Greencastle on the Howard Hall floor. There was never much doubt as to the outcome of this game. Cummins and Sprad-ling. as usual, accounted for most of the points. The final score was 64-17. The fourth game and victory was the fiercest battle on the home floor since it has been built. Rochester led all through the game by 5 and 10 points up until the last 7 minutes. Then began a rally which started the greatest comeback ever seen in a basketball game. The Casemen accounted for 20 points in these last few minutes and won, 43-33. The scoring was done by Cummins, Spradling and Ham; while Good took care of the work of getting the ball down the floor. Our oldest rival. Franklin, came next. The Franklin aggregation coached by our old coach “L«ossie” was determined to stop the fast flying Frankforters. Cummins with his ever present long shots. Spradling with his tip in shots, and Coulter breaking up good plays, spelled defeat for Franklin by the score of 35-32. Wirey was best for Franklin. Next the Fighting Five journeyed to Columbus to take on the ‘‘Bull Dogs” of that city. They gave the Casemen a great fight and died gamely to the tune of 36-26. The seventh game rivalled the Rochester game for fierceness. Kokomo worked the ball down the floor time after time to take shots that were never missed. They finally came out ahead. They had played Beatty, a man of nine semesters, and this game was later declared a forfeit. This brought the list of wins up to seven. Manual Training of Indianapolis had made a good record so far this season and came up here determined to stop the Frankfort aggregation. The Case coached machine showed them what they thought of records and came out on top, 50-25. They were never threatened throughout the entire contest. The team next went to Richmond to take on the fast Morton crew. The Case-men started off with a bang and were never headed throughout the whole contest. Time after time Richmond would get the ball under their basket only to miss easy shots. This game was won, 48-19. The tenth game was chalked up against Lebanon. Nevertheless, they put up a game but futile battle to go down to the score of 47-17. Muncie had not lost a game this season. They were expected to take the flying Casemen down. They were surprised by the Casemen on New Year’s Rve and set back, 33-23. They had a great team and the battle was fierce, but the Fighting Five showed its class. During the Christmas vacation the team elected ‘‘Pete” Good captain, an honor which he held for the second year in succession. Kmerson of Gary, “The Golden Tornado of the North,” next fell before the Case-nun. They were considered a sure stumbling block for Frankfort, but the Casemen went into the contest determined to give the dope bucket a good kick. They did and number twelve was rung up to the tune of 46-31. Thirteen proved not to be a jinx to the Fighting Five and they took Lebanon down again. 54-33. This game was played on the Howard Hall floor. Many fans came up from Lebanon to witness the contest. The team hit a slump at this stage of the season. “Bob” Spradling sprained his ankle and some of the others were sick. The team took on the strong Vincennes team in the small Vincennes gym. They were defeated. 57-36; Sprad could not Play fast and the others seemed to be way off form. The team went to work the next week and after many a hard practice session took on Bloomington here. The Bloom-ingtonites lost the contest, 49-21. This was a hotter contest than the score indicates. Again the team met Franklin, this time at Franklin. Again the Casemen were considered the underdogs. They showed the THE CAULDRON 1925 dopcstcrs that dope meant nothing and proceeded to drub Franklin, 42-34. Next came Kokomo without Beatty. The Casemen went over to Kokomo with a win in mind and were not disappointed. They piled up a big lead the first half, but lost some of it in the second. The final score was 43-35. Spradling had a bad hip in this game and was not playing as well as usual. Nearly everybody in Frankfort was at the “Koke” gym. “Buck” Plunkitt was now playing regular forward in place of Ham. Vincennes came along looking for an easy win, but went back with a 41-40 defeat. The game was a scorcher from start to finish. The Casemen outscored the southerners from the field but lost their advantage at the foul line. Cummins received a torn ligament in his knee during this week’s practice and was out of the nineteenth game. George Shultz played in his place and played a great game. Cummins’ timely field goals were missed by the team and they lost to Martinsville. 