L 9 l-ii--- I Q' 1 i - ,rv ,f i HISTORY OF THE NAME DRUMMER The staff of 1932 has based the theme of this annual upon the legends concerning the word Drummer , Our book, school, township, and nearby creek bear this name and, therefore, the word has considerable local importance. According to available stories it was a hunting dog who first had the name, Drummer , There are many tales concerning the dog. One runs as follows: The first settlers were hunters from Chicago who used several cabins in what is now the heart of Gibson City. One of these hunters possessed a very reliable hunting dog. One day the dog was missing. After searching several days they found it dead gi the,grove west of town. To honor this dog, the tract of land was called Drummer rove '. No one knows how far back Drummer takes its name, but we do know that the Drummer Grove Farm has been in the possession of the Foster family since 1858. The farm was so named at that early period. Mrs. Foster's knowledge concerning the history comes from Mr. Foster's grandfather, who in turn heard the story as told by Jonathan Cheney of Saybrook. Many hunters came here after deer. Among them was a hunter from Saybrook who owned his dog, Drummer . This hunter, as the tale goes, possessed a ferocious temper. In one of his violent moods, he sent the dog after the deer, and when the dog refused to go, he shot him. Afterwards, regret- ting the act, he named the grove Drummer , From Mrs. Fifer Bohrer we learn that her father, Mr. Fifer, who was formerly governor of Illinois, lived during the summer of 1867 with Mr. and Mrs. Jonathan Lott in an old box car in Drummer Grove. From her father, Mrs. Bohrer heard the following story: A hunter, in pursuit of deer, missed his aim and killed his faithful dog. He at once named the grove Drummer in memory of this trusted friend. In the Ford County Atlas of 1884 is another interesting story. It reads: Drummer Grove township was organized and set off from Patton township, Septem- ber 14, 1858, and comprised all of what is now the townships of Drummer, Dix, Sulli- vant and Peach Orchard, or all of Ford county lying west of range 9. The township took its name from the little grove called 'Drummer Grove' which lies about one-half mile northwest of Gibson City, and was named in honor of a noted hunting dog called Drumme1 '. The dog, which became overheated and died in a deer hunt, was buried in this grove. The only authentic history is that he was not a 'yaller dog'. In 1864, there must have been a congressional investigation, or something dis- covered derogatory to the character of the dog for a petition signed by a majority of voters of the township was presented to the board of supervisors asking that the name of the township be changed to Dix in honor of General Dix of New York. This was done, and the township was known by that name until 1869 when, upon petition presented to the board of supervisors, the territory comprised in towns 23 and south half of 24 north of range 4 east was set off from Dix and rechristened Drummer Grove thus dividing the honors equally between the dog and General Dix. In 1840 the name being found too long for practical convenience, the word grove was elimin- ated from the name by the supervisors. Although there are many different opinions concerning the death of the dog, Drummer, we are certain of a few facts. Drummer Grove was named in honor of this faithful dog. From this comes the name of the creek, the township-, the school, and finally the annual. In the ex libris we have attempted to poitray this history through a picture. The township represented by squares, while pictures of the dog, grove and school are shown. We are indebted to the following for much of our information: Mr. Wm. McKeever, Dri Wash, Mrs. Huxtable, Mrs. J. B.

They teach us from their knowledge, And together we have great fun. And now I'll try to tell you What each teaches from day to day. And as I go about it You'll find we've a fine array. Miss Barton and Miss Butterfield Teach us to talk just so. While Misses Augspurger and Thom- assen Tell us how figures go. Coach Strohecker and Mr. Getz Know much of science lore. Of History and Problems of Democracy Miss Nicholson has a store. Miss Rasmussen and Mr. Wyman At music are quite a hand. Miss Rasmussen directs the glee club. Wyman leads the band. The well-known Daney Andersen Trains boys to be carpenters. Miss Daily teaches all the girls Who wish to cook food like hers. 'Bout something of bookkeeping and shorthand, To know just how to type, Just go to the commercial department, There Miss Hogle will teach you aright. Anything about livestock or ag Mr. Lamoreux will be glad to tell. While Mr. Leighty can repeat you his- tory And economics remarkably well. If you wish to take French or Latin Miss Bayliss you should see. And if you study very hard A linguist you will be. . Loy's the superintendent Drummer Township High. He helps us keep our standards As the years go rolling' by. -Rena Knight, '33. Mr Of TO WASHINGTON The name of this man is remembered By people young and old: Although they have never seen him, Aboug him, I'm sure they've been to . He was one of the greatest of men Who has ever trodden this earthg The twenty-second of February Is the date of this great man's birth. He is said to have been a man Who would never tell a lieg I wonder how many of you can say this And truly mean it-not I. I am sure the students of Drummer High Will aree with what I have said, And honor this man as best as they can Who was once at our country's head. ,l..i.l.l-1-1 Ann W.-uSn00k hasn't been out for Jessie W.- Turned over a new leaf?

Mildred C.- Oh, I couldn't, Rayfield, not to-morrow, I have to take my music lesson at four. I J nixtea-n .Af AS A SENIOR SEES THE FACULTY The faculty I regard with deepest sighs With their gnashing teeth and glittering eyes, And as each day they tell my fate My feeling for them nearly turns to hate. Each day when I at school arrive I see them together trying to contrive Some new way to torture us all While one stands guard out in the hall. First comes English and after that Math. And what they say to me arouse-s my wrath, Third comes Law and then P. D. Boy! How those teachers glare at me. Then comes noon and a little peace 'Cause then for a while my troubles cease. But soon the bell rings and to Chemistry I go. And that completes my tale of woe. And here at the last, I want to add I hope this poem won't make the teach- ers feel bad Cause this gives 'em a reason to go up in the air But, no kiddin', teachers, I wrote it on a dare. -Donald Ayresman, '32, AS A FRESHMAN SEES THE FACULTY The faculty I do adoreg First of all comes the science hour, Each day I grow to love them more. To test those dull brains of ours, As each week so swiftly flies, Then comes Lating it's a rage I'm yearning for their approving eyes. Of conquering Caesar, the sage. Each day when I the schoolhouse reach, Next is Algebra, my! oh, my! Hopeful smiles I receive from each. I sit and gossip till the bell Wi sh I could overcome it, by and by If I could, then, oh boy, My life would be nothing but joy. Last comes Englishg how I adore The dear teacher waiting there at the Bids us all rush then pell-mell. door. Then home I go, once again, Wishing school would never end. -Anna Mae Barrow, '35, THE ASSEMBLY HALL A p-lace of study, a place of fun, A place to play when your work is done. Upon the wall many famous busts you see, Of people that should be examples to you and me. Also a faithful clock have we, That tells you where and where not to be. Upon the stage of the assembly hall, Is our motto ''Knowledge-Honor-Service to be seen by all. On one side of the room filling up space, Is a very large and extensive bookcase. Where students that have their lessons do often go To forget their studies and all of their woe. On the floor of this room and in the back Are a number of seats that ,do not students lack, On the whole a worthy assembly hall, we all do agree, For students and callers alike to see.

The faculty always stands ready to rescue us from the toils of snares into which we all fall at one time or another. Stern at one time, laughing at another, these individuals go through the routine of teaching us something useful that may prove a boon to us some day. Thus, too, with the Newfoundland dog. Ever kind, gentle and helpfulg ready at a moment's call to plunge into the treacherous yet calm appearing sea, and rescue unwary per- sons who have gotten into its clutches. Much have we to thank the faculty for, more than we can imagine until in the years of after life we come to appreciate their kind deliverance of us. viglitt-en - 1 I 1 1 X.-,X s X Z 5 Qtr ye?

