KIRKPATRICK, Principal 1921 TUSCOLTAN Page Three DEDICATION In this, our last year in high school, we have had the proper advice and guidance in our many undertakings. Our class advisors are largely responsible for any success we may have had in these ventures. As a token of appreciation we dedicate this book to Miss Harriet J. Sluss and Mr. R. C. Wulliman, our advisors and friends. TUSCOLA COMMUNITY HIGH SCHOOL Page Four TUSCOLTAN im TUSCOLIAN Page Five 19U THE TUSCOLA COMMUNITY HIGH SCHOOL BOARD The School Board is the body that takes care of the school, acting as representatives of the people of the Community. They deserve a great deal of credit. The Board consists of:— Mr. Carroll C. Jones, President Mr. Roy H. Johnson, Secretary Mr. George E. Black Dr. George H. Fuller Mr. George L. England Page Six TUSCOLIAN 1924 EDITORIAL We, the Senior class have endeavored to edit a better Tuscolian. We believe that we have succeeded. That is for you to decide. It is a great honor and pleasure to put forth our best effort for such a cause. This book, while edited by the Seniors, or more specifically by a Staff elected from the Senior class, is an example of what the school is. It could not be if the school and the townspeople did not support it. Thus your school spirit is shown. This book is the only record, so far as we know, of high school activities. For this reason, if for no other, we hope that another book will be edited next year and every succeeding year. And we urge your support in the years to come. In 1922 the cover and cover design were made standard. We ask that the 1925 Tuscolian will follow the custom and keep this standard. We have done our best. That is enough. CURTIS C.

Page Twenty-Two TUSCOLIAN 1924 History of Class On September 6, 1920, we former eighth graders entered the Freshman class with the ambition to attain further knowledge. The first thing we did was to follow the example set by the upper classmen in the election of officers and advisors. For president we selected Floyd Miller, and for secretary and treasurer, Grace Lollar. Later on in the year our president left school so Cecil Green was elected to take his place and Amelia Schroeder was elected as vice-president. Our advisors were Mrs. Flack and Mr. May. We began our social life by having a wiener roast at Patterson Springs. All enjoyed the event because we thought that we were rapidly ascending the steps taken by our predecessors. Now we had gladly said good-bye to the Freshman class. On September 5, 1921, we entered the Sophomore ranks with assurance that we wex’e steadily advancing in knowledge. At our first class meeting we elected Emma Hoel, president; Edith Hance, vice-president; Cleo Hine, secretary; and Edward Bailey, treasurer. For our class advisors we selected Miss Haynie and Miss Wiseman. On October 12 of that year, much to our regret, our dear old school building was destroyed by fire. However, our ever ready school board complied with our necessities in providing a place for us to finish our school work. They obtained a place in the Court House for us and we finished school there. On October 2, 1922, we proudly gathered into our new T. C. H. S. building as Juniors. At our first class meeting of this year we elected Horace Hackett, president; Fern Hollowed, vice-president; Curtis Marsh, secretary; and Cleo Hine, treasurer. For our class advisors we elected Miss Sluss and Miss Schujahn. Of course this year was a busy one for us. We gave a reception to the Senior Class and a Box Supper for the whole school. We also gave our Junior Class Play entitled: “Wrecking Robert’s Budget.” The last important thing we did was to elect our staff for the publication of the annual for 1924. On the following September, 1923, we returned again to our high school work with graduation our chief aim in view. As officers for this year we elected Curtis Marsh, president; Freeman Fortner, vice-president; Emma Hoel, treasurer; and Amelia Schroeder, secretary. This year’s work has largely been given to the production of the fourth edition of the “Tuscolian.” It is our chief aim to make it rank among the best ever published. Another event of this year was our Senior picnic, held at Patterson Springs. Our advisors Miss Sluss and Mr. Wulliman went along with us and enjoyed it as much as we did. It is to them that we owe much of our success for this year. H. L. “24” and L. L. “24.” 19U TUSCOLI AN Page Twenty-Three CLASS PROPHECY Again the autumn of 1936 comes around. It is one of those days that even the Gods envy. And from where I sit I can see the old Indian spirits dancing as they come back to haunt us once a year. But hark! I hear the sound of a motor, it comes from the air. Ah! it is an airplane, watch it alight. And the spirit of the Indians scatter as they had gathered near me for my scalp. A fine looking man gets out of the airplane and walks up to me and says neno. Can i believe my eyes? It is Colonel William James Scheideman of the U. S. aviation, known to us in school davs as Asker or Hog Feeder. He sees I am one of the gang of “24.” Then we sit down to talk old times over. Where is old Curt Marsh, president of the senior class? Col. Scheideman smiles in his mysterious wav and says why Curt is president of the stock exchange of Chicago. You haven’t seen Paul Rice? Yes, he’s a Doctor, head of the state department of health at Springfield. Anna Pigg and Beulah McDade are running a boarding house at West Ridge University. By the way, you know after H. C. Hackett graduated from West Point he was appointed president of the University of West Ridge. Blanch Pepper, Ah! little Blanche, yes, Captain of the police force at Garrett, Illinois. R. Cox dammed up the Ambraw, and owns a summer resort at what we used to know as Patterson Springs. Ah! where’s Hap Wright? She is running a beauty parlor on Fifth avenue. Victor Ross, president of the Western Electric Company. And who would have tnunk it? Miss Amelia Schroeaer now signs her name Mrs. Victor Ross. Bill, where is Fern Hallowed? She is Dean of women at Ficklin finishing school, for young ladies only. Where is Emma B. Hoel? Oh, she married Charles Bostic of course. He is head coach at Chicken Bristle. Freeman Fortner is a missionary somewhere in the great dark continent, and the world was shocked when he chose for his mate Miss Rachel Morris. Stote Reeder, dear old Stote, that the boys worshipped and the girls loved. I am best man at a wedding today, the bride is Mrs. Vix'ginia Reeder, you know. Stote is a lawyer. Lucile Matthews and Pauline Featherolf run the great Emporium at Camargo, Ills. Ava White, our timid little Ava, that used to cause one member of the Senior Class so much trouble, is cashier at the Emporium at Camargo, Ills. Elbert Crossman, playwright and actor, whose fame has even pierced the dark continent. Lawrence Alverson, the walking dictionary, conducts a school at Hayes for young men who are disappointed in love. Where is little “David” Crimmel? He is a civil engineer of a great structure going up at Garrett, Ills., which is to be a pool hall, owned by Dean Jones. Blanche says more trouble. _ Colonel, where are Sniek Von Lanken and Ed Bailey? They are with a circus, Ed for the clown and Shiek for his beauty. Evangeline Cain is married and lives north of town. Bill, where are Cleo Hine, Helen Larmore, and Leonore Lewis? Page Twenty-Four TUSCOLIAN 1924 Helen is judge in the Supreme Court. Cleo is the greatest artist since RaphePs time. Leonore, would you believe it, is head nurse for Doc. Rice at Springfield, Illinois. Uur Orville Foster and Willma Ross are married. Orville is deacon of the Cartwright Church. The Rev. W. S. Clapper and Mrs. Clapper, formerly Miss Lois Clyse make a stately procession going to church on Sunday. Blanche Leonard is first lieutenant on the police force at Garrett, Illinois. Asberry Clark and Grace Lollar are happily married. Then Bill said, “What about yourself?” I smiled and said, “Just a hobo in general.” Ceasar—“24” CLASS WILL We, the Senior Class of Tuscola High School, 1924, being of sound mind, but about to separate and scatter into pai’ts unknown, do hereby declare this to be our last will and testament.