31-29. The last regular game of the season was with Columbus. Cummins and Sprad were both out of this game. It was a slow game, but the Fighting Five emerged victorious. 33-26. Shultz and Good accounted for most of Frankfort’s points. This finished the season for the Case-men with eighteen games won and two lost. They were yet to be heard from in the state later, however. The Sectional Tournament. Spradling was out of the game for the sectional with a vaccination on his arm and Cummins was still hobbling around with a bad knee. However, the team had little trouble in winning their three games to be sectional champs. In their first game, the Casemen defeated Colfax, 40-4. The game was slow and uninteresting. John Ham was playing in Spradling's position and turned in a fine record. The second win was over Rossville. The score was 46-23. This game was featured by Ham’s playing as was the first. In the finals, Frankfort met Michigantown, who had battled their way into the finals with a sensational finish to beat Scirclcville. Michigantown put up a great fight, but they were hopelessly outclassed by the Fighting Five and they went down. 58-10. The Regional Tournament. Frankfort was fortunate this year to have a regional at Howard Hall. Spradling was back on the squad and was performing at top speed. Cummins’ knee was also better. Our first opponent was Clinton. After an early lead, Clinton dropped back and lost the encounter, 49-11. Clayton showed a lot of stuff in their first game and were on hand to try their luck on the Casemen. Thompson, Clayton center, put them into a six point lead by sinking three field goals in quick succession. The Frankfort boys then fought them to a standstill and came out on the big end of a 38-12 score. This victory gave Frankfort the right to compete in the state finals at Indianapolis. The State Tournament. Frankfort was not considered to have much of a chance to win this year. They had the hardest schedule to play of any team in the tournament. There were no easy teams on the list. At four o’clock Friday afternoon Frankfort met Froebel of Gary. The contest which ensued was one that will never be forgotten by anyone who saw the game. Frankfort played a ragged game and when the half was over they led by a bare margin. Froebel started a rally, and with everything going their way. the game ended with Frankfort out in front, 25-23. Muncie, the next opponent of the Fighting Five, beat Martinsville. Martinsville was considered to be the strongest contender for the title. In a fast game Muncie went down before the Fighting Five to the score of 24-16. Next came “Shootin ’Em’s” dark horse, Washington. Washington led at the end of the first half but the Frankforters came back strong to win, 30-25. This game showed that Captain Good was holding the team back and not letting them run away from themselves. At eight o’clock Saturday night the Fighting Five ran up against Kokomo, who had beaten Vincennes, Shootin’ 'Em’s pick. Walter put Kokomo 19 2 5 THE CAULDRON out in front, 6-0, at the start of the game hut the fans from the Gem City never lost their pep. Captain Good was again holding his team hack. Soon they regained the lead never to he headed. At the start of the second half a rain of Frankfort field goals put the game on ice. 34-20. Dr. Naismith, founder of basketball, presented the champions with their trophies and they returned home for a period of celebration. This brought to an end the best season ever gone through by a Frankfort team. The team deserved the title “state champions” and they will carry it through the next season. Plunkitt, Cummins, and Good were all state men; and some writers picked Spradling. This season’s schedule was the hardest ever gone through by a Frankfort team. Next season’s schedule is every bit as tough as this season’s was. Case will have Plunkitt. Spradling, Shultz, Toney, Behr, and Carman from this year’s squad as well as the line up of the undefeated second team. Also there will be Boots who was ineligible this year because of technicalities. All of Frankfort will be behind Case and his men and a winning team is expected.