William Swearing-en twenty-six f x ' -11 THE CLASS PRCDPHECY l The crouching tiger rolled his eyes and lashed his tail furiously. The coast seem- ing clear, he lowered his tail and quietly walked into the room. His imagination sud- denly deflated and he was again a grinning Cheshire cat. His favorite chair was unoccupied except for the daily Enterprise . This tabloid did not constitute suffi- cient restraint to keep him from his beloved haven. He ascended amidst a rustle o paper. That dodgasted cat, I wish he would learn to stay where he belongs. The hero of- this epistle plonderously arose, prepared himself to inject the cat into the next room. HIS massive toe was in the act of descending when his eye was caught by a headline in the Enterprise It continued to descend but its failure to contact with the cat brought no disappointment to our hero, for all his attention was so centered on the newspaper. Mal shouted Reginald Phelps-Kenney, Listen to this-'Ball Wins on Indianap- olis Speedway. H. A. Ball, Jr., racing demon, speeds to victory at Indianapolis, win- ning over a field of fifteen. Makes the fastest five hundred miles ever done on this track.' You know, I was talking to him just two weeks ago and he seemed to think he would win. He was with his manager, Lamar Jordan. I had quite a talk with them and they were telling me they were backed by the 'Chicago Tribune' of which Jim Burnham is the sports editor. He is quite enthusiastic about the race and I un- derstand he has bet heavily upon them to win. There was an article in the 'Tribune' by the promoter of the race, John Mooney. He has become quite a famous promoter and is the Tex Rickard of auto racing. A slight pause ensued while Mr. Phelps-Kenney thumbed through the paper. Well, well, he said in a rather surprised tone. Here is a cartoon by Gerald Ander- son, he gets one in the paper occasionally. It shows a man motoring through a desert and running into a palm tree thinking it a mirage. That boy is certainly clever. And ma, we must go to see that show that's coming to town next week. It is that great comedy, 'The Ghost and the Gout', co-starring Dick Noble and Ann Wheeler. They are acclaimed the greatest comedy team since Laurel and Hardy. On the stage Mona Hamm, the tragedienne, is featured in a short play with her entire company. Don't let me forget to get tickets and we might stop in at Rhodes and Gray's. They have the biggest chain of night clubs in the city. I think that is the best place to get an after theatre lunch. Further perusal of the paper brought more surprising news. I see, he continued, that the renowned football pro, Bud Jones, is suing the milk man for tearing up his flower beds as he delivers milk. He has hired Wm. S. Middleton of the firm of Mid- dleton and Midkiff, attorneys-at-lawv, to prosecute. Mr. Phelps-Kenney settled down in his easy chair. This was indeed an interesting paper. Did you see this ad on the third page, advertising the new Sunbeam, manufactured by Clifford McGuire, having the exclusive feature of a reversible body? They are only five ninety-five for the most expensive model. They are really the only full sized car able to compare in price with the Ford and Chevrolet-which reminds me that we will be needing a new car before long. Kenney Neal, p-resident of the Ninth National Bank, was comparing his new Hispano-Suiza to our old Mercede-s. He can afford a good car like that, but if these bosses of mine, Henry Caspers and Arthur Charlson, were able to do any business I might be able to buy one, too, but I guess not for a whileg the brokers, such as they are, are not doing much. Here is a picture of the Easter parade, and it shows Gladys Kaiser and Elma Berk- ler, high school teachers, as the best dressed in the parade. After reading his newspaper for a few minutes longer he discovered another item of interest. Martin Mooney and John Summers have just completed their plans for a trip around the world in their own invention, the convertible dirigible. They expect to take only three days which will equal the record made by Von Eckner in 1939. It will be necessary to make only one stop. Suddenly a crash revenberated through the house followed by a shrill scream. - .Ii QiIPf tu Ill X 'Il UQ-' i , 17 I I Reginald, oh Reginald, run out and get the cat before it tracks up the flower bed and pick up that flower pot that the cat knocked over. I'm.gonna give that cat cyanide of potassium some day, mumbled the man, struggling to his feet. He walked out of the house to get the cat and discovered his neighbor, Kenneth Karr, sitting on his porch smoking his Corona Corona. Nice weather we're having, Mr. Phelps-Kenney hailed his friend stooping over to pick up the miscreant. Yes, it is, answered Kenneth, stepping off the porch. A short conversation ensued, the outcome of it being that a game of checkers was arranged. Bring your wife along and she can visit with my wife. I'll do that, answered Kenneth. Thus it was that half an hour later, the front room was filled with cigar smoke and a pleasant atmosphere of home life. How are the stores in your district making out? I hope that you are not having any more trouble. No, answered Kenney, I think everything is running smoothly and we are doing more business now than we ever have in the history of our chain. You know, said Mrs. Karr, I think I shall get a permanent wave at one of the Venus beauty shops. They are so reasonable that I don't see how they manage to keep all the shops going. Yes, answere-d Mrs. Phelps-Kenney, Saxon Wheeler and Jessie Weaver cer- tainly do have heads for business. I am sure they would not operate if they were not making money. The topic of conversation drifted to athletics. I lost about ten dollars last winter on the Taylor Trunks, said Mr. Karr, when they were defeated at Christmas time, but it was the only game they lost all season. Since Evelyn Arens has been with 71 them they have won most of them. I am going to bet my money on the Cubs this year, stated Mr. Phelps-Kenney. With that layout they've got, and a manager like Shamel Moore they ought to take the pennant. What do you think about Rayfield Hecht's chances for the middle weight boxing championship, next year? Mr. Karr asked. I think he will just about take it as he didn't seem to have much trouble getting up to the place that he is. By Jove! exclaimed Mr. Phelps-Kenney, looking at his watch, It's time to tune in and listen to Ted Worms Orchestra at the Triagon Ball Room. That is my favorite orchestra now that he has Ray Blissard for his trumpet player and Francis Zimmer- man on the saxophone. I hear they are going to play for that new Ziegfield comedy, 'Hotcha'. I think I will see this when I go to Chicago next month and I'd like to sec Lew Leslies 'Black Diamonds' starring Maxine Johnson. It has been creating quite a sensation, I understand, at the Apollo. The Chicago Civic Opera Company interests me more than those do, said Mr. Karr. I should like to hear Dorothy Jane Guy as she sings in the opera 'Traumerei'. That reminds me, she is going to broadcast on C. B. S. at nine-thirty next Saturday evening. A discussion followed concerning their favorite radio stars, but they were disturbed by the ringing of the doorbell. Mr. Phelps-Kenney arose, went to the door, and came back bearing a small card. Your Fuller brush man will return in a few days, he read, and presents you with his compliments in the form of a hand brush. Your Fuller agent is Orlo Staufferf' By the way, I think we need an auto brush. The hairs were coming out of the old one the last time I washed the car. You might get a new one while he is here. I need a dust mop, too, answered his wife. You might tell him to stop over at our house when he is in the neighborhood, said Mrs. Karr, I should like to see some of his brushes. The clock struck ten-thirty, and Mr. and Mrs. Karr arose to leave. I have to gn to Guthrie in the morning, said Mr. Karr, and I want to get a little sleep to-night. I expect we had better leave now. They exchanged farewells, and the visitors left. By Jove! said Mr. Phelps-Kenney, I meant to tell him to listen in on some N. B. L.: C, 5-figs-.+R-1.- tw'-nty-1-ifzht ,' Q ,455 - '17 ,I C. station next Friday evening at seven-thirty to hear Dick Warfield give his talk on stock. Since he has become owner of the biggest dairy farm in this part of the coun- try N. B. C. has had him give talks once a week. 'fl almost forgot, said Mrs. Phelps-Kenney, that I want to listen to Margaret Wr1ght's 'advice to the fbroken hearted', quarter hour, too. I sent in a letter asking what I should do if I suddenly discovered that my boy friend was a speed maniac- not meaning you, by the way-you're afraid to drive over twenty-five miles an hour. The last remark got under Mr. Phelps-Kenney's skin, for he grumblingly went to bed.. The nextmornlng he was in little better humor. He nearly stripped the gears of his car starting to work. He went down the street at the astounding rate of forty miles per hour. When he heard the shrill scream of a siren, he saw a motor cop wav- ing him to the curb. Where's the fire? snapped the cop in the proverbial manner of traffic cops. I should have known better, mumbled Mr. Phelps-Kenney. But it really was not so bad as he thought. Well, well, it is my old friend Mr. Phelps-Kenney, said the cop who turned out to be Wallace Suter. What are you doing in such a hurry? I never knew you to drive over twenty miles an hour. I am afraid I will have to give you a ticket though, be- cause an officer was standing on the corner with me when you went past. He sent me after you. It won't matter much because the judge is our old friend Walter Ricks. He will probably let you off, since this is your first offense. I am certainly glad of that, said Mr. Phelps-Kenney, emitting a sigh of relief. I was worried for a few minutes. Wallace nodded to Mr. Phelps-Kenney and went on his way. It was only a block to the p-olice station so that was the first place that Mr. Phelps- Kenney went. He no sooner entered the door than he brushed up against Gordon Bane, chief of the detective squad. His cigar, of course, was not lit, but he seemed to enjoy chewing it. They exchanged a few words of greeting and Mr. Phelps-Kenney told Bubbles of his plight. The detective offered to go in with his friend and see if he could help him. They entered the court room and had to wait a few minutes as there was already a case before the judge. A western rancher had accused a man of stealing his automobile while he was visiting in Gibson City. On closer inspection he found the rancher to be Fred Gilmore. It was not long before he was through, said Mr. Phelps-Kenney later to his wife, and I shook hands with Fred and proceeded to see what Walter Ricks, the judge, could do for me. I settled with Mr. Ricks and I was just leaving when the court reporter for the 'Enterprise' tapped me on the shoulder. I turned around and was face to face with Katherine Thomas. After some persuasion I managed to get her to keep still about my plight and so now I do not have to worry about being betrayed by the 'Enter- pr1se'. I brought you a present. I was waited on personally by Leona Ogg, who owns the jewelry shop in conjunction with Evelyn Bratcher. I was ably assisted in picking out an inexpensive present, so that I went on my way whistling. I finally got to my office and found that my private secretary, Minnette Green, was already there. This was unusual for she is usually late. I asked her if I had had any callers or any letters. She told me that the civil engineer, Donald Ayresman, who had just finished bridging Drummer Creek had phoned for an appointment and would be in some time during the afternoon. Opening my mail I found a letter from Lizzie Borchers., the librarian in the public library, asking for a donation for the sup- I2-ort of this institution. This was customary and every business man in town gave some kind of a subscription. I put this aside for my secretary to take care of. I had hardly taken up the day's work when I was called to the telephone by some- one calling my attention to a political meeting to be held in the high school gym that evening. The speakers were to be our congressman, Robert McMahon, and Dorothy Hanson, a state senator from our district. Bob McMahon was the one who fostered the latest tax reform bill. Just as I was putting on my hat to leave for lunch a gentleman entered my office and sat down in an easy chair. This wasn't unusual, for every noon Charles Lane ra tive-nty-nlne I 1 , arf' came in and waited until I was ready to have lunch. We took the elevator down and went around the corner to the grill. l+I1oviv,are you coming along with 'Fleet St.'? I should think it just about half finis e . ' I,hope this will be a best seller like my last one. I could use a little money now. ' When Mr. Phelps-Kenney went back to the office after lunch, he found a note telling him to report to his chief immediately. He informed him that he was to be in charge of selecting an electric sign for the tcp of the building. He found what he wanted in one of Nagle's catalogues. Nagle's was the biggest sign manufacturing company in Gibson. It was started by Jack Nagle years before and had been worked into a prosperous business. Since he knew Jack personally he went to call on him at his office but found that it was empty. He repaired to Jack's house and was met at the door by a nurse. She seemed vaguely familiar to Mr. Phelps-Kenney but it was not until she started speak- ing that he recognized her as being Geraldine Reiners. Oh, is someone sick? he asked, a little taken back. Another nurse walked up and tapped Geraldine on the shoulder. Mrs. Nagle wants you, she said. This second nurse was Helen Rider. He decided to postpone his visit until a more propitious time. On his way to his office he stopped in at the Hasker Wright Dry Goods Co. , the biggest dry goods chain in Central Illinois, to get a spool of thread for his wife. He met Hasker on the first floor and told him about Jack's wife. He went on his way and stopped at Mabel Christiansen's Floral Shoppe to send a bouquet to Mrs. Nagle. When he finally went home for supper, he found that his wife had company. Cath- crine Carden, County Superintendent of schools, had stopped in to spend the week- end. This was quite a surprise but not an unpleasant one. They had a very pleasant supper. Our program, said Catherine, was quite a success. Elva Witt gave a wonderful talk on the business world. You know, I suppose, that she is acclaimed the most successful business woman in the city. Louise Kerchenfaut, debate instructress at Purdue, gave a talk on the value of debating and public speaking. Bonnie Schwartz, manufacturer of the 'Bonnie Bon Bons' in Dubuque, also gave a talk on the making of candy. The program was concluded by Elsie Rae McMahon, the statistician. who talked on the possibility of higher prices in general for next year. I think that we sh She was interrupted by a feline yowl. The crash of breaking glass reverberated through the house. Reginald! Go get that cat before it gets into a fight with that cat next door. The hero arose and left without saying a word, but when he was outside one could see the deep, dark, ruddy gore in his eye and hear him mumble something about cyanide of potassium. 0NE'S BEST FRIEND When a person is feeling blue. Whom can he tell his troubles to? Who will listen and sympathize, Not with false words but with his eyes? His dog! Then if the master wants to play, To run and frolic and be gay, Of all his friends under the sun, He knows that he can count on one- His dog!