AU REVO IK rage Twenty-Six TUSCOLIAN 192b CLASS POEM OF ’24 The world looked bright to us that day, We poor unlearned iresnies. When to the High School we had strayed, With many conscious blushes. The teachers all were very dear, They turned our work to pleasure. But each one had to be severe, And give to us good measure. We wished and longed for Father Time To turn his tables over. So we, as Sophomores could shine, And win some handsome lover. Old Father Time is very fast, And most before we knew it, Our lot as Juniors then was cast, That day we’ll never rue it. But this new rank meant harder work. We scratched our heads distracted, It was no use to try to shirk, So Virgin was attacked. Still once again we change our name, We’re nowr the haughty Seniors. Each one is seeking greater fame, On in some misdemeanor. We’ve struggled hard through school years. Such good times too we’ve had, l he thought of parting brings big tears To the eyes of each lassie and lad. Alma Mater we must go, We hear that sad refrain. The Gods and Fates have willed it so Forever we’ll praise Thy Name. F.

C. H. S. as if they had done it many times before. Nor did we feel as if we were samples of the renowned St. Patrick s favorite color. This attitude is one of our most marked characteristics and we have continued our triumphal march through five semesters to the tune of “That’s the peppiest class in school!” All this is truth, and has not some one said that “Truth is stranger than fiction?” Juanita Haney was the first president of this noble band, Ed. Scheide-man our vice-president, and Maynard Hine the trustworthy secretary-treasurer. The following year never were Sophomores more sophisticated than we, and as worldly people enjoy life, so did we find it imperative to indulge in picnics, parties, and athletics. Bostic and Gross were fixed stars in the athletic firmament by now, not to mention the other boys who upheld our honor in sports and the brave lassies who so valiently won the girls’ basketball tournament. Walter Fortner guided us through the intricacies of our second eventful year and Irene Koehn was vice-president. Ed. Scheideman was our treasurer and Dorothy Scoggin our secretary. Miss Weber and Miss Lindburg were our class advisors. But now we have left those hectic years and arrived at the elevated plateau where Juniors reside. When we assembled again our fortunes were in feminine hands, for we wisely elected our Junior officers at the end of our Sophomore year. The president was Dorothy Scoggin, vice-president, Ed. Scheideman and secretary-treasurer, Juanita Haney. Miss Lewis and Miss Lindburg hold the responsible positions of advisors. Even stately Juniors have frivolous moments and when murmurs of other class picnics reached us, the old urge was not to be denied. We decided to gratify our longing for one more hilarious picnic. It is not in a mere human’s power to describe the joys of that event—ah, no! rather, they are to be imagined. You will find our song birds in the Glee Club, regular ponies in the Latin Society, future “barn stormers” study in the Dramatic organization, ard aspiring Edisons sit on the front row at the Science lectures. However, now even the interest in our feminine and masculine athletes is aroused bv that class play, “Miss Somebody Else,” coached by our advisors to be given by this illustrious class. Will it be the success we hope for? Quin Sabe? C. B.

At our first class meeting we elected Constance Sturgell, president; Leland Lincoln, vice-president; Lawrence Griffith, secretary, and Ted Howard, treasurer. We held our first picnic at Kaskaskia. All reported a good time. Later, the class had a party in the gym at the schoolhouse. After many struggles as well as pleasures we completed our first year in high school. This fall, as Sophies, we knew just where to go and looked at the Freshies with a feeling, “I’m glad I’m a Sophomore.” Frank Michener was elected president; Mildred Harrington, vice-president; and Lois Campbell, secretary-treasurer. Miss Weber and Coach Bodman are our class advisors. We are proud of our boys who got out for football an 1 basketball. Those who got out for football were Charles Henson, Orville Haney and Leslie Cooper. Phillip Read and Archie Day got out for basketball. We feel that we are well represented in all high school activities. We have members in nearly all the clubs. As members of the Glee Club we have Anna Mae Fullerton, Miriam Beall. Martha Bartlett, Janet Skinner and Lois Campbell. Frank Michener is a member of the Dramatic Club. At the beginning of the year we made plans to go to Hugo for a picnic. On account of rain we decided to stay at the schoolhouse and play games in the gym. Everyone enjoyed himself. Then came semester exams and everyone was excited and nervous but came through with splendid health. Now we have all settled down to work once more. Exams are over until the end of school. We are anxiously waiting the day when we shall become “stuck-up” Juniors. M. B. H. L. E. C. “26” lm TUSCOLIAN Page Thirty-Five Hmc.

Some of us who had just graduated from the Eighth Grade met with difficulty in finding the classroom into which we belonged but after the first week we knew exactly where to go. Early in September a class meeting was held by Mr. Wulliman in the assembly for the purpose of electing class advisoi’s and officers. Miss Schujahn and Miss Young were chosen as our class advisors. Thelma Powers was elected president, Virginia Brown vice-president and Margaret Paullin secretary and treasurer. Everyone liked our president, Thelma, and we were sorry that she moved to Springfield. Virginia Brown, our vice-president became president and we learned to like her as we had liked Thelma. A meeting was called to elect a vice-president. Bud Lovett was elected. Our class colors were chosen maroon and gray. Three Freshmen were listed in the Special Mention Honor Roll for the first semester; Beulah Burmeister, ninety-seven; Evelyn Crossman, ninety-five and three-fourths; Charles Dotson, ninety-four and one-half; Beulah and Evelyn averaged the highest in school. One-third of the A’s made were by Freshies. We are proud of our grades and hope to do still better next semester. In football several Freshmen tried for the team. None were successful, however, but those who helped win several games were George Wilson, Clifford Sparks, Roy Froman, John Morris, Russel Black, Lloyd Griffith and Paul Matthews. Nevertheless, it is thought that they will be our future successful football team. In basketball several Freshmen tried for the team. None were successful, however, but show promise for next year. The third Friday in September proved to be rather a damp day, but who cared? The Freshies went to Patterson Springs for a weiner roast. Everyone enjoyed himself, playing games and roasting weiners. Mr. Wulliman served as chaperon. We settled down to work after that, however, deciding that it was the best thing for all good Freshies to do. Virginia Brown, Beatrice Beall, Marjorie Davis and Evelyn Miller became members of the Glee Club. In the play, “Daddy,” given by the Black and White Dominio Club, Beatrice Beall was the main character, Nellie, and Sybil Baker was the maid. They were pronounced successful by everyone. After the rush of the semester examinations we settled back to normalcy but wish to have a party next semester. M.