The Sunday after the finals the hoys came home at 2:50 on the T. H. 1. E. traction car. The car was stopped in the middle of the block in front of the court house. The team with Coach Case and Manager Davis was taken up on the court house steps and introduced to the crowd. They were then put on the city fire truck and taken around and around the square. Bells were ringing. whistles tooting, horns blowing, and everything that made a noise was set into action. All through it all Fete” Good held on to the shield, not letting it out of his grasp for a single minute. All through this week the boys were guests to luncheons and suppers and banquets. Then came the official celebration by the Frankfort Chamber of Commerce. A huge banquet was set in the Community Building. Guests from all over the state were present. Everybody was introduced and some talks were made by celebrities. After the big feed all adjourned to the Howard Hall gym. Here everything was decorated in red, white, and blue. In the center of the hall hung a huge basketball. Ali those who did not attend the banquet sat on tlie bleachers around the playing floor. First the referees of the sectional, regional, and state were introduced. After these were the sport writers from all around the state. “Dutch’ Dobson, the world’s champion hand clapper, was introduced and he demonstrated his ability. Several coaches from schools who had lost out earlier in the struggle came next. The Kokomo. Martinsville. Michigantown. Mulberry. Mitchell, Rossville, Jefferson and many other teams were brought up before the crowd. Muncie, Washington, and Froebel wired that they could not afford the trip. The undefeated second team was brought up on the stage. Then came the state champions. After all the introducing was over, several little features were shown to the crowd. A few talks, a trio, a quartet, and the exhibition of two huge placards complimenting the boys were shown. The High School band also played. After everything was over, the big basketball opened and a huge American flag streamed out. Everybody then went home to forget about basketball for another year.

Mr. Davis. Second Team The season of ’24 and ’25 saw Frankfort represented by a second team, which was even greater than the wonderful team of the preceding season. This squad won every game it played. It was responsible for the wonderful record hung up by the varsity, for in scrimmage the team always put up a hard battle and was never beaten till the final whistle. No Seniors were members of this squad. Out of eighteen games played, not one was lost. Victories were scored over the first team of Day-ton, Advance, Forest, Stockwell Perry Central, and Thorntown. This made six first team scalps and twelve second team scalps on the belt of the hrank- fort Seconds. The Seconds scored 425 points to their opponents’ 229. The squad had many good forwards. Carman, a first team substitute, and Sagor were the two who got the call in most of the games. McCoy and Pearcy also did fine work and got into a number of games. Carman scored most of any of the forwards. Shultz, last year’s second team center, was hack on the job again this year. He was also a varsity substitute. He never lost a tip off and his long arms broke up many opponents’ plays. Hayes and Williams also got the call in many games. They also showed great promise.

TRACK Following the winning of the State Basket-ball Championship by his well coached team. Coach Case turned his attention towards developing a track team equally capable of maintaining Frankfort’s winning stride. Last spring, Coach Case took six local athletes to the State Meet at Indianapolis, these men having qualified by winning a first or second in their events in the Sectional. Robert Buck, Beecher Good, Marvin Good, Harold llolz, Wilbur Cummins and Ernest Johnson were the men qualifying, and M. Good. Buck. Holz and Johnson comprised the half mile relay team. At the state, M. Good qualified for the final race of the 220 yard low hurdles, but did not place in the final race. Buck placed second in the quarter mile. The relay team ran second to the fast Technical team, which set a new state record. This spring, Case opened the season with five letter men and a number of. good prospects for development. In previous years, the track teams were handicapped by not having a suitable track to practice on. This year, the quarter mile cinder track at the park was completed for use. While not yet comparable to a fast track, it will in future years, be one of the best and fastest high school tracks in the state. Logansport-Frankfort. With but two weeks practice the Blue and White athletes defeated Cliff Wells’ Logansport “tracksters” on the local track by a score of 56.4 to 41.6. Pettitt of Logansport was high point man with a total 19 2 5 THE CAULDRON of 16 points, which “Pete” Good followed close with 15 points. M. Good. B. Good. Alexander, Higgenbothani, E. Johnson. Sagor, A. Lucas. Plunkitt, Spradling. Crawford, Cummins and Coulter were point winners. Triangular Meet. For the third consecutive year, the Case trackmen carried off the honors in the annual Triangular