Jordan, '32. - or a riifeaqeeflai as-'lie H. thirty f Q ,QQ -17 THE CLASS WILL The ruins of a wall loomed dimly ahead through the greenish translucence. Tkars Tkarkas nimbly made his way toward the object of his interest. The physical peculiar- ities of our hitherto unknown ancestor will become more plausible when we realize that forgotten eons have passed and miles of thick green water cover what is now North America. It seems evolution had sacrificed the horizontal for the vertical, the result being a strange distortion of spindly arms and legs, and narrow body. His fingers and toes were webbed. Scraggly eyebrows of a high forehead hung to pro- tect his protruding eyes. Up-on examination Tkars found that he had discovered another of what his people had come to call cities of the ancients. Being an ardent student of such archeo- logical curiosities his interest was more than aroused. His wandering led him to the edge of the ruins. He entered one ofthe better preserved structures where all walls remained fairly intact. The room seemed alive with all kinds of sea life and it was with great difficulty that Tkars made his way to a crumbling vault. Near the top was a small aperture into which he put his hand. After groping about for a minute in the darkness of the vault he found a piece of parchment on which were faded, scarcely legible characters. After a careful scrutiny he translated the document as follows: Realizing the ephemeral existence of the spoken word, we, the class of 1932, in order to give the record! of our bequests a greater degree of immortality, place them upon this parchment. fThus:J I, LaMar Jordan, bequeath my happy-go-lucky view upon life to Tom Riley and my superior intelligence to my brother, Jack. I, Shamel Moore, leave my perseverance in athletics to my brother, John, and my sincerity to Eugene Swearingen. I, Elsie Rae McMahon, will my scholastic ability to Gertrude Harder and my Scotch dialect to Earl McKinney. I, Lizzie Borchers, willingly present my willingness to do those little, unostentatious tasks with a smile to Lucille Anderson and my loyal support as a righteous leader to Lucille Shellman. I, Bud Jones, bestow my adaptiveness in athletics upon Russell Salyards and my suc- cess in Haffaires l'amour to Herschel Pruitt. I, Ann Wheeler, donate my popularity with the boys to Josephine Miller and my genial hospitality to Alice Plough. I, Junior Ball, pass down my way with the women to Franklin Little and my ability to drive a Chevrolet to Robert Summers. I, Donald Ayresman, bequeath my friendship with Hasker Wright to no one and my scholastic standing to Carroll Worley. I, Evelyn Arens, deliver my ability to play basketball to Virgie Robinson and my friendliness to Lillian Huxtable.

REFLECTIONS OF A SENIOR Perhaps life is like a great white Road that is bounded on Either side by silver poplars And flowers And restful grass, And after so long The road makes a Graceful curve to the right, And thence onward The way is even more Beautiful: Although the incline Makes it a little more Difficult to travel. Our lives have been like This, and graduation is the Curve and our Life from then on is The rest of the road- The road that will probably Have many curves But fefw will be more Momentous than Graduation. -Charles Lane, '32. 'TIS T00 TOUGH Miss B.- Why aren't you busy? Can't you find something to do? Henry C.- Gee whizz! Do I have to look for work and do it, too? - 4 or 1 Ho thirty-three QQ'-, i .. il 7 11 LES DISPOSITIONS BEAUCOUP Her moods are many. They come and go as one season fades into another. Dark ones that bring an atmosphere of dreary gray, Dark ones that tint her silvery dreams a dismal blue, Bright ones like the newlysborn tips of green in infant spring, Bright ones like sunlight seen through glittering prisms, Sometimes a feeling of supreme happiness, almost maddening, Piercing one's being like the sudden plunge of a rapier, Creating a savage longing for endless Life. Then,-soothingly, conteintmentg An infinite calm of hidden depth, Like the constant rolling of the eternal sea Moving on. And the slow wings of Time, Fold caressingly together, A silent cloak enveloping a soul of moods. -Maxine Johnson, '32. THE DEPRESSION I've heard vague rumors about a depression In fact, it's quite a popular expression. What has caused conditions to be so? To answer frankly, I simply don't know. The price of spinach and of corn Are viewed with concern on every morn, Rhubarb's down and so is U. S. steel, Many are wondering where they'll get another meal. It's a tough old world, my dear, But it will never be better by a tear, So laugh and be happy and gay For there are more pleasant things to say than the Depression -E. Rae McMahon, '32. LEST WE FORGET---WASHINGTON Let us stop a minute and cease from our task While we pause for awhile and pay homage to his name, To a great man whose name in the limelight does bask, That leader who started our country to fame, Lest we forget the value of his deeds. It's been two centuries since he first saw the light of day, That faithful boy who wouldn't tell a lie. He was strong in purpose in his own modest way, We should give him a thought and not pass him by L-est we forget his immortal deieds. His soul has passed on but his memory will ever linger. He was a soldier, a statesman, a man of the hour. A figure in history who is easy to remember. We should think of him again when tempted in war, Lest we forget his awe inspiring deeds. -Walter Ricks, '32.

Bert would rather have more sleep, Then the dusting has to be done, But he must start out the day And Bert does it on the run. If he expects to receive his pay. Bert with his broom is always in sight For he works. from morn 'til late at night. Bert is the- janitor of Drummer High And She memory of his name will never re. -Woodrow Barnes, '32 WAR O terrible creature of our universe! Wilt thou not depart forever to thy land? In peace and happiness allow this eager band Of men, to live, and fear not of thy curse. Nay! Do not judge by battle-loving people, so diverse-, Who fairly ache for battle hand in handg But think with those who, educated, understand. Be fair and suffer thy reverse! O! Such a brutish specimen of hate! Who gloats and laughs at dead and dying men, Turn back! Surrender to thy fate! And to thy brother falthough mortall man extend, Safety and life, democracy of state, To his eternal joy and peace unbend. -J. J. Burnham, '32 HEROISM Hark! Qny friends, and you shall hear, The funniest story you've heard in a year: It was a sultry day in the fall When all Miss Bar-ton's bees swarmed out of the wall. Through the windows they all came, But Miss Barton was not to blame. She readily seized her little gun , And shot them all down, one by one. -George Davis, '32 - CULPRITS Dusk wraps the village in its dim caress, And all its citizens are collecting a well-earned rest, When out of the dim west from afar Eleven braves sped to put the enemy's goal-posts ajar. It was great sport while it lasted, But by the enemy they were sightedg They thought the joke very funny Until the cop said, Fork over the money . -Shamel Moore, '32 - .l3 QflF4 thirty-five - ..-.L--LJ ..-..- 'Q OON we seniors must march forth into the battle of life with all its trials and tribulations, strifes and conflicts to he e I do or die. The graduate must not work for himself but should offer a helping hand to all those who need it. A res- cuer is worth two of a person who works alone. Besides sav- ing one life, he makes his own a little more enlightened, up- lifted, thus soothing his soul with a loving kindness. The police dog must portray truly the best characteristics of what a true senior of D. T. H. S. should show. We must stop in the battle of life even as a life-saving police dog to give to the suffering person a draught from our own experi- ences which are worth more, after all is said and done, than all the book learning in the world! 3 E? ii-'tif R. tlll i fff 1 ff ,J f - V, L 5 5?

An air of contentment marks all of their actions, whether they be great or small. They have come to the age in their school life where somewhat of a transition has taken place, not enough to make serious, grave- eyed individuals of them. They are as jolly as romping collies, at play, with seldom a show of temper. The characteristics of the juniors are well shown in the noble collie. Such a calm, tranquil look rests on his face but yet in the corners of his twinkling eyes there slum- hers a look which spells good humor, kindliness and fun.

Curiosity is one of the principal characteristics which distinguishes them from the verdant freshmen and the jolly juniors. Liveliness and huoyancy mark them as they romp through the halls in quest of some mis- chief. The animated terrier in the cartoon truly typifies the spirit of the sophomore. The expression on his face shows an in- terest in all things alive on this earth. The leaps and hounds of the guileless puppy show a certain feeling of gay ahandon- ment which seems ever to follow the fluttering, elusive, butter- fly of fun. rar-grfeflmiwe forty-Your f ,f ,f' 0 ,,.-A ' .

They, some day, must be the senior class, that honor which comes but once in a lifetime. Are they qualified for it? That is the question. The freshmen must stand up under all the tests put to them hy the older classes. They are always up for inspection as the cartoon suggests. What trembling must go on in the heart of that little, shy, inquisitive pup as he realizes that he some day will get to look others over as they now examine him! Will the freshman be found qualified for the honors that are to he heaped on him in years to come? We, the upper classmen, think that there will not be a more worthy group to fill our places three years from now. 1. J R. f ly lglt H ,,,,,,,, R, 5 . - 1 A f , Q - ,-,.

We found, in our selection, that those best suited for the position were a senior, a junior, and a sophomore, namely, Dick Noble, Mabel Beach, and Ellen Bradford. lt was their duty to lead we exuberant students in good, healthy, rousing cheers for our teams. Dick is a new member on the pep squad this year. This honor has always been one of his aspirations, but was not fulfilled until this year. Cheer leading to Mabel is an old game, she being an old hand at it. This is her second year on the squad and a very successful year it has been, as far as cheering' g ies. Ellen, the little sophomore, cuts a neat figure as she leads with all her might. ller able hands draw our voices right out of our throats whether we want to yell or not. llue to several sad occurrences it was impossible to have many shines after the games, although it is not that the student body did not deserve them. The main thing the pep squad attempts to do is to gain the hearty co-operation of the students and to eo-ordinate their enthusiasm with the athletic endeavors of the favored few titans who struggle with their opponents on the field of contest. 'fo this end the cheer leaders worked and this year their efforts were rewarded with success. flfly 'J - 1? Z1 K p Y I 1 THE FOOTBALL TEAM They go from strength to strength. --4Psalms. 3d Ro w: E.

The team had to be built around five lettermen-Capt. Jones, Blissard, Swearingen, McGuire and Barrow. Although not as successful as last year it was a very good season, considering the experience and size of the men. Five games were won, four lost and one tied. For the first time in ten years Drummer defeated their old rival, Paxton, twice this year. The football banquet was held in the cafeteria December 9, 1931. Seventeen men received letters.

The principal of an exclusive girls' school is expecting an important addition to her faculty, Sir Hector Fish, a distinguished young' scientist, who is bringing with him the recently discovered mummy of King '1'ut's queen. Sir Hector arrives in a most unconventional fashion-inside the mummy case, in which he has had himself expressed, so as to escape being quarantined in New York for a well-developed case oi' mumps. His identity is discovered and kept secret by the cleverest girl pupil in the school, partly to save him from arrest for breaking quarantine and partly be- cause there is another Sir Hector in the field, impersonating him. The complications multiply, and one farcical situation crowds closely upon another, each more uproar- iously funny than its predecessor. The hilarity is also promoted by the inimitable man-of-all-work, who has three men's work to do but doesn't do itg by Brisky, the giddy youth who impersonates Sir Hector, and by his equally giddy pal, Billg by the prize flumbdora of the schoolg by a terribly nosey girl reporterg and by a hiek sheriff.