The purpose of the organization was to take an active interest in social science and debating. It was so named because of the close relation of the Civil War president to the two subjects dealt with by the club. Just after the formation of the society the following officers were elected: Lawrence Alverson, president; Victor Ross, vice-president; and Jaunita Haney, secretary-treasurer. The organization met once every two weeks for a short business meeting and an interesting program. The program generally consisted of a discussion, short talks, or a debate on current affairs. Through the work of the club our high school was made a member of the Illinois High School Debating League, composed of about forty high schools in the state. As a member of the League we were scheduled to debate with the Newman High School on Mai'ch 7. Because of the inability of Newman to compete we were adjudged the winner and thus made eligible to the second series of the state-wide contests. The activities of the club for the year were very satisfactory and of much benefit to the members. It is sincerely hoped that the work of the organization will be carried on as successfully and on a much larger scale next year. 192U TUSCOLIAN Page Forty-Three BLACK AND WHITE DOMINO We owe our Dramatic Club to the cast of the Junior Class Play of 1922, as it was organized by them and by their untiring efforts the club arose to its present standard. A first meeting was called electing, President, Frances Fullerton; Vice-President, Clarabelle Henson; Secretary-Treasuier, Kussel Smith; and choosing the colors black and white and the name Black and White Domino to represent the club. The purposes of the club are (1) to acquire poise before an audience, (2) acquire skill in dramatization, and (3) to acquire a sincere interest in, and appreciation of the interpretation (thought and action) of all that is goed in literature. The club decreed that candidates for membership would be selected from the casts of all the school plays and would be admitted by unanimous vote of the active members. The Black and White Domino first made its debut into dramatics with the presentation of “Hearts to Mend.” The play proved to be a success as did “Mr. Bob” the second dramatic hour. From these plays several new members were taken into the club. In February the club conducted a play writing contest. Clara Vaughn won the prize by writing “Bachelorines,” which was presented in May. With the valuable aid of Miss Pringle and Mrs. Constance Fuller-Myers, the club was pronounced a decided success and so its first year was closed. The opening of this year school year found eleven active members in the club. Charline Lester was chosen President, Dorothy Scoggin, Vice-President, and Neil Von Lanken, Secretary and Treasurer. Miss Lewis and Mr. Bodman agreed to help us in our dramatic ventures. The first play presented was “Daddy,” a two-act comedy, coached by a member of the club. As a result of the first dramatic hour three new members were initiated. Domino pins were selected and also standardized by the organization, and it was decided that yearly a play writing contest should be held and that the winner should be presented with a five-dollar gold piece and honorary membership in the club. The contest is now going on and it remains to be seen who will win the prize. The club hopes to put on several more dramatic hours before the close of school, and we wish to thank Miss Lewis and Mr. Bodman for their efficient help in making the club a success. As the first play given by the Dramatic club this year they presented “Daddy.” A play which is very humorous and attractive in three acts, by Lilli Huger Smith. The play was directed by two members of the club, Misses Charline Lester and Virginia Walthall. Loth are verv talented and skilled as directoresses. The play was a great success. The characters were: Mr. Wrexson Brown Charles Bostic Thomas Lovett David Bailey Frank Michener Freda Hopkins Beatrice Beall Lois Garber Teddy Brown Paul Chester Thompson Mrs. Wrexson Brown Nellie Brown Mrs. Chester Jane Sybil Baker I. K. “25” Page Forty-Four TUSCOLIAN 192U DRAMATIC CLUB SCIENCE CLUB 19U TUSCOLIAN Page Forty-Five SCIENCE CLUB The Science Club was originated from the Radio Club of last year. There was a list of new members added this year. We have five different branches of science represented in the club. They are as follows: Chemistry, Physics, Household Science,Radio, and General Science. With all of these different branches of science we have had some very interesting programs. Namely, Mr. Wulliman and members of his physics class gave interesting talks on the Mechanism of Automobiles. Miss Deer and members of her general science class gave interesting talks on Earthquakes. Miss Lindberg and members of her household science class gave lectures and demonstrations on action of Acids and Alkalis in bread doughs and batters. After the lecture, she served refreshments. Mr. Wulliman, Miss Lindberg, and Miss Deer are Advisors. The officers are as follows: USCOLA—Galley 5 Maynard Hine President Owen Wilson................Secretary Treasurer Juanita Haney .............Vice President The program committee consists of: Owen Wilson Clara Vaughn Juanita Haney With the hearty co-operation of thirty-eight other members, our club has been a success. “Woodie” Cl LEE CLUB rage Forty-Six TUSCOLIAN 1924 GLEE CLliB The Madrigal Club of the Tuscola High School was first organized by Miss Constance Fuller in February, 1923. Tryouts were held and those having musical ability “made” the club. About eighteen of us survived the tryouts. We elected Ruth Pogue for president and Emma Hoel for pianist. Miss Fuller selected many pretty and appropriate songs for us to sing. We sang at Commencement, Baccalaurate, Woman’s Club and several other public places. We ended the year with quite a successful program. We elected the president for the following year. Mira Voelkel was chosen. With the closing of the year Ruth Pogue, Ferris Morgan, Dorothy Shreves, and Frances Fullerton graduated. Also Miss Fuller left. At the beginning of this yeear we started once more to organize the Glee Club. We elected Grace Lollar for president, because Mira Voelkel did not return. As none of the teachers had the time or the musical ability to take charge of the dub. we chose Miss Drvnan, the grade school music teacher, under the supervision of Miss Thora Lindberg to take the club. Both have been very faithful and we have gotten along pretty well. Virginia Walthall, Virginia Brown, Beatrice Beall, Evelyn Miller, Marjorie Davis, Dorothy Rose, and Janet Skinner were taken into the club. They have added a lot to our little club because when the seniors left there were only nine of us left. We also chose Lois Campbell for accompanist. This year we decided to organize on a firmer basis. A committee consisting of Irene Koehn, Mildred Jones, and Miriam Beall, was appointed by the president. They drew up a constitution which was put before the club and adopted. There are several strict rules—but—we don’t care, for we are interested enough in the club to obey all of them. Several times this year we have sung in public to display the talent which Miss Drynan and Miss Lindberg helped us to develop. In April we plan to begin practicing for an operatta which we hope to give in May. We hope, that at the end of this semester, we shall have had a very successful year. M.

