The class was organized a year ago
last fall, with a charter membership
of about five. Rev, Hildebrand was
chosen to be the teacher. The mem
bership has gradually Increased to
a present membership OF seventy.
five and an average attendance OF
about forty. 1t Is presumed to be
the largest high school class in the
state and Is the largest in Casper.
II is the liveliest class in the com
munity. That is easy to see when
1t is noted that It has grown from a
membership Of five to seventy.flve
In about a year and a half. The
goal for the pre.Easter campaign is
n hundred members, and We are
going TO hit the mark.
Our class is full Of pep and VIC arc
progressive. We have outlined a
Code of Ethics which Is to be the
working guide throughout tile organ.
ization. We have high ideals-both
as to church and church school work
and rs TO community affairs. We be.
llevc hat young people can aid in
the progress of public affairs as well
as u own, and are willing 10 do
our best. We have attracted seventy.
five members from GUN high school
and we Rre going 10 get more. This
accomplish ment alone is a boost to
Casper.
As to the organization Of the ciass
We have selected Tau Gamma
Gamma as the name for the club,
which implies "The Go Gettcrs." We
have chosen for our Code of Ethics
the four fold plan known as the
-Four G's," which are Giving, Grow
ing. Going, Gaining.
Giving represents Service We
believe that the first and most i'm.
portant duty Of Il citizen is that of
public service. The community has
given us an education. it has pro
tected US and prepared US for life
work. then certainly there is some.
thing We should give hack to the
community. There are many ways in
which one can serve the public. The
first is to be a good citizen. II does
not seem that being a good citizen
is service and yet. how much more
success would be reached If every
one was a good, faithful. honest law
abiding citizen. Second. one may be
of service to the public by being a
merchant. or by following a profes.
sion. Commerce makes and. supports
a community, and the more trades
and professions it has the more
prominent will be the community.
Then last we may serve the commu-
nifty rs a public official. The public
usually decide the reputation and
morale Of a community. Commerce
cannot thrive in a crime wave. Meth,
er can our citizenship be respectable
under such ~unfavorable conditions.
So 1t Is seen that all OF tho funda.

mentals of public service depend up
on the activities oG public officials.
The class tries to follow. and
carry put this program of service
In its own organization. We have all
graduated from nigh school, or are
attending now, and we have learn
ed in that institution to be good citl.
zens. to respect and follow vocations
and professions and to respect pub
lie duty.
The second ideal in u code is
'Growing"-which represents char.
acter building.
The fundamental principle in pre-
pairing for citizenship Is character
building. "Thc morale of society de-
ponds entirely upon the character of
individuals.
Tho inspiration to follow n voca.
ton or a profession does not come
TO weak characters and little re-
spect do they have for public inter
es,e. Character building consists OF
mental. moral. spiritual and physi-
cal education. In a good character
non can be limited or neglected for
tho WORTH Of one depends upon the
other and they cannot be separated.
Moral and spiritual education is the
standard of a community. No com
munltv car wholly succeed without
Its churches.
The third ideal lie Progress.
There is little TO be said about prog
ress except that 1t depends upon all
the rest of the principles for which
our organization stands. There is no
question that our class is progress
ing. when 1t Is remembered that 1t
, 1925-01-31

has grown from a membership 81
five to seventy-f five III a year and a
half.
Last Of our ideals Is Gaining OF
retaining. Unless one retains the
education and training that he las
previously obtained little has bccn
gained. Tic best way to keep u thing
is TO make use Of 1t. II IS easier 10
save money by putting 1t 10 wori..

cation or profession. and serving -