THE JUNIOR PLAY Come, sit dofwn, every mother's son, and rehearse. - Midsummer Night's Dream. SECOND CHILDHOOD A professor and his scientific pupil attempt to discover tl1e elixir of youth. Their experiments with an old dog convince them that they have discovered the elixir. They axe elated and at once seek a human being for experimentation. An old general is in love with the professor's daughter, but she refuses him because of his age. The scientists induce him to try the elixir. But during their absence, the general spills the elixir and abruptly leaves the house. A poor woman, unable to support her baby, now enters and leaves her child on the sofa where the general was last seen sitting. The scientists return and find the empty bottle and the child. The general has ap- parently becorne an infant. The scientists are wildly enthusiastic and prepare to ad- vertise their wonderful discovery. But upon consulting a lawyer, they find that, be- cause of giving the elixir, they may be charged with numerous crimes, including mur- der and kidnapping. But at this point the professor's daughter, who is taking care of a neighbor's baby, comes into possession of a bottle of the elixir. She suddenly dis- appears, leaving the empty bottle and the baby behind. The scientists are sure that the daughter has been transformed. The ghosts of the two lovers return in wedding czstumc to haunt the scientists, who, when not taking care of the babies, spend their time dodging the family, the police, and their irate neighbors. Only the return of the general and the professor's daughter clears up the mystery.

The cast in- cluded over three hundred pupils, seventy of whom had speaking parts, while the rest were employed in crowds of Revolutionary soldiers and townspeople or in choruses and dances. The performance was a splendid instance of co-operation, for the students and faculties of both schools worked harmoniously and in three weeks put on a smoothly running production. All costumes and stage settings were in keeping with the colo- nial periodg in fact, accuracy of historical detail was observed throughout. While some outfits were rented and a few borrowed, most of the Revolutionary clothes were designed and made locally in the schools. The pageant consisted of a series of episodes in Washington's life, played upon the regular stage and bound together by prologues upon a fore-stage erected for the oc- casion. These prologues represented abstractions, such as Victory and Defeat with their respective followers, and the civic virtues, which introduced the episodes and united them in a connected whole. Upon the outer stage, Young America called for a leader to guide and protect her land. The curtains drawn back revealed a scene in the Pennsylvania woods, where George Washington at twenty-one carried an embassy to the French. It was evi- dent even then that his men were looking to their young captain as the- logical leader in the impending war. I Following the scene of Washington's marriage to Martha Custis, the graceful minuet was danced with the stately movement of the eighteenth century. Then came years of happiness at Mount Vernon for the Virginia colonel, until in April, 1775, the first flag of the Revolution was unfurled to the tune of stirring colonial songs and the martial music of fife and drum. Thinking only of serving his country, George Washington took command of the Continental army and at the evacuation of Boston gained a glorious victory without bloodshed. With the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, the American Colonies be- came an independent nation, and Washington the leader of a revolt against his mother country. Through the dark hours of war, he guided his men courageously. At Val- ley Forge, with his soldiers starving, freezing, and buried in unmarked graves, he knelt in the bloodstained snow and prayed that his country might not go down in defeat. This prayer was answered by the coming of France and the surrender of Cornwallis at Yorktown. A second time, Washington's peaceful life at Mount Vernon was interrupted by his country's call. For eight years, he conducted affairs of state, placed the govern- ment upon a firm basis, and made the United States a nation respected in Europe. In 1799, the Dark Angel visited Mount Vernon, and George Washington became a memory which his countrymen are honoring even today. As the twentieth century audience, pausing to commemorate- the two-hundredth birthday of the First American , witnessed the impressive panorama of his life, surely they felt the urge to follow the principles for which he stood-the ideals of responsibility, loyalty, service, brotherhood-and with Washington to pray that our country, struggling now not in war but amid plenty, should not go down to defeat. I 9 R sixty-three .i -16,5 1 - 17 l I r RAMATICS is a subtle art. I say art, for really it is an art. Remember how the long nights of practice before the show is produced are filled with the toils of the em- bryo actors attempting to learn how to walk across the stage, to exit, to enter and to gain a multitude of other accomplish- ments necessary to this art. There are many properties used by the future Barrymores such as paint and powder boxes. These help to make the player look his part and keep up the atmosphere. On the big night a rush and a bustle mark the make-up room where powder and paint fly thick and fast. The last thing that happens before the curtain rises, is seeing if the make-up is on straight. Therefore, I say paint and powder are truly representative of dramatics. :J it qrmfaw iff' X 5 I 4,1311- v!U, Q, F -fi . f- J: W? - flkxyi' ,, ' .. - ..fi -' I A - - J' I J.- .V,, - .

Sixty-seven ' 1. 0 .61 ,.,- THE SCHOOL BAND In unison their various tones to tune. -Smith. The band, which is made up of about thirty-five students from both Drummer and the grade school, has been organized for about two and a half years. This year Mr. Wyman is the band leader. In the former part of this year they elected their officers. The following were chosen: Francis Zimmerman, president: Jack Jordan, secretary and treasurerg Wal- lace Suter, librariang Billy Anderson, vice-presidentg Evan Dozier, business manager. In rainy or fair weather the band was always seen and heard on the Drummer football field when our boys tested their ability with that of other teams. The band gave a cheery appearance arrayed in their Maroon and White uniforms and kept up the spirit of both spectators and players by tooting' away the faithful march, The Columbian , and many others on that dreary misty day when the Drummer boys bat- tled with the Paxton eleven. The assembly was entertained several times by the band. They made their second appearance in uniform this year when the curtains were opened by the strains of a peppy march at the Farmer's Institute. Then came the Music Festival which the band and glee club gave. Next came the District Contest which was held in the Drummer Gym. So let us not forget our band but regard it with due respect. The personnel is as follows: Cornets-W. Suter W. S. Middleton R. Borchers E. Bradford R. McDonald M. Carroll J. Suter Clifford Orr J. Burns Clarincts-J. Hunter J. Starks J. Swanson J. Jordan C.

There is a certain charm in gentle voices molded together in perfect harmony. Even the person with no musical sense whatsoever must sooner or later admit that even he finds loveliness in rhythm. Also there are few animals that can resist the power of music. Think of the dancing bears, ele- phants, and horses, and how they love the beautiful strains of a waltz. Least of all can a dog resist music. For hours they will sit and listen to it but if a discord is struck the most terri- ble wailing follows, because they know music. T IS said that music charmeth the soul. ls this not true? a I . . -4 1.: I mgil-4 t. --i.i..,i v - r ..- fa l-4 g f Bnlfvi i l .CSF 'w V I I .1 fd wwf 'lie ,,L..., A ,' Jiffy V .5 -ff 4 Q x ff' .

I'm going to tell you about it so That who did what and which you'll know. Bill Middleton the editor is he. Kenny Neal assists him, you'll see They plan their work without ado In order to present this book to you Snooks, Zimmy and Hank Ball Go to see the merchants all. The business staff are these three, They do all their work without fee. The literary editor is Elsie Rae. Louise does help her in every way. Leona Ogg' and Margaret Wright Have looked for jokes far into the night. Ellen, Marjorie, Homer and Dick con- tribute the art, Which in this book plays an important part. Chronology and alumni are needed, too. Jessie and Catherine bring' past events to view. At noons William and Ann Take all the snaps they can. Lizzie, Mona and Minnette Green Are three good typists, as we've seen. Miss Augspurger is the faculty adviser. We surely couldn't wish for one wiser. Now, I've shown you what each has to do To make an attractive book for you.

Then, Did you see the show last night? - What did you get in history? -cl'1atter, chatter. chatter- Elsie Rae, write a head for this 'Mikado' story, will you? - Say, who put this in the Joliolcgy? Hasn't it been in before? - Is the ad. copy all in? -at last come the final proof sheets- the page proofs- This isn't the way you spell 'Hatteberg' -click,click, as the lino- type flashes- All right, Mr. Woolley, put it to bed. Have the papers up to school be- fore the eighth hour. --and the staff gets ready to do it all over again. Although the depression forced reductions in size and price of the 1931-32 .edition of the Maroon and White , there was no reduction in the number of subscriptions, workers, or enthusiasm. Its policy of printing the news, of giving experience in writ ing and in business, and of being a moving force in the life of the school continues. 1 a 1-e seventy-four ' s f fkgl' - 'I7 If THE STUDENT COUNCIL Arranging for season tickets for basketball, reinstating a flag squad, promoting a Christmas assembly program and providing milk for the needy are some of the things the student council has done this year. In all of our meetings and discussions we have always tried to have as our under- lying principle the promotion of co-operation and understanding among the students themselves and between the students and the faculty. On behalf of the members of the council and myself, I want to thank the student body and the faculty for the degree of co-operation they have given us. We are convinced that the role which a student council may play in a school organ- ization is a real and helpful one. May each succeeding year find Drummer with a better and more up-to-the-minute student council. Charles Lane, President. THE PARLENIAN CLUB When the Parlenian Clurb was organized at the beginning of the year the following officers were elected: President .... Elsie Rae McMahon Secretary . . . . .Louise Kerchenfaut Treasurer .. ......, Helen Starks Sponsor ......,...................,... Mr. Leighty This is an entirely voluntary organization and no credit is given toward ex-curricu- lar D's . The purpose of the organization is three-fold: 1-To encourage and train in the art of debating. 2-To give instruction and experience in parliamentary procedure. 3-To prepare for Drummer's future debate teams. Among the programs presented by the club have been after-dinner speeches, a debate on Resolved: that the man should hold the family pockctbook, extempora- neou speeches, and a divorce trial. - THE NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY The three members that remain on the National Honor Society from last year are: William Swearingen, Mona Hamm, and Lizzie Borchers. To these have been added those chosen this year who are as follows: Elsie Rae McMahon, Charles Lane, Richard Noble, Louise Kerchenfaut, Richard Warfield, and Elva Witt of the seniors with Margaret Johnson and Paul Pinkley of the Juniors. These people have lived up to the ideals of Drummer in a commendable way. We hope that the outside world will find them equally constructive citizens. ivveqrfegamsl? In , .hu 3 4.11 ,11 l l '1 UBLICATIONS are the life of scholastic institutions. The hubbub that resounds through the portals of our assem bly hall as the bi-weekly issue of the Maroon and White is distributed shows its popularity. Eagerly the student grasps the sheets to learn of any news that may concern him. The Annual too has its popularity as shown by the rush to the bookkeeping room at the end of the year. For several days following these the school is in one uproar, with scholars rushing here and there at all times getting autographs, and passing comments upon the various themes and pictures of the book. Much do the publications add to the life of the school. Swift once said, Books are the children of the brain. Think of how much school spirit would remain if no publications were issued. Little enough remains now but if no Maroon and White and no Annual were published think of the many students that would never learn of the events taking place around them. So we say, long live the publications! -D A 2 irish? tyl , I, f f, I ff I ffxq K- v I w w 4 1' , 1 .1 1' I in n il.. I i-,Y 1 xy 1 1 . -.. ,. ,L 1 . - ..,l., 'n' , ' .