The officers for the year 1923-24 were Neil Von Lanken, president; Maynard Hine, vice-president; Edward Bailey, secretary; and David Bailey, treasurer. Mr. Kirkpatrick and Mr. Bodman were chosen as leaders of the group and the work was immediately taken up. The meetings were held every Wednesday night. About thirty-five boys belong to the group and much benefit and enjoyment has been derived from the work of this organization. The group also had its athletic and social activities which have made a very successful year for this bunch of boys. —E. B.—24 Page Forty-Eight TUSCOLIAN 19U THE HIGH SCHOOL ORCHESTRA H. S.

We take this opportunity to thank the Board of Education for their co-operation in supplying us with music and thus making it possible to have this organization. 1924 Page Forty-Nine TUSCOLIAN THE VERARITA CLUB LATIN CLUB The members of the Verarita, or Latin Club are Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors, who are Latin students. Freshmen are eligible after taking Latin for one semester, if they have a grade of B plus in that subject. We re-organized the club at the beginning of the school year, electing Grace Lollar, president; Frank Michener, vice-president; and Gerald Campbell, secretary-treasurer. We meet twice a month and have interesting discussions. We learn about the people in Rome, their customs in ancient times, and about the buildings in Rome. The lesson hour is in charge of two people, who sometimes give out topics to other members of the club. Frequently we have a round table discussion. In October the club held a picnic at Patterson Springs. After games and good eats around a roaring bonfire, we left the grounds. Everyone had a fine time. We also had a social at a meeting on Valentine’s Day. We had a valentine box and a great deal of fun over some of the valentines. They all had some verse written in Latin on them. We think that the Latin Club has been a success this year although it has had not quite so many members as last year. There are more members from the Sophomore class than any other because more Sophomores take Latin. We hope that our club may be bigger and better next year. We feel that we have been helped a great deal by the companionship of our instructor and advisor, Miss Sluss. L. E.

The duty of each reporter was to collect news and jokes that occured in the classes, write them down and hand them to the Chief Editor. This was one of our ways of letting the people outside know what was going on inside our High School. The reporters from the classes were as follows: Senior—Rachel Morris; Junior—Sparky Scheideman; Sophomore— Marjorie Timm; Freshman—Thelma Davis. The Chief Editor was Amelia Schroeder. GYM CLUB Page Fifty-Two TUSCOLIAN 192U THE GIRLS’ GYM CLUB President....................... Emma Hoel Vice-President..................Helen Murray Secretary-Treasurer A melia. Schrnedcr Advisor.........................Miss Schujahn The Girls’ Gym Club which has been in existence for several years, has been more active this year than ever before. It’s T«atest achievement was to become a member of the State League of High School Girls’ Athletic Associations. The officers of this association arc: President, Florence Guffin, Oak Park High School; Vice-Prisident. Pauline Knapp, Dekalb Normal; Secretary-Treasurer, Pha Ruggles, Joliet High School. It’s purpose is to standardize girls’ athletics throughout the state To become a member of the Gym Club, girls must earn a certain number of points as outlined by the State League. Points are earned by participation in the athletic activities of the school, such as basketball, folk dancing, gymnastics, apparatus work, and stunts. In this way only active and interested girls mav become member. A soring initiation was held March 20, at which each of the neophytes had to prove her worth by winning some contest, but was later consoled by delectable. The Girls’ basketball tournament was held Feb. 20 and 21, under the auspices of the Gym Club. We hope some day to provide a loving cup to be presented to the winning class team. Last fall the club sponsored a health campaign which applied to all the girls in the high school. Prizes were given to the girls having the best health card in each class. On December 8th, the club served the traditional Football Banquet to the boys on the squad. The sewing room was beautifully decorated in the high school colors, and the tables in the shape of a huge “T” were laden with “turkey and dressing.” Mr. Kirkpatrick was toastmaster. The club is proud to say that it presented the Ladder to the high school as part of the gymnasium equipment. We also supplied the shower rooms with curtains, and we intend to buy a tennis net and balls, if the school board will lay out a court on part of the athletic field . Other-activities on our program ave hiking and selling sandwiches at football games. A spring party will close our activities for the year. If you will examine our record of achievement, you will agree that the Girls’ Gym Club has a real function to perform and is of very practical service to the school. We hope to continue this kind of work, for we believe that service alone justifies the existence of a club, and in’service we find our greatest pleasure. E.