Track Meet, scoring 38 points to Monticello’s 33 and Lebanon’s 28. The meet was held on the local track and Monticello competed in the place of Crawfordsville, who dropped out. Captain “Pete” Good led the scoring for the locals and was high point man of the meet, scoring three firsts for 15 points. Kincaid of Lebanon was second high point man, with 13 points. Frankfort’s mile relay team won. while the half mile relay team placed second. Point winners were M. Good. Alexander, Sagor, B. Good, E. Johnson, A. Lucas, Cummins and Coulter. Greencastle-Frankfort. Following the Triangular meet, the local trackmen again showed their well balanced strength by defeating “Slim” Bailsman’s Greencastle team by a score of 65 to 34. The Casemen scored six firsts and a majority of the second places. Alexander, M. Good, Sagor. B. Good, Spradling. Cummins. Crawford, Shultz, Hodge, Hayes, E. Johnson and Coulter accounted for points. Kokomo Relays. The mile relay team of Cummins. B. Good, Toney and Sagor placed third. “Pete Good pushed Clift of Technical so hard in the 120 yard high hurdles that he was forced to equal the State record for the event. In the 220 yard low hurdles, “Pete” was a close second, leading Clift, who placed third. C. I. H. S. Meet. The six school meet was held on the Wabash College track at Crawfordsville and was won by Lebanon, who led Frankfort by $y2 points. This victory breaks Noblesville’s string of nine consecutive victories in the C. I. H. S. meets. The scores ran: Lebanon, 35; Frankfort, 31l £; Noblesville, 24l 2, and Crawfordsville, 8. Delphi failed to score as did Tipton. After securing and holding a good lead, the local squad lost to Lebanon when Lebanon forged ahead by her strength in the field events, the local squad scoring but one point in the field. M. Good, Sagor, Hig-genbotham, Alexander. B. Good, A. Lucas, Spradling and Cummins were point winners. Kokomo District Kokomo again won the local district meet with 38 2-3 points, while Frankfort placed second with 18 points. Captain “Pete” Good, A. Lucas, and Sagor qualified to enter the state meet at Indianapolis, May 23. Good won both the high and low hurdles, running both races in close to state record time. A. Lucas placed second in the mile, and Sagor won second in the quarter mile. B. Good placed third in the half mile. “Pete” Good. Lucas, and Sagor won their “F” sweaters by qualifying for the state meet. Winners of “F’s were Cummins, Alexander, Lucas, Johnson, B. Good. Sagor. and M. Good. The Blue and White mile relay team was nosed out by Kokomo in a spectacular race. Kokomo won the relay by inches and the judges were forced to get together and decide the results after the race was finished. NINETY-ONE 19 2 5 THE CAULDRON Our New Home A restored high school building is promised to the city of Frankfort in the autumn of 1925. A virtually exact replica of the beautiful Norman stone edifice as it was externally before the fire of February 27. 1922. but completely modernized and equipped within as it then was not. is included in the promise. The restoration of this building to its original exterior appearance will be greeted with pleasure by the alumni, who. for nearly fifty years, felt clustered about its unique architecture and structure a group cf memories which a modern conventional building of brick would not help to perpetuate. The old building of 1892 resem- THOMAS F. SLIMP Custodian bled somewhat a stern feudal castle and in this day was reminiscent of a time when beauty as well as utility was a consideration in structures designed to serve the public need. The restored building will preserve to future generations of alumni an architectural tradition which is thus important for sentimental reasons. The work of excavating the ruins and renewing the walls was begun early in the spring of 1925. Consulting engineers and architects advised that the plan was feasible. Bids accordingly were advertised for and the contract let to John Paden, one of the most satisfactory and reliable of building contractors in the city of Frankfort. Immediately Mr. Paden set a force of men at work, and as this is being written, and with weather conditions thus far favorable, the skeleton walls resemble the activity of a bee-hive. Piles of sand and lumber, sacks of cement, stacks of brick, steel and iron rods galore, special shanties for tools, special pipelines. and other building accessories are strewn over adjacent territory in profusion. It will be good news to many that the tower will be restored. To those who wonder about the future growth of Frank-firt High School with a reference to the limitations of space in a replaced building of 1892, there is a three-fold answer: (1) Howard Hall will continue to house physical science and manual training; (2) the Central Building will continue to house the Junior High School; (3) an additional unit, exactly duplicating the regular high school, tower and all, can be built end to end on the east. This will provide ample space for needs of a century. The high school is to be ready for the fall term of 1925 if possible; if not, certainly by the midyear semester of 1925-26.