Wee. ee tes' ----D1- esac eighty-two E el 1.11 ' x 5 I ,Qt -gl A SENIOR'S DIARY SEPTEMBER 3. I'm atwit and agog! I'm registered. A rest until Thursday. 8. Classes started to-day. My kid brother came over to me and I helped him a lot. I'm busy constantly showing him around. I can remember when I was in the same shoes-can't you? 111. Cheer leaders elected. Buh-lieve me, they really find the ones to fill this p ace. 15. They herded us into different rooms to-day and we elected class officers. All was over before I realized it. 16. The team loaded up into the Ford and bumped up to LeRoy for first game. They brought victory back with them, 14-0. Hope they keep up the good work. 18. II tried every p-art possible for The Mummy and the Mumps , but I know it is hope ess. Oh, well, maybe it would take too much time, anyway. That's some consolation. 19. Senior rings selected. I can hardly wait to see them. 25. Rantoul on the field. What a defeat! 19-0. 29. I hope the teachers get enough to eat tonight at their annual picnic. OCTOBER 2. Shucks-Onarga won, 18-0. That isn't right. 3. Magazine contest begins. Seniors and sophs versus juniors and freshies. Sen- iors and sophs will win-just see if 1 ain't right. 10. Drummer won from Momence, 14-7-and ain't that sumphin? 12. What did I tell you. Seniors and sophs did win. My, what a rush down stairs. My, but hot lunches taste good for a change. Um! Um! 13. Parlenian Club organized. Not a bad idea at that! 15. Those poor twelve kids who took an injection for diphtheria! 22. Now ain't that nice? We tied Gilman, 6 to 6. 28. Wesleyan gives musical program. It was certainly good! I loved it! NOVEMBER 2. Student Council organizes. We will be good now, ahem! 6. Of all the meetings-Annual Staff has one. One thing different with this one -I attended. 10. Doctor Kirby gives us talk on health. I wonder if We learned anything new. Never kill a dog when he bites you. 11. Another time out-Armistice Day! We had a big program, sponsored by Student Council. Paxton came over to see us. We won the game, 7 to 0. A profit- able vacation. 12. I'm glad I didn't have to have my picture taken in with the groups to-day as I just washed my hair. Shine held on Drummer Field. Can you guess who sang? Jimmy, of course. 15. Richard Warfield goes to Kansas City to attend an Agriculture Convention. My, what a future farmer he will make. 19. Shucks, Farmer City won, 25 to 0. That's a cryin' shame. 20. Ah, ha! Vacation-teachers went to a convention. 24. Going home for Thanksgiving! Gee! I've plenty to tell the home folks. 26. Thanksgiving Day-went over to Paxton and brought back with us victory, , L. iarfgrgamifw eighty-three 13 to I 1 ,Q sir 5 1 7, due to Shamel Moore's catching a pass in the last minute of playg he should get an extra piece of turkey for that. 30. Back to the books for the next stretch. Oh, well, it isn't long till Christmas. DECEMBER 3. F. F. A. has their banquet in the cafeteria and a good time was had by all. Three cheers for the farmers. 4. We had our first basketball game to-night with the boys from Fisher and it looks good for Drummer. Chalk up the first victory. 9. The football banquet was to-night. There wasn't any captain elected for next year. Bud, of course, was there and said they served in regular football style, with quarters 'n' everything. 11. L-ost-Dwight 21, Drummer 18. Too bad, too bad. 12. Of all the banquets! Maroon and White banquet. I guess they'll have to have a banquet special for me if I ever get to go to any. 17. party. 2,3. to 24 25. 31. 1. 2. Here's something else that passed by me-Parlenian Club has a Christmas Vacation again, but not for basketball players. 'Played Saybrook and won, 8 Rah! Rah! Merry Christmas! Hope Santa remembers everyone. Of all the games! Urbana 31, Drummer 30. JANUARY Happy New Year. Ho, hum! Back to work again, but I don't think there was a lot accomplished. Everybody had to tell everybody else what they did during the holidays. Pete John- son got the niftiest green sweater from Santa. 5. 6. 8. 11. 13. to 14. 18. 19. week. 20. study Mr. Loy gives us out some advice to start the new Year right. Won from Melvin! 16 to 22--good work, fellows! Another victory! Our biggest game! Paxton 13, Drummer 14! Busy! Busy! Is the annual staff! My, my! Words can't express it. Laugh! My sides hurt! Faculty played Managers, 24 to 19. But we lost Fairbury 26 to 10. My, how insignificant high school kids are to-day--Farmers Institute. Mr. Loy went east to attend the funeral of his father. Excuse me, while I take a pause and line up the text books. Exams this Boy, howdy-how I hate 'em. Still time out! Thank hebben I've only one exam to-morrow. Home to P. D. for me. 21. They're almost over-and what a grand and g-1-l-orious feelin'! 22. That English exam would simply slay ya! Never have I seen such a set of questions. 25. Now a new stretch. Start a new slate. We have four new students. 27. Fisher! Fisher! Drummer won from them, 24-26, and ain't that sumphin'? 28. The Mikado given. My, but I had a thrill! FEBRUARY 1. Just another of those pepless Mondays. Everyone is rather pale and wan after the week-end. 4, 5, 6. Tournament! Rah! Rah! Drummer won third place. Great sport, this basketball season. 7. Everyone dragged around school to-day-half awake. Tournaments are too strenuous, I guess. Good thing they don't happen too often. 19. Hot dogs, we came out on top again! Paxton got what they came for. The score was 13 to 25. We really have some players, don't we? 26. Do you realize this is Washington's Bicentennial? Well, I did. We put on a pageant. It went over big. LJ Q E eighty-four :Q .hu - 17' MARCH 2. Started the month out right. Bert , or someone, has invented a three minute bell. That means we have to be at work in three minutes. 9, 10, 11. Tournament! Drummer didn't shine so well, although it did win one game. Pretty good, anyway. Eh! 14. This is blue Monday for me. I had too much week-end, I guess. One can get too many thrills. 17. Fireman's Ball! I was too scared to go, I guess. 18. Freshman paper out. The one I voted as best looking won. I'm always lucky enough to get my vote. 21. Everybody sick. Classes down to a half as many. I guess it's the flu. 22. Absent! I was! 25. Lots of visitors. Easter vacation caused this, I suppose. 27. Best Easter Wishes. 30. Basketball season's over. This is what's next-Wrestling. My how the boys work and fight to win. APRIL 1. April Fool's Day and what a bunch of old gags and saws I bit on! Music Festival! Representation of all seasons. Very colorful! 8. Patrons' Night-Papa and Mama came to school instead of my brother and me. Visited teachers' rooms and saw the teachers as their children see them day by day in their respective rooms. 11. Gee, but that was a ride! The commercial contest bumped off in an old Chevy truck to Fisher. Results weren't so bad! Beat by half point. 14. Too bad things spread so! Miss Nicholson found out that making garden is not always a safe excuse, because the garden was made without the parents knowing anything about it. 15. What a play! Second Childhood . Wish that elixir of youth would always hold true! It's all right if you don't drink the whole bottle. 16. Band Contest! 20. Pillows! They're handy 6th hour. Bubbles thinks so, anyway. 21. Robbed the safe-no one to blame! 23. Music ringing in my ears! Contest at Normal! Oh, yes, the commercial kids went to Gilman! MAY 2. One more week to recuperate and we're off again. 13. Reception!

After all, it is the loyal alumni who keep the school running. Who is it who are out in attendance at all the athletic con- tests, who offer their aid to the coaches? Who is it that are always hanging around the halls during their vacations? lt is the loyal alumni. Quick to condemn, quick to praise, always ready to help as best they can, ever wishing that they could be back for awhile to see if old life is the same as it was during their regime.

They have dogs for the classes, For glee clubs and band, And dogs for athletics, dramatics and then- We have dogs for the faculty, For football and basketballg It's a doggy annual but that's not all. We have cute little puppies for the freshmen, Who always wear a questioning look. And year-old doggies for the sophomores Who won't dare glance at a book. l Then we have three-year dogs for the juniors, Who no longe-r are apprentices in their work. And intelligent professional seniors Who from their duties and burdens ne'er shirk. We have a dog for dramatics in a dramatic pose, A rouging his cheeks and daubing his noseg Dogs for athletics with looks on their faces, Of strong determination to take first placesg They have chosen a dog for our leaders- The truest type dog of them all, And why shouldn't it be for the teachers, For without them Drummer would fall. M. M. Miller. L. ROSY THORNS I was creeping along, easily and monkey-like, on the long iron rail. Once or twice I looked below, but I only shuddered and scrambled on. Once! Twice! I nearly fell, but regained my balance and crawled on. I dared not look down again for fear I would fall. I felt as if my heart might leap out of my throat and fly away at any moment. I did not take time to notice the gang of boys, who were standing around poking fun at me. On and on I crept, now slipping, now swaying, and then crawling ahead again. - .lareegregfumifi-e eighty-eight I 1 ,055 - fv ,1 While I had been so busy making my way along the pipe, I had noticed some beauti- ful rose bushes below me. This caused me to feel better, because it afforded a soft, all point landing if I should slip. Swish! I was falling. I made no great effort to regain my hold, for I remembered the rose bushes. Ouch! Help! They're sticking me. And sure enough, the ever-loved thorn bushes, under that deceiving shield of roses, were doing their part in punishing me. The next moment I heard a mocking laughter, and from one of the ruffians came such soothing words as Roses are red, violets are blue, thorns are dangerous, and often hurt you. It might have been a seemingly helpful piece of advice, but it was just a second too late to serve its purpose. Well! I guess I'm only a miserable inhabitant of the wise guy and thorn bush age.

And the trees are loaded down, Along come you robins, And gobble up every cherry that is found. As far as singing counts, Well! I guess you can't be beat. But when you come around and eat my cherries, Well, I'd like to have you under my feet. Now listen, robins, to what I have to say. There's no one that likes cherries better'n me. So if you robins want to live long and be happy You'd better stay out of my cherry tree. Herschel Pruitt, '35. MY PILLOW My pillow lies all day long, It is thrown all over the place. With never a word or a song, Sometime-s it gets torn, even the lace. Either on my bed or a sofa, My pillow even lies on the floor, Where sometimes I kinda' lofa'. And also gets thrown through the door The life of my pillow is gone But its memory will linger on. So no longer will I lay my head On my little pillow, cause it's dead. Ruby Troyer, '34, THE.