Fortner “24” 192h TUSCOLIAN Page Fifty-Seven Fool ha! I ]923 The football season of ’23 was one of the most successful in recent years. The team was tied once. The rest of the games they won in a handy fashion. The outstanding features of the team were its cleverness and its courage. The team owes a great deal of its success to the moral and physical ability of its captain, “Caesar” Green, who never has failed to play a mighty game at tackle, and who was as good as a stone wall on delense. To its Coach, Wm. Sereno Bodman, the team owes cleverness and machine-like execution of plays, which never failed to gain ground when it was needed. The team never lacked spirit and fight, and in every wray showed the qualities of a championship team. CHAMPAIGN (6) VS. TUSCOLA (0) The first game of the season was played at Champaign under a boiling sun. The Tuscola Warriors held the Champaign team to a tie for the first half, relying mostly upon Bostic who easily outkicked Sounder despite the fact that the Maroon booter got away several 50 yard kicks. Champaign scored late in the 3rd quarter when Tuscola fumbled a punt on her own 20 yard line, the Maroons recovering and driving down the field for a touchdown. They failed to kick the additional point and the score remained 6 to 0 the rest of the game. It is doubtful if Champaign could have made the touchdown without her reserves who helped to wear down the Tuscola team. In all, the Maroon coach played about three different teams against Tuscola’s one team, and was only able to score one touchdown. The most lustrous star of the game was Bill Clapper, Tuscola’s fast end who went down under punts and dropped the Maroon players in their tracks. This game though won by Champaign was later awarded to Tuscola due to the fact that Champaign played several ineligible men. This Page Fifty-Eight TUSCOLIAN 19H makes Tuscola’s record 1000 per cent, a record not excelled by any other school in the state, and equalled by only a few. URBANA (0) VS. TUSCOLA (3) Although out weighed ten pounds to the man, Tuscola was able to take the measure of Urbana in one of the hardest fought games ever witnessed on the Tuscola field. Tuscola scored early in the game by receiving the kick-off and working the ball down to the 45 yard line, from which Bostic booted a perfect drop kick. Undaunted the Urbana team came back and fought the Tuscola team to a standstill. The half ended with Urbana in possession of the ball in the middle of the field. In the third quarter Urbana made a drive to Tuscola’s 10 yard line, but here the Tuscola line stiffened and Tuscola took the ball. This was the only time Tuscola’s goal line was threatened. Capt. Hudson, Urbana’s best half back, was a star for Urbana and was responsible for their great fighting spirit. Bostic of Tuscola easily took the kicking honors, but in this was ably assisted by Clapper and Ross who never allowed an Urbana back to return a yard with a punt. The game ended with Tuscola in possession of the ball in the center of the field. ATWOOD (0) VS. TUSCOLA (37) Tuscola received the initial kick-off and with a series of line plays and end runs carried the ball to the twenty-five yard line from which Bostic booted a drop-kick squarely between the bars. This started the scoring and in spite of the fact that Reeder and Gross were not in the line up the Tuscola machine continued to score throughout the game. Bostic gained the most ground and the most points for Tuscola, making two touchdowns, four dropkicks after touchdowns, and one drop-kick from the field. Reeder was injected late in the game in time to catch a beautiful pass from Bostic and run 25 yards for a touchdown. The game proved that Coach Bodman had several substitutes that were capable of giving a good account of themselves in any game. TUSCOLA (52) VS ARTHUR (0) With the entire lineup in the best physical condition since the opening of the season, the Tuscola High School team was able to romp away with a 52 to 0 win over Arthur High on the local field. The Arthur team, while outplayed in every department of the game, put up as plucky a defense as possible, was unable to withstand the terrific line assaults and spectacular end runs, brilliant forward passes and all-around good football put forth by the Tuscola team. The Tuscola team on the other hand played brilliantly. Bostic, Clapper, Reeder, the two Scheideman brothers, Crossman, Williamson, and Green played great defensive football, holding the Arthur team to gains aggregating less than twenty yards for the whole game. VILLA GROVE (0) VS. TUSCOLA (37) Saturday, October 25, the wearers of the old gold and black journeyed to Villa Grove, where they had little trouble in swamping the football aspirants of that city. The final score was 37 to 0. From the very first of the game the Tuscola team showed marked superiority over the railway town boys and there were only few times when the ball was in play in Tuscola territory, in spite of the fact that Villa Grove had been especially prepared for this game and played better than in any previous game At the beginning 0f the second half Coach Bodman put in most of the second string men, whose playing was on a par with Villa Grove’s. 192i TUSCOLIAN Page Fifty-Nine The feature of the game was the deadly tackling of Tuscola’s line which was allowed to get through to the secondary defense. NEWMAN (9) VS. TUSCOLA (24) The old gold and black of the Tuscola Community High School again waved triumphant by defeating Newman High School by a score of 24 to 9. The game was played on the Newman field and was expected to be a hard game but turned out to be rather easy for the Tuscola players. Tuscola scored early in the game by a short pass to E. Scheideman, who evaded the Newman backs and ran twenty-five yards for a touchdown. This seemed to discourage the Newman team and Tuscola again scored, this time Reeder intercepting a pass, made his way to the one yard line from which he crossed the goal line on the next play. This completely demoralized the Newman team and Tuscola scored again, this time Vic Ross picking up a fumble and running thirty-five yards for a touchdown. The second half was of a different nature, the Newman team outplayed Tuscola, and was able to score nine points in this period. The Tuscola lineup until now had put out high class football but at this point it went to pieces allowing the Newman line to filter through and block a few punts. Up until this time Newman had not been beaten and it was expected that the teams would be evenly matched. MONTICELLO (0) VS. TUSCOLA (7) Before the largest crowd of the season Tuscola defeated the Monti-cello warriors in a hard fought contest which kept the crowd in a continuous uproar throughout the game. Bostic’s sensational punts and long end runs were the features of the game. The game brought out the real strength of the Tuscola line showing in every respect that it was equal to Monticello’s line. Captain Green, playing one of the greatest games of his career, was supported equally well by W. Scheideman and P. Williamson, while Hea-cock, the husky guard, was as good as a stone wall. BEMENT (0) VS. TUSCOLA (0) The Monticello game coming on Monday and the Bement game on the following Friday seemed to be more than our boys could master, for they were unable to score on the husky Bement team. The game while played at Bement was fought to a finish, and it was not until the last whistle blew that anybody could tell how it was going to come out. This game was the only game of the season that was not won by the Tuscola team, and by comparing scores it could be easily seen that Tuscola had the better team. ARCOLA (6) VS. TUSCOLA (13) In their annual clash with Areola, Tuscola was able to out-splash their ancient rivals by a score of 13 to 6. The game was played in a sea of mud, neither side being able to gain much advantage over the other. In this game much was due to Reeder, who acting as a ram by his size and weight, was able to make five yards whenever it was needed. The first score came in the first quarter after Tuscola had worked the ball down to the five yard line, from which Gross took it over on a trick play. Areola’s only score came in the second quarter by a fumbled punt. They failed to kick the additional point, however, and the score stood 7 to 6 at the end of the half. (Continued on Page 6-1) 192U TUSCOLIAN Page Sixty-One THE 1924 BASKETBALL SEASON The Basketball season of “24” was successful to the extent that we won more than half of the games of the season. Luck seemed to be against the team from the start for when they did get to going good one of the players would have to drop out on account of ineligibility or injuries. Capt. Reeder was the outstanding player of the team and much is due to him for the success attained by the five. The forward wall consisting of Gross, Crimmel, and Von Lanken, showed plenty of ability in dropping in baskets when they were needed. The two guards, Bostic and Scheideman. usually plaved a good game and helped the rest of tho team out considerably, sometimes. To Coach Wm. Sereno Bodman, the team owed its clever offense and overpowering sti'ategy. The team showed some high class basketball in the Douglas County Tournament, easily taking the cup, besides placing three men on the all county team and one on the second team. Those who played their last game for the old Gold ad Black this season were, Capt. Reeder, Crimmel, Scheideman, and Von Lanken. ARCOLA AT TUSCOLA, DECEMBER 21 Areola opened the season at Tuscola on the Friday night before Christmas vacation. The game was exciting although poorly nlayed. The five that started gained a small lead. Then the seconds played the second and third quarters and lost the lead. In the fourth quarter the first five barely managed to win by a small margin, 23-21. TUSCOLA AT CHAMPAIGN—JANUARY 4 Before vacation was over Tuscola went to Champaign. Lack of practice and lack of coordination told, and Champaign won 45-21. Individually tne team played well but their work as a unit was terrible. Page Sixty-Two TUSCOLIAN 192 It BEMENT AT TUSCOLA—JANUARY 11 Bement beat us 24-20 here. They had a good team but we out-scored them except for the second quarter. Stout for Bement was exceptionally lucky, and gathered three baskets in succession from the center of the floor. SHELBYVILLE AT TUSCOLA—JANUARY 18 Shelbyville played better than any team we had met except Champaign but we beat them 18-14. The Tuscola guards had the Shelbyville offense stopped completely except for long shots. NEWMAN AT TUSCOLA—JANUARY 25 Tuscola easily beat Newman 27-8. The team was rather slow getting started but finally found themselves. TUSCOLA AT MATTOON—JANUARY 26 Tuscola went to Mattoon and won 26-13. Bostic played sensational basketball in this game. Tuscola tcok an early lead and kept increasing it as the game progressed. The play was fairly fast. COUNTY TOURNAMENT For the second time in as many years Tuscola won the county tournament. It began Friday night when Tuscola met Areola. The first team beat them 17-0 in the first quarter. Then the seconds went in for the rest of the game. The final score was 28-12. Saturday afternoon the Tuscola-Villa Grove game took place. This was easily the fastest game of the tournament. Tuscola began well but Capt. Reeder was ejected on fouls in the third quarter. Villa Grove crept up and were only one point behind and three baskets by Gross, Crim-mel, and Bostic in as many minutes made the score 18-9. Saturday night Tuscola easily beat Newman for the championship although Newman led at the first quarter. Reeder, Gross and Bostic of Tuscola were selected for the all county team while Von Lankan was placed on the second selection. FINDLAY AT TUSCOLA—FEBRUARY 9 After leading the first half 12 to 4 Tuscola lost to Findlay 21 to 20 in an overtime game. The Shelby county lads were probably the fastest team that appeared on the local floor this season. The first half of this game Tuscola played the best basket ball she displayed all season. TUSCOLA AT PAXTON—FEBRUARY 12 Tuscola celebrated Lincoln’s birthday by traveling to Paxton only to lose 33 to 19. The trip, strangeness of the floor, and etc,, were a handicap, but Paxton played much better basketball the first half and managed to hold Tuscola the last half. TUSCOLA AT BEMENT—FEBRUARY 16 Tuscola five journeyed to Bement Friday, Feb. 6th, and in a hard fought game were able to defeat the Bement aggregation by a margin of one point. The ame was one of the fastest played by Tuscola throughout the whole season. Gross and Reeder were the stars for Tuscola, while Barnet dropped the most baskets for Bement. TUSCOLA AT FINDLAY—FEBRUARY 22 Without the services of Gross Tuscola lost to Findlay at Findlay “22 to 15!” Neither team played as well as they did on their previous (Continued on I’ase (i4) 102U TUSCOLIAN Page Sixty-Three Page Sixty-Four TUSCOLIAN 1921, TRACK, 1923 Tuscola High Hid not have a track team in 1922, and in 1923 Coach MacWherter had to deal with green material. Orville Foster, 880 yard runner, was the only letter man on the team, having won his letter in the Douglas County meet in 1921. The first meet Tuscola participated in was the Paris meet, April 28. Next came the Eastern Illinois Interscholastic at Charleston. The last meet was the Interscholastic at the University of Illinois. Tuscola didn’t make many points but they received a great deal of training which will help for the 1922 season.