Last December she drove a herd of cows through their ice-covered barnyard, and there she saw a cow-slip. Their Billy-Goats broke into the barn and got into a barrel of sugar. Later she found a hunch of Sweet-Williams. Elder Coapstick—What arc you going to do about the Child Labor. Senator? Senator—Why do anything about it, the children can't vote.

If this ad appears across from the “Joke Page the joke is on the editors because we expected it there. If it doesn't appear there the joke is on us, so laugh, readers, laugh if we guessed wrong. Now laying all jokes aside, the members of the Spencer Store take this opportunity to congratulate this year s class of Graduates. As citizens we are proud of Frankfort High School. In competition the students have ranked high in both athletics and scholarship. Winners of the Triangular Debate. Indiana State Basketball Champions and winners of the 9th District Commercial Class Competition are a few things that come to mind as this ad is written. All these certainly speak well for the school. We again congratulate the graduates for having completed their High School course and wish them all successful futures. Say!

Then Dorothy Dick interrupts: The best one is the one for a pin: The best dresser in a women’s acquaintance, of remarkable penetration and true as steel, seldom loses its head, follows its own bent and carries its point in whatever it undertakes. We hear from Pierce Coapstick: Listen to this—a philanthropist is one who returns to the people publicly a small percentage of the wealth he steals from them privately. And lastly from John Cook: Well. I hear that an oath is a form of speech that has many trials in court, but is never tried in Sunday School. Purg Conley—If I do say it myself, I think I have a pretty good head on my shoulders. Mary Barnard—It’s not really beautiful; it’s the way you do your hair. Margaret Dow—I wonder how old Miss Steinbarger is? Ray Carman—Quite old. I imagine. They said she taught Caesar. Haven McClure—Senior girls are prettier than Senior boys. Coapstick—Naturally.

Just as he was going to shoot it. another one stepped out on the other side. He took careful aim and fired. His bullet hit the rock and split it in two and killed both foxes. The recoil knocked hint over backwards into a creek, and when he came up he had a beaver in one hand and a musk- rat in the other. All his pockets were filled so full of fish that a suspender button flew off and killed a bear.” Sonny (knocking at the door) Mamma, 1 am the hill collector. Now you run and hide.

Year by year they are growing in importance and number. They are growing, too, in beauty and character, so that many high school annuals now excel the books issued from colleges a few years ago. In this advancement we have had no small part. For more than twenty-five years we have been helping create representative annuals for schools thruout the middle west and south and thru our helpful co-operation have won a position of recognized leadership among annual engravers. Last year three of our annuals won four first and second prizes in state and national contests—a testimonial to our service of which we are proud. This is one of 154 annuals, published in eleven states, that bear the Indeeco imprint this year. Not content to rest on laurels won we have worked out plans to make our service to 1926 staffs more helpful than ever. Editors, business managers or faculty advisors are invited to write and give us opportunity to explain how Indeeco Service can help them publish the best annual they have ever had. Indianapolis Engraving Company 222 EAST OHIO STREET INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-FIVE THE CAULDRON 19 2 5 Individual Service WE KNOW that the School Annuals produced by us each season compare very favorably with those produced in the largest and best printing offices in the country. We limit the number of Annuals each year to the number we can produce carefully with particular attention to each of them. Your ideas are followed, the details are worked out with you, so that the Annual when finished, is a product of your class in every particular, and not your material rearranged and put through in a standardized manner. Our comparatively low overhead expense permits us to quote prices which are as low as any responsible printer’s, and our workmanship will produce a book of which you will be proud.