As I sat astride the animal my heart felt heavy for the poor beast seemed in acute pain. I sympathized with him and let him keep a pace suitable to himself alone. I was determined I should ride at least two miles that afternoon although my means of locomotion and transportation was slow! My destination was a clump of woods along the Sangamon River. This spot was a wonderful place so I began to hurry Romeo, my horse, along, until in my expectation of seeing a beautiful place I had him at a pace somewhere between a trot and a walk. This was luck! However, my luck did not last for the girth broke and the inexperienced young traveler found herself seated in the dust. I finally got the saddle pieced together and continued on my way. When I finally reached the woods I was deeply thrilled by the beauty I saw before me. On either side grew trees of every height and every kind found in the state. The- underbrush made it seem like a real forest and as I particularly love the idea of jungles, I was pleased. In the middle of this primeval forest trickled a rather large stream. As I followed it, it began to grow deeper until it became at least twenty feet deep. Here indeed was luxury! I took off my shoes and thrust my toes into the blinking water. When my toes touched the surface I gave a sigh of bliss and leaned back against a tree trunk. My bliss was shortlived for I had reckoned without Romeo. Such an impossible horse I have never seen and hope I shall never see again. It is a great blessing to me that there is no Humane Society in this section. If there was I should be in prison for cruelty to dumb animals. Romeo had broken his bridle because he had become frightened and he would not allow me to fix it. Up and down, from side to side he jerked his head until tears of vexation rolled down my cheeks! When at last I did get the bridle on his mulish head I was ready, indeed, to start for my home. As I turned my animal's head toward home he threw so much dust behind him that I could look back and see it settling about half a mile away. Such was our speed. This pace was not kept for long. The animal was not so dumb as it seemed. It settled down to a slow pace. Due to the hot sun my rage reached the boiling point but to no avail, for Romeo plodded on regardless of lashings and angry words. As I neared the gateway of our drive I prayed that I would have power enough to get to bed before I fainted. I did go to bed and the next day-well, I wondered how Paul Revere felt after his famous ride! Wilma L. Bedel, '34, AMERICAN HISTORY In history class, the pupils sat Each felt alert and wide awake A As though turned to immobile stone. Ready to grasp each small detail.

I AWAIT MY TURN IN THE DENTIST'S CHAIR It was four o'clock when I walked into Dr. Potts' waiting room with a tooth that had to come out . There were about fifteen people awaiting their turn. I had come to his office because the sign on the door said that he was a painless dentist and I wanted to get my tooth out with as little pain as possible. After glancing around the waiting room and seeing many swelled jaws and band- aged up heads, I sat down to read a magazine. I was sitting quietly reading when I heard a groan. I looked around and saw no one in the waiting room had done it. I knew that it must have come from the treatment room. I had begun to wonder whether he was as painless as his sign said when the door to the inner room opened and a man, looking as if he had been run through a wringer, came out. I asked him what was wrong and he said that he had had a tooth pulled and that he thought L: 1.3 :mist-e. ninety I Q DEA' 1 -lv l that it would be a miracle if he didn't pass out before night. A question came up in my mind whether I would look or feel like that when I came out of his office. ' Another person went in and I again sat down to read, very nervous. In about five minutes I heard someone scream shrilly. This time I knew that it had come from the inner room. That was too much. I got up and walked out softly. As I walked home slowly, I told myself that I would wait until I could have my tooth extracted really painlessly. Donald Bowers, '35. WANTED-A DOG I tell you I'm blue and it's not a bit funny. I don't want a beau, and I don't need money. A lodge in the hills, and a villa on the beach Are not only silly, but out of my reach. Gowns I don't need, nor motor cars either. In expensive parties I'm not a believer. No, what I want, and I won't give up, Is a sweet, little, square-jawed, wire-haired pup, Who will love me and trust me, and be my friend Then to my happiness there'l1 ne'er be an end. QA member of Drummenj A SUNRISE Far off in the east a pale tinge of pink was gradually becoming brighter as it seemed to draw nearer. Steadily it grew in size and brilliancy as the whole eastern sky was flushed with wonderful, glowing, life-giving light. As the sun's rays became more direct they glanced from the earth's surface to set fire to the tops of the trees. Trees, which but a moment before seemed so dull and lifeless, were now glowing like the ruddy cheeks of a healthy child. While I sat watching the sunrise a lone traveler hurried up the road, but as the sun climbed a little higher he ceased to walk so rapidly and seemed to pause in order that he, too, might enjoy this spectacle. Swiftly now the sun rose, melting the frost, casting strange and beautiful shadows, and calling sleeping beauties from their rest. The east now began to change from a glowing ruddy, formless light, to a yellow more brilliant than burnished gold. As the sun took on a more definite form it became harder and harder to gaze directly upon, but to turn and see its effect in the west was even more pleasing. The whole western sky was transformed into a brilliant, flashing sapphire. With the dark trees looming up in such a background, nature presented a picture which no artist could paint. As I reflected upon this scene I wondered that although this very thing had hap- pened every day of my life I had never observed it closely. I realized then that I had been missing one of the most beautiful things in life. Another fact that made me wonder was, that every minute of the day the sun was rising for someone else, thus making two very beautiful scenes for two different persons in two far separated countries at the same time. La Mar Jordan, '32. . DOG'S TAILS Have you ever noticed the different kinds of dogs' tails? One is short and stubby, while another is a little longer and sticks up stiff as a stick, still another is long and gracefulg a third curves up over the back of the dog and waves like a plume. Our dog's tail is shap-ed like a corkscrew and looks like a rosette. It is the only tail of this kind that I have ever seen, so I think our dog has something to be proud of. In my opinion the subject of dogs' tails would be worth your interest. James Cameron, 35.

LJ 5-ii ninety-one ' Q I - .1 'f .165 I A MAN'S TRAVELS IN EUROPE I awoke at four o'clock one SUMMER'S morning when I was on my trip through Germany and HOLLAND. As the beautiful horizon was growing lighter, I walked out on deck to take a few deep breaths of air and to watch the sun rise over the far stretching GRAY HILLS. As soon as the red BALL was fairly up I went into the cabin and had a HAMM sandwich to refresh myself after the long KNIGHT. This seemed to be only a SAMPLE and I immediate-ly called for MOORE. The sky had changed while I was inside, and it looked as if a BLISSARD' was about to approach, but it soon wore away and the sun shone down on the warm sands of the BEACH. The sun was so bright that it reminded me of some of the past SUM- MERS I had spent at home a few years ago. I had lost my RASOR so I had to be excused from shaving that morning. I went on shore where I saw a funny looking GUY with a LITTLE BROWN eyed boy in a GREEN suit. I asked him if he knew where I could get a KARR to the BURNHAM Hotel. He said that the RHODES were so bad that I had better take the LANE to the WRIGHT until I was past the land intended for PLOUGHing. I came to a large BUSH covered patch where a MILLER was building a new house. Although he was an old man he was rather SQPRY and I find that he MEANS what he says. He said he didn't want to HARM me but that he didn't intend to be bothered with strangers. I traveled on a little farther and saw a SMITH working and singing an old Christmas CARROLL. I went to the TAYLOR to have a pair of my trousers fixed but he said I would have to go to the WEAVER. That afternoon we played BALL a LITTLE while and then went out to the BARNES to go FOX hunting. I wasn't a very good RIDER but I had a good time riding over the HILLS and DALES. My face had a few BURNS from the strong wind we were facing. That afternoon I met a YOUNG LITTLE girl without much WITT, but plenty of good looks. I thought she was just the girl for me if I could SUTER. I wanted to get acquainted and WHEELER around in my KARR, but I thought HECHT! when I didn't get the chance. My journey through HOLLAND was over and I was leaving for other European countries. I had always wanted to see the land of the JORDAN, but my ship was sailing directly to the famous WARFIELDS which the NOBLE KAISER had made.

Built upon the best and the soundest principles possible to obtain from the fertile minds of the world's greatest statesmen. Those men are passing into an age where they will no longer be useful. Their work is done and they have retired. More men and women will take their places and they must come from the young people of to-day. It is now, in our school days, that we should receive our respect and admiration of the American flag. We should learn to place that flag above all, follow it in hard- ships and in fair sailing. The nation will one of these days depend upon the young people to settle the pressing problems of state. The youth of the country will no doubt settle the great financial disturbances that so greatly concern us to-day. The flag of the United States has been waving over Drummer for a great many years and past that flag pole have walked some of the future directors of this na- tion's destinies. That red, white and blue banner so simple in color and design, but so great in meaning should instill in the heart of every American the true sense of patriotism. With the young people rests the fate of a democracy. If the youth stands America stands. If the youth falls America falls. They will crumble into the sands of time not from destruction from without but from decay from within. Thus the flag of the country and our school shall run concurrently and not sepa- rately. Sam Midkiff, '32. My teacher said poetry for to-day. I don't like to have her address me that way. But just to show her I am gay, I'll just start writing right away.

I lifted my broom to let him pass and then got him a glass of water. He sat directly in front of the water faucet, a fact which makes this story possible. He ordered a waffle, but it was apfpiarent that his mind was brooding on some past and probably unpleasant incident. It was necessary to mix the batter before any waffles could be dispensed, so, not having mastered this gentle art, I called the boss. Since I was momentarily free from all duty except that of waiting for the waffle, I did as is my habit when I have noth- ing to do, but am trying to conceal this state of affairs, I drank a glass of water. I now began to notice the man closely. As I said, he was directly in front of the water faucet, so it was natural that he should attract my attention. My mind imme- diatgly stopped calling him the man , but adopted the title of the victim in its stea . If I were to paint a portait of this person, I should unfailingly name it A Victim of Circumstancef' It was not his clothes. He wore a dark, well-tailored suit with a tie that displayed good taste. His overcoat and muffler blended with the suit and tie to make a har- mony of color attained only by artists in flares of inspiration. It must have been his eyes. They were well set in a handsome, intelligent face, but were full of the dumb misery one sees in the eyes of a faithful dog who has been scolded. It seemed as if he were an innocent babe whose eyes had been shown some of the world's vices, but hated to part with the beautiful ideals they had formed. P1iobably a girl , I thought. This became evident as he began to talk slowly to himse f. But I'll always love her, he said. He mumbled a few words to himself. Then he turned to me and said with much tenderness and deliberation, She was so beau- tiful. At least I'll always have the memory of her adoring face to sooth the tattered remnants of my heart. I incoherently muttered something about A thing of beauty-- , but I real- ized that anything I said would only serve to draw his poetic mind from his fantasy. His waffle was now ready, so I resumed my sweeping. I finished one side of the restaurant and was back to the door when a heavy set gentleman, whom I recognized as a guard from the state institution, entered. He walked over to the victim and tapped him on the shoulder. You're wanted on the phone, Theophilusf' he said. The victim half turned in his seat and blinked uncomprehendingly several times. Then he looked at the guard again and, nodding his head slowly as if assenting to something, he muttered under his breath. Oh, yes! Yes! Of course! I-Ie arose slowly and walked to the front, his head raised, his eyes turned upward as if in meditation. A smile flickered across his lips. In his flight of fancy he was probably rescuing her of the adoring face from a dragon. I lifted my broom to let him pass. He opened the door and walked out. Dick Noble, '32.