Scheideman carried it over on a quarter back sneak. Tuscola failed to kick the additional point and the score remained 13 to 6 the rest of the game. Those who played their last game for Old Gold and Black were: Capt. Green, Wm. Scheideman, Elbert Crossman, Paul Williamson, Stote Reeder, Bill Clapper, and Vic Ross. (Continued from Pa ire U2) meeting in Tuscola. Captain Reeder outplayed the widely heralded “Mauzey” in this game. MATTOON AT TUSCOLA—FEBRUARY 23 Tuscola again beat Mattoon 25 to 11. The game was fast at the beginning hut soon slowed up somewhat. Scheideman played well at guard in this game. SULLIVAN AT TUSCOLA—FEBRUARY 29 Although Sullivan led at the end of the first quarter 8 to 1 Tuscola managed to win from them 22 to 14. Reeder and Gross sent some pretty lingers to get the lead. Crimmel’s passwork was exceptional. TUSCOLA AT SHELBYVILLE—MARCH 1 The last scheduled game of the season. Tuscola went to Shelby-ville and were beaten by one point, 16-17. Both teams were much improved over their form in the other game. The Shelbyville team later beat Findlay in their district tournament. TUSCOLA AT URBANA—MARCH 6 Tuscola lost their first game of the district tournament to Urbana 2- Urbana was forced to go the limit to win however, as Tuscola led at the half 10-8. The play of Captain Reeder in this game was exceptional and won for him a place on the second all district team although he played but one game. 192U TUSCOLIAN Page Sixty-Five 192U TUSCOLIAN Page Sixty-Seven Page Sixty-Eight TUSCOLTAN 192Jt BAIT FOR BUGS Miss Sluss (in Caesar class): “Anna Mae, what is another way of saying he approached nearer?” Anna Mae: “He came closer.” Mrs. Flack: “Who was elected President in 1844, William?” William Scheideman: “Polk.” Mrs. F.: “Why was he elected?” William: “Why, because he had the majority of votes.” 1' Grace (handing Rachel a reference book) : “Rachel, here is your Beard.” Anna Louise Maris (in Stacy’s) : Mr. Stacy: “How many pencils will you have?” Anna Louise (slightly disturbed) : “Oh, I’ll take a Gross.” Miss Lindburg (in cooking class) : “After whipping the cream you must milk the eggs.” I WONDER WHY Dot Scoggin never changes vests? Curtis Marsh always uses the same Koehn? Char line Lester is so interested in becoming a Reeder? Charles Bostic goes to the same Hoel for a date? Ruth Clapper was not named Bell? Eunice Rolls? Wulliman doesn’t join a side show? Melville doesn’t help in the cafateria? Can Philip Read? Is Gladys Wright? Is Russel Black? Is Ava White? Is Cecil Greene? Is Virginia Brown? Is Dorothy Deere? Is Nelle Young? Is Elbert a Crossman? Mr. Wulliman: “It is believed by some people that you can plant potatoes in the moon and it will make a difference in crop production.” Mrs. Taylor: “Who wrote Gullivers Travels?” Emma Hoel: “Why, er, it was Milton.” Milly Jones: “I got up at five o’clock this morning to go to the train.” Dave Bailey: “Oh Mildred, was the sun shining and did you get up by your self?” Miss Taylor: “Paul, what did the Angles and Saxons bring with them?” Paul Rice: “Their costumes.” 192i TUSCOLTAN Page Sixty-Nine JUNIOR CLASS PLAY JUNIOR PLAT, 1923 At the High School Auditorium at eight o’clock Friday evening, May 11, 1923, the Junior Class presented “Wrecking Robert’s Budget.” It was a very interesting and clever comedy in three acts. The author of the play is Eugene Hafer. Two evenings before the play was presented, Eleanor Landers, one of the leading characters, was taken suddenly ill and it was necessary to choose another character. Virginia Walthall, a new student in the Junior class at that time, took up the part and after one practice was capable of carrying the play on. Miss Walthall deserves to be complimented very highly on her success. All other members of the cast deserve honorable mention.

Page, Seventy TUSCOLIAN 192i MISS SOMEBODY ELSE JUNIOR PLAY, 1924 Time—About 8:00 P. M., on Feb. 27, 1924. Place—H. S. Auditorium. As an undertone to the stirring music of the orchestra, there is the accompaniment, of rustling programs and the buzz of conversation in the audience. Looking over the sea of faces one can easily pick out the proud, yet anxious faces of the parents and relatives of the young dramatic artists who are soon to make their debut in the Junior class play, eagerly awaiting the rising the curtain. Ushers in picturesque costumes of red and white, decorated with gold braid and brass buttons flutter around, showing in the late arrivals. Meanwhile let’s go behind the scenes. Scene 2. Time—Same. Place—Dressing rooms nd back stage. Here all is excitement and bustle. Can these be our fellow students? These persons dressed as French maids, chauffeurs, society girls and matrons, old maids, boys stiff in tuxedos, yea—even a handsome villian and an aged and absent-minded scientist! One hears these phrases and questions— Give me that lipstick Irene.” Oh! does my hair look alright?” “1 just can’t remember a one of my speeches!” “Everybody ready?” “Now keep quiet. All right curtain.” Scene 3. The cast in the order of their appearance are: 1924 T U S C 0 L I A N Page Seventy-One Mrs. Delevan, manager of Tuxedobrook Club House.......... .Nellie Schroeder Mildred Delavan, the Delavan’s flapper daughter .......... ...Mildred Jones Jasper Delavan, a scientist...............................

Freda Hopkins The title itself suggests the plot of the play—a rich young society girl visits an old friend of her mother’s, Mr. Delavan. Finding her on the verge of bankruptcy, she determines to aid her, both personally and financially. To accomplish her aim she disguises herself as Nora, an Irish maid. Then things happen. The social set of Tuxedobrook flock to the renovated club house, Mr. Delavan’s scientific discovery succeeds, and the Delavans prosper once more. As to Nora, she recovers some bonds stolen from her father by Ralph Hastings, a clever young crook, also causes his arrest, thereby saving Mildred Delavan and Fay Blai iwood from wasting their affection on him in the future. Crugor Blainwood, who has assisted Constance in her career as Nora, at last persuades her to “love, cherish, and obey” him till death do them part. The greatest part of the success of “Miss Somebody Else” is due to our directors, Miss Lewis and Miss Lindberg and to Mr. Conover who so kindly assisted in ironing out the wrinkles in it just before production. SUN’IOU PLAY, 1924 Page Seventy-Two TUSCOLIAN 192i THE SENIOR CLASS PLAY On Friday evening, April 4, 1924, the Senior Class presented “Come Out of the Kitchen” in the High School Auditorium. The play was presented in the Dangerfield Mansion in Virginia. The two sons and two daughters were left in charge of the mansion while Colonel and Mrs. Dangerfield were abroad, fighting for the Colonel’s health. The place was under a heavy mortgage and the children were getting very short of money when a Yankee millionaire rents the hou for six weeks, through a young real estate agent who is in love with Olivia Dangerfield, the eldest daughter. The lease calls for four white servants and they do not come. To save the five thousand the young Dangerfields assume the servant roles. Olivia takes the part of the cook, Elizabeth the part of the maid, Charles the part of the boots and errand boy, and Paul the part of the butler. None of them like this but it’s all they can do. Crane arrives from the north and brings three guests along. They are his attorney, Solon Tucker, Mrs. Faukener, Tucker’s sister, and Cora, her daughter. The guests have a hard time with the servants and Crane discharges all of them but the cook. Tucker has fallen in love with the cook by this time and Crane has a very serious case. The cook likes Crane, however, and he gets her. THE CAST OF CHARACTERS Olivia Daingerfield ......... Paul Daingerfield ........... Elizabeth Daingerfield ...... Charles Daingerfield ........

Leaving the high school building at five o flock we soon arrived at the spring and had a big blaze going. The football boys with the Coach came out and my how they did eat. Mr. Wulliman, Paul Rice, and Tat Hackett braved the icy waters of the Ambraw for a little while but they soon sought the warmth of the fire. The committee on eats were very thoughtful and we almost cleaned them out. Coach only ate four (4) ice cream cones and eight (8) weiners and sixteen (16) pickles. Not much for a mere boy. After playing a few games we returned home tired but happy. HALLOWE EN PARTY The Student Council gave the High School Party on October 31. 1923, in the High School Gym. The decorations were fantastic and fitting for the occasion. The students were masked and the best couple was given a prize. Roy Froman and Russel Black won the prizes, they being dressed as devils. The entertainment committee had various games for us to do. Lois Campbell and Marjorie Timm gave readings. “Ceasar” Green told us the history of All Hollows Eve. The fortune teller had a rushing business and her readings must have been good because several of her customers were happy the rest of the evening. The refreshments committee served us cider, cookies, apples and candy. After the refreshments the phonograph was the feature of the evening. At ten o’clock someone started playing “Home, Sweet Home’’ and we dispersed. II. C. H.—“24” JUNIOR PICNIC The Juniors, not to be outdone by the other classes, held a nicnic at Patterson Springs. Cars carried us to our picnic grounds. The boys ■'eon had a hi fire going and when it made coals we roasted wieners. Some burned them. The wieners with buns, pickles, apples, and marshmallows, made im our picnic supper. We then built the fire up and told ghost stories till we were afraid to look over our shoulders. After that we came back to “The Old Home Town.” tired but happy. D. S.—“25” SOPHOMORE PICNIC Because the Sophies wanted to have a picnic it had to rain. We are so bright that we had to have something to dim our lustre. All was not lost however because we went to the Gym and tided to make-believe we were at Rice’s Woods. Our refreshments committee, with the assistance of our directors made the indoor picnic a success by their culinary art. Our entertainment committee had us play various games and lo! before we thought of it, it was time to depart. F.