Whether that is true or not, the expression on your face is certainly a dead give-away of your sentiments. For instance, did you ever idly observe students in the between-classes rush? Certainly you have, but did you ever note particularly the expression each carries on his face? No? Then let's stand here in the corridor while classes are passing out and read what's written clearly on some students' faces. Here comes a boy down the stairs wearing a dazed, bewildered look. We'll guess that his beliefs in some serious economic problem have been shattered into three thousand pieces and as yet he doesn't understand the teacher's explanation. He looks a little hurt, too. We'll surmise that he was feeling quite proud of himself for having worked out the solution and it was quite a blow to his intelligence to have his answer incorrect. Down the opposite steps comes a girl carrying a green book and with an absolute- ly irate expression. I'll bet she wishes her algebra text and the classroom were mil- lions of miles away for no doubt she has been miserably confused in solving: if 2x equal 3a plus 2 b minus cg what does x equal? How shall we interpret the expression on this boy's face? It suggests mingled fear and a sensing of impending doom. Now he wishes he had studied diligently his American history instead of reading a Western Story Magazine all fourth hour. One girl seems positively happy! We wonder if she made only two errors on her typing paper or if she has a well prepared lesson for her next class. As she's the studious type we'll say both. Here's another student with joy written on his face very plainly. Has he just had a good recitation? Perhaps that's true, but wait, do you see the small white piece of paper he's carrying in his hand? Now we've hit the nail. His best girl has just written him a note and everything's all patched up between them. Now watch this girl in the blue dress coming out of the assembly. Her face beams anticipation. It's easy to see she's anxious to attend her next class for she's been studying industriously the past forty minutes. Teachers' expressions also tell tales. Notice faculty adviser of the junior class hastening to that junior boy. Her expression intimates that she thinks the juniors never, never will bring their report cards back promptly. In some of your sp-are moments study the faces of your fellow classmates. You may be wrong in some of your translations, but maybe your victim is just trying to fool the public.

This is a true experience, not my own, but I shall tell it as if it were. The story deals largely with a collie. dog, named Rover. He was an intelligent dog, as most collies are, and very well trained. He had been taught many tricks before I got him. One, however, that I taught him, was to go to the butcher, scratch on the door or bark until he was given a piece of meat or a bone. The butcher and Rover were good friends and Rover got many more and better pieces of meat than the aver- age dog would get. One evening in winter, about five o'clock, I was sitting in the house reading a book. Rover, who always stayed in the house with the family, came in to me and looked into my face inquiringly. I knew that he wanted to go out of doors and take a run or two around the house. I opened the door and let him out. Then I resumed my reading, because I knew he would scratch on the door when he wanted in. In about fifteen minutes, he raced up the porch steps and scratched frantically on the door. I opened it and he dashed in and jumped up against me, uttering short sharp barks of excitement. Then he turned and ran out again. Seeing that I didn't move, he came back and repeated the procedure. It was clear that he wanted me to accom- pany him. I donned a coat and followed. He raced down the street about a block and returned to me several times before I reached the place where he always stopped. He nosed into some bushes and then came out, looking at me anxiously and wagging his tail vigorously. I peered into the bushes and heard a lo-w whine. There was an- other dog, just a pug, with a long, deep wound in his hip. It attempted to rise but sank back with a soft whine of pain. I stooped and picked him up and carried him home, while Rover romped about my legs all the way. I put the pup in Rover's ken- nel in the basement and vwent to look for some bandages and antiseptics to put on his wound. While I hunted for them, Rover left again. Just as I finished bandaging the leg, Rover scratched at the door again. I opened it and he marched in with a large pie-ce of meat in his mouth. Straight to the kennel he went and laid the meat directly in front of the pup's jaws. Then he sat quietly watching the meat disappear, not once offering to touch it. When I gave Rover his supper, he promptly carried it to the kennel, too, but the pup would not eat it so Rover devoured it himself. That night Rover crept into the kennel beside the pup and slept with him all night. For many days the pup was unable to walk, and all that time, Rover carried him food at every meal before he ate his own. Finally when the wound was well healed, they played together hours at a time. I don't think I have ever seen them apart since the first day after the wound healed. Several years have passed since that time and now both dogs are dead, but I don't think I ever saw anyone with more intelligence or responsibility than Rover showed in caring for the pup which he found.

T. H. S. with the class of 1926, the staff is indebted for the following literature and for the jokes and other bits of material on dogs used throughout the annual. For several years Mrs. Crowe has been an assistant to Dr. Adams of Cm- cinnati, Ohio, who conducts a dog hospital, publishes the Dog News , and broad- casts on the subject weekly. SENATOR VEST'S TRIBUTE T0 A DOG The best friend a man has in the world may turn against him and become his enemy. The one absolutely unselfish friend that a man can have in this selfish world, the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous, is his dog. A man's dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness. He will sleep on the cold ground, where the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he may be near his master's side. If misfortune drives the master forth an out- cast in the world, friendless and homeless, the faithful dog' asks no higher privilege than that of accompanying him to guard against danger, to fight against his enemies. J. Gilbert writes: From the dawn of primal history the dog has loomed large in the art and literature of the world. In metal and in stone his noble image has been perpetuated, but the dog's chief monume-nt is in the heart of his friend, 'man'. We find in astrology the dog star is 'the brightest star in the heavensg the Alpha of the constellation Canis Major , and in Greek mythology Cerberus is the- watchdog at the entrance to the infernal regions. Diana, the goddess, had her deer hounds, and literature is enriched by the story of Odysseus's dog Argos. Masters of the brush have pictured the dog on canvas everlasting, among them Landseer, Blake, Tracy, and Andrea del Sarto. The last named painted 'Tobias accompanied by the Angel Raphael'. Lord Byron has engraven on a marble shaft this tribute to his dog: Near this spot is deposited the remains of one who possessed beauty without vanity, strength without insolence, courage without ferocity, and all the virtues of man without his vices. This praise, which would be but meaningless flattery, if inscribed over human ashes, is but a just tribute to the memory of Boatswain, a dog, who was born in Newfoundland, 1803. When a dutiful ox dies, no epitaph is writ, rather he is flayed for the parsimonious tanner. When a mule goes the way of all flesh, no mound is reared, serviceable though his years have been. When a lambkin lies still and stark on the trencher, even the poet who was wont to rhyme on the pretty innocent will regale himself with one of its chops. But when a certain little creature, having a bark at one end and a bit of tail at the other, with a flea or two between, takes leave for the isles of the blest, the lords of earth look foolish while their ladies weep, and humanity feels a tug at the heart. Professor William Lyon Phelps, of Yale, says that his dog, Rufus H. Phelps, is the most literary deg in the world. Rufus has been elected to the Yale Pundits, a literary society, and boasts also of membership in six Michigan country clubs. This interesting dog, according to his master, has been stroked by Joseph Conrad, petted by Hugh Walpole, caressed by G. K. Chesterton, ernbraced by George W. Russell, A. E., patted by St. John Ervine, and kissed by John Galsworthy. Even George Bernard Shaw has honored him. In lighter mood, Professor Phelps says of Rufus: All his books are dog-ear-ed and he himself composes a great deal of doggcrel. He reads constantly in Matthew Arnold, especially liking the book 'Literature and Dogma,' and he himself is a dogmatic philosopher of sorts. He has a complete set of Shakes- peare. which he bought dog-cheap. His favorite character is Hamlet, because, as he says, Hamlet was a Great Dane. T0 MY DOG BLANCO My dear dumb friend, low lying there, Ah, Blanco! Did I worship God A willing vassal at my feet-- As truly as you worship me, Glad partner of my home and fare, Or follow where my Master trod, My shadow in the street,- With your humility- Did I sit fondly at His feet, As you, dear Blanco, sit at mine, And watch Him with a love as sweet, My life would grow divine. -Josiah Gilbert Holland. 1 1 riifgwm--if If-e ninety-seven f x ,ag - gv ,f I'VE GOT A DOG I've got a dog.

Some people are wise enough to know that a dog has no soul. These will find ample theme for mirth in our foolish inscription. But no one who knew Lad will laugh at it. -Albert Payson Terhune. Who loves me loves my dog is a French proverb of the thirteenth century, and in substance has figured in the literature of men writers, including St. Bernard of Clairvoux and Erasmus. Poets great and small, their pens inspired by the Olympic maid, have paid tribute to the dog. Lord Byron, who was devoted to his Boatswain , wrote of him: But the poor dog, in life the firmest friend, The first to welcome, foremost to defend, Whose honest heart is still his master's own, Who labors, fights, lives, breathes for him alone. And again: 'Tis sweet to hear the watch dog's honest bark Bay deep mouthed welcome as we draw ne-ar home. The great bard of Avon, in his Julius Caesar , makes his Brutus say: I had rather be a dog and bay the moon, than such a Roman. Stephen O. Foster, the author of so many beautiful southern melodies, wrote thus of Old Dog Tray : Old dog Tray's ever faithful, Grief cannot drive him away. He is gentle, he is kind- I shall never find A better friend than old dog Tray. Some 3000 years before Christ, Socrates wrote: When I see some men, I love my dog the more. Baron Curvier considered the dog the most complete, the most singular and the most useful conquest man has gained in the animal world. Relics of dogs were found among the ruins of Herculaneum beside the forms of Roman sentries. In the late World War the dog shared the dangers of his soldier- master in flood and trench. ..-.-...LJ :E-'EE R- ninety-eight .gy - vt'5l'G'Nl O JOKES Q usgglhqgwl QUESTIONS 1.

A family moved from the city to the suburbs and were told that they ought to get a watch dog, to guard the premises at night. So they bought the largest dog that was for sale in the kennels of a nearby dealer. Shortly afterwards the house was entered by burglars, who made a good haul while the dog slept. The householder went to the dealer and told him about it. Well, what you need now, he said, is a little dog to wake up the big dog. - Pittsburgh Chronicle Telegraph.

He'll be all right as soon as I get that tap-eworm out of him. Jake- You'd better leave that tape-worm alone. It's the only thing that keeps your dog from falling apart. But why did you buy a dachshund for the children? So they can all pet him at once. Alka Poney, Bar Harbor, Me. When our dog lies down to sleep I notice that he shivers and shimmys all over the place.

HANDY VET The chief Constable of a small town was also an expert veterinary surgeon. One night the phone rang, and the constable's wife answered it.

Mr. Carl Calvin, a graduate of the University of Illinois, talked on the agri- cultural conditions of Haiti, where he had lived several years. He illustrated his talk with picture slides which made it very interesting. On March 19, 1932, the Future Farmers grain and egg show combined with a rural school judging contest. This was the Club's first attempt in anything of this sort. A new banner has been bought by the boys and placed in the ag. room. It has a blue background with the F. F. A. insignis in gold in the center. The Club is thoroughly enjoyed by all the members and is very active in even the athletics. It has organized basketball and baseball teams. The primary purpose of this Club is to show the importance of agriculture as an industry, and to help the boys make successful farmers.

An Interesting Photo of Bygone Days 'Way back in 1926 a wandering photographer unlimbered his camera long enough to snap this tableau of the fifth and sixth grade boys. Most of them bought pictures, took them home, and promptly lost them. One person, however, managed to preserve his against the ravages of time and thus it was that Robert Christiansen uncovered this memoir, dusted it off, and handed it to the annual staff. In placing it upon this page, we wish to preserve it indefinitely. When this masterpiece of the photographic art was brought to light, the staff greet- ed it with groans and laughs. We wrnder how many hearts have been broken by these gallant youths, how many baseball games have been won, and how many exams have been passed or flunked. But seriously, juniors and seniors, do you realize how many things have happened since then? Some of the group are gone, many remain. Names have been forgotteng faces, too. But, nevertheless, happy memories remain concerning these care-free days of childhood. C. Means- What's your worst sin? M. Miller- My vanity. I spend hours before a mirror admiring my beauty. 111-eg:f-5435+-e nm- humirwl seven I Q j7 ,r .-L-e7n,.- .Y. , ri- lglh kllf Qveeh, -IQIEQEE4 one h und red Dick and his dog are a jovial pair, This shepherd one named Collie- Toward her he always plays fair- For his pet is constantly full of folly. Ching's the dog' for a country boy- He helps you on the- farm. He'll watch the sheep or drive the cows, Or act as the night alarm. As Jack knelt down on the soft green grass And Peggy stood by his side, He saw a look in the little dog's eyes A longing she could not hide. It was a cold December day, And Queen came to Lina's house to stay, She became her pal and Lina felt sad When poor Queen had passed away. Sheik is a dog for a city boy, He's just the dog for me- He's a husky dog, a pretty dog, And smart as you can see.

I loved my old Jack, Even though he was a hound, I'll never forget those younger As we used to romp around. days Marjorie likes a dog on her lap, Just as well as does Dick, And from the looks of this small snap Don will ne'er receive a lick.

Now where could you find a better pair- Don makes a hit with all the girls- She with the retty long hair, And he with his nice brown curls. What a thrilling pair they do make! Al seems to like his blonde, Milly, But their love was merely a fake, For now all her love goes to Willy. Isn't it too bad for what happened to them? If it hadn't been for that city dude And courting by the light of the moon. Jack has now found a blonde, She must have carried a magic wand To win him from all the other girls With his many, pretty, red curls.

Now some future day our Gerry will say, Truly, Mildred, won't you be mine.

I J IEE-LFE H one hundred ten Anna Mae and LeRoy would still be friends, Mary Alice wants to take band- She will need a private tutor- We wonder who will lend a helping hand? Maybe Wallace might Suter . This shows the love of Borchers and Beach. It was her smile that won her for himg It now happens he is out of reach. We sometimes wonder 'whom he will win. How long has it been, How long will it last, The picture tells the tale. And Cecil will tell you the past. They went together for quite a while, He thought he had her won With that brand new lovely smile. Alas! Virginia's thoughts turned to another s SOD. Two little sweethearts Sitting on a sillg George and Virgie-they are. Next year we hop-e they're friends still. Here are two more. Jim and Mabel, usually tcgetherg They seem to get along In all kinds of weather. Ray and Jessie together sat Every day at noong But a change of affections Caused it to end all very soon. Ruby, oh Ruby, won't you be mine? I am telling it to no one but you. Can't you tell Pm trying to shine For no other girl, than you? Cecil and Hazel+what do y'u th'nk! The way they found each other 'Twas was due to one wink, Then he introduced her to mother. Come on, Liz, let's have your pictule tack To show them how well we can look Inside a heart made for twog For a couple like this is something new. Oh puppy love is a wonderful thing, If we were to judge by this pair, Perhaps some day he'll give her a ring To show Mill he really did care. Jimamy and Carol, a very small pair, She's a trifle taller than he, Their love they will always share, But they like another-which is easy to sce. The best of all Is this cute pair. It's Hecht and Ball I do declare! Here's Betty and Bob, They're sure a loving pairg But when she gets mad- Goodbye to his hair. .iavigimmfw one hlnlrel lev n :Q .61 '1 -1 , Ng I Robert Gray's case is very unusual. A miniature sheep bell was fastened about his neck in order that his parents might dis- tinguish him from a grease spot. Marjorie Miller's singing career was early established, by her carrying' on midnight solos much to the chagrin of her father. Leona Ogg has to wear glasses all on ac- count of the fact that in young age she had an unconquerable habit of looking in kcyholes feye strainj. Clifford Orr will be another theatre man- ager, because in early life he learned to judge Mickey Mouse pictures on the nursery wall. At the toddling age Miss Hogle was des- tined to pound a typewriter, because she used to push the keys of her fatlicr's cash register to hear the bell ring. Evelyn Onken never cried much as a baby. Her parents thought that she was sick so they spanked her every morning. In two weeks of the second year she had cried more than she had in the first year of her life. C. McDonald - the horn tooter's chance came when he digested the mouth piece of a tuba. Isn't it natural he should want to add the rest of it? Wallace Suter was so amazed the first time he went to Chicago, that he sunburncgi his tons-ils looking at tall buildings. Richard Warfield, the big butter and egg man, received early training by counting the famous producers of hen fruit on the farm. Dick Noble's hoof-shaking proficiency came from early training on his father's bouncing foot. Betty Jane Phillips found a horseshoe in her garden. She threw it over her shoulder for luck. It came down in a mud puddle and splashed mud all over the week's wash on the line. I 1 l-e--i- :mv hum Ir:-al twolvv 72, Doris Harm, while riding in her perambu- lator, developed an inspiration for sticking cars in the mud. When no one would play with Helen Ko- foid, she spent her time twisting her hair around her finger, thus making ringlets. It continued to be curly until it was elbow length. Since she wouldn't allow her mother to curl it, no more ringlets for Helen. Evelyn Arens learned her deadly precision in making baskets before she was out of the cradle. She p-racticed first by throwing her rattles at the cat. Dorothy Jane Guy developed a wonderful pair of lungs by doing nothing other than blowing dandelions gone to seed to see if somebody loved her. Virgil Jordan claims he never had chil- dren's diseases until he entered high school. Mary Alice Blissard's first birthday came on a blizzardy day, hence in commemoration of her birthday she has a party in which the guests play fox and geese in the snow. Junior Swanson was always built to be a restaurant owner, when at the tender age of three he used to eat the holes out of the doughnuts and save his father a lot of work. Paul Young has captured the secret of eternal youth. Berna Suter must have played with her mother's curling iron in her youth, which ac- counts for her curly golden locks. Carroll Worley, the infant Carroll, devel- oped a French accent when only two, which later served him in good stead as a French horn artist. Genevieve Shirley at an early age prac- ticed chicken and Chog or dogj calling, which gave her a pair of lusty bellows to produce wind for the trombone in later years. iuvigiegfusvifw nm- huns -gl 4 They say Thelma Holland got he-r precision in geometry as a baby. She used to count the intersecting lines on the ceiling and she knew all about vertical angles before she came to school. It was different with Orlo Stauffer. His ceiling paper was plain. Not to be stopped by this, he learned to make baskets by throw- ing his bottle over his cradle's side. Jack Bradford liked his baths as a baby so well that from Saturday to Tuesday he looked back upon his last bath, and from Tuesday to Saturday, forward to his next. Mona Hamm used to take doughnuts out of the pantry. It was- trying to put the blame onto Charles that gave her practice for her dramatic work. Marion Young is young now but when she is older it is probable that she will not be Young. Mabel Beach dances well because, as a baby, she was given soup with red pepper instead of pimento in it. Wouldn't that make anyone dance? Donald Ayresman never wears a hat any more because, when yet very young, he got his chewing' gum in his hair and it is still there. Our editor, William S. Middleton, broke old light bulbs on his neighbor's barn. This was stopped when a bulb went through a win- dow. lBill didn't sit down for days.l Ellen Bradford, staff artist, adorned her home with pictures while quite young. Alas! They were unappreciated. She made them with crayons on the wall. Ray Blissard qualifies for a trumpeter for did he not, at the tender age of three, eat a victrola record of bugle calls thinking it choc- olate? LJ neu? fir: I-e. om- humlrvxi fourteen When anyone, especially a stranger, asks Jack Nagle for a comb, he is glad to see Jack hand one over. Homer Parrett used to love horses, but it you ask him what he thinks of them now he tells you that he is thankful that they don't fly. Mary and Mabel Beach used to quarrel continually but now Mary is bigger than Ma- belg so peace reigns in the Beach household. Kenney Neal, being the first child, he al- ways had his own wayg consequently he is still eating' too much candy. When still very young, he was noted for his ever-friendliness. This trait has followed him through his sen- ior year. Lina Neal, when but an infant, her desire for long hair developed and to this day that principle continues. Verna Wright had a habit of playing with cats. This terminated with the arrival of a black and white cat. Verna has not looked at a cat since. Margaret Nelson's first tooth was a sweet one, which accounts for her continued sweet disposition. Geraldine Climpson took cod liver oil and grew rapidly and frisky when a child, but when she grew older she formed a dislike for the fluid-hence the small size. Alberta Neal-Will wonders never cease? We are sure that three more Neal's never will. Robert and Elsie Rae McMahon - Who would ever guess from Bob's and Elsie Rae's actions now that they were so affectionate in baby days? Dorothy Cross developed into a cross-patch in her early days when her bottle was not given to her ten minutes before feeding time. She looks back on those days with a smile. 1 tbekfa ch, BAEJYVDAYS ra .f l5'E'7 H one hundred fifteen GIBSON CITY STATE BANK GIBSON CITY, ILLINOIS JOHN C. MCCLURE-President W. A.

HO GOES TO BUSINESS COLLEGE ? High School and College graduates constitute the large percentage of our student body. Each year quite a large number of young men and women come in to school after a few years' business exp-elience to prepare themselves for better paid positions. Our entrance requirements do not prevent the enrollment of students who have not finished high school, but we do strongly advise the finishing of high school first. By far, the large majority of those coming to our school are preparing to enter the business worldg but each year we have numbers of students. preparing' for college and university and a professional career, who want a business course before entering upon such professional training. Students receive expert training in every phase of office work which will tend to bring them preferment in business. They realize that our p-lan of development great- ly adds to their power to understand how business is done, and how to go about doing it. It is a pleasure for us to work with them, to know them intimately, and to have a part in speeding their progress to successful living.