We joyfully embarked for Rice’s Woods and upon arriving at our destination we started to explore the deep canyons and huge mountains of the ' amareo ridge. Our refreshments consisted of wieners, buns, pickles, and doughnuts. After the refreshments were eaten we decided to go to the picture show and thus we ended our first picnic. V. B.—“27” JUNIOR-SENIOR RECEPTION On May 25, 1923, in the beautifully decorated gymnasium and cafeteria the social event of the year was held. Although the weather conditions were bad it did not dampen the spirits of the banquet. The dinner was served in the cafeteria, which was decorated with the colors and flowers of both classes. The gymnasium was decorated to represent a lawn. The Senior president with his partner led the Grand March followed by the Junior president and his partner. The faculty followed immediately behind them; then the students of both classes. The girls of the Sophomore class were waitresses. The menu was as follows: Strawberries on Stem Creamed Chicken in Patties Mashed Potatoes with Peas Olives Pickles Celery Radishes Tomato Cups Cake Brick Ice Cream Coffee Interpersed with the dinner were toasts given by the prominent members of both classes and of the faculty.

Light refreshments were served by the boys. Members of the faculty served as chaperones. ANNUAL PICNIC The losing side of the Annual selling contest in accordance with the rules gave to the winners a picnic. The picnic was held at Rice’s Woods. Q°v°ral of thp students took a boat-ride anfl arrived too late for the refreshments. The picnic was a success. If you don’t thing so ask Bill Scheideman if it wasn’t. 192k TUSCOLIAN Page Seventy-Nine Page Eighty TUSCOLIAN 1924 192b TUSCOLTAN Page Eighty-One Alumni Banquet Amidst the drapings of old gold and black, the Alumni of dear old T. H. S. gathered December 28th, 1923, in the basement of the Methodist Church. The response to the banquet was general, there being one hundred and fifty present. The oldest class present was the class of 77, which was represented by Miss Laura Dawson. The latest class, the class of ’23, had the largest number present. Among the out-of-town guests were Mrs. Mattie Calvert, Miss Mayme Smith, Mrs. H. T. Baker and daughter Marjorie, and Judge Boggs, all of Champaign, Illinois. The first course of the banquet was fruit cocktail; the second, baked chicken, mashed potatoes, French peas, hot rolls and fruit salad. The last course was the gold and black ice cream, cake, coffee and mints. During the dinner Thatcher’s Orchestra, of Mattoon, Illinois, played. Doctor Ingram, of Tuscola, Illinois, an alumnus of ’05, acted as toastmaster. Toasts were given by Judge Boggs, of ’85; Grover McCormick of Oakland, Illinois, and of the class of ’05; and Miss Harriet Sluss, of Tuscola, Illinois, an alumna of ’10. A gathering of this sort would not be complete if it weren’t for some snappy yells which were led by Freddie Williams. Also the old T. H. S. songs could not be sung nearly so well without the leadership of Claude Hoel. The officers: Max Wayne Vest, president; Everett Stacy, vice-president; Lyda Hunt, secretary; and Hazel Lear, treasurer, were unanimously re-elected for the ensuing year. The time and place of this year’s banquet was left to the decision of the officers. In order that this meeting might be closed fitting and proper to the occasion, the graduates marched over to the Gymnasium to witness the basketball game between the Alumni and High School teams. The High School team proved victorious of the evening. The second Alumni Banquet is eagerly waited for by the graduates of T. H. S. Announcements of Engagements Dan Cupid's arrow has pierced the hearts of some of our graduates. The result of the piercing is the announcement of the following engagements : Miss Elizabeth Weaver of Indianapolis, of the class of ’18, to Fred Turner, of Urbana, Illinois, of the class of ’18. Miss Edna Brown, of Champaign, of the class of ’20, to Earl Heacock, of Tuscola, Illinois. Miss Irene Dickinson, of Peoria, Illinois, of the class of ’23, to Don Blair, of Villa Grove, Illinois. Miss Pauline Thompson, of Champaign, Illinois, of the class of ’18, to Perry O’Neal, of Tuscola, Illinois, of the class of ’ll. TWINS How many of the members of the classes of T. C. H. S. thought they would see one of their own classmates become the proud owner of a pair of twins? In four cases this is true. Mrs. Paul Huffman, of Pesotum, Illinois, formerly Gladys Thompson, of the class of 1919, has twin boys, George and Paul Huffman. Mrs. Estella Hatfield, of Evanston, Illinois, formerly Estella Caraway of the class of ’92, has twins, Elizabeth and Anne Hatfield. Mrs. J. E. Romine of Tuscola, Illinois, formerly Margaret Vaughn, of the class of ’98, has twins, a girl and a boy, Ruth and Robert Romine.

SlIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIIIMIIIIIIIIMnillllllllllllllllllllllllllMllllimillMnilllllllMIMIIMIIIIIMlimillMIIIIIIIIIUI : OU can’t read all the advertising booklets that come to your desk. But there are some that you cannot afford to throw away. These simple rules may help you to select the right ones: 1. If you do not like the looks of a booklet, let the waste-basket have it. There will be others in your mail that are well arranged and attractively printed on good paper. The thought and extra care given to them are in accord with the value of the merchandise they advertise. 2. Read only advertisements that interest you. If an advertisement does not have a new message or does not tell you something of direct profit to you, turn to one that does. 3. Do not believe anything that does not sound true. The best merchandise and the real bargains do not have to tell more than the truth. 4. Do not bother with booklets that are hard to understand. If a man does not describe his goods or his service in simple language, he should ask someone to help him. 5. Don’t worry about whether the advertising pays. If advertising didn’t pay—and pay well— the advertisers would have quit long ago. All advertising pays to a certain extent. But the shrewd business man gets the BEST for his money. The Herald Printing and Stationery Company has made a careful study of advertising values and the ways to overcome resistance to buying. It is not content with the best printing. The message it prints must be worthy of the medium that carries it. A representative of the company will be glad to call and help you plan direct advertising that will bring maximum results. Let us print a booklet or a folder that will be read THROUGH by every man or woman to whom it is addressed. llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllimillllllMIIIIIIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIh HERALD PRINTING STATIONERY CO. 237 NORTH MAIN STREET DECATUR, ILL.
