I 2 THE MACK SENIOR CLASS HISTORY. In the fall of 1918, the graduates of the previous June were traveling eagerly to investigate the future of knowledge await- ing them in the high schools about the country. Near Shirland, there lived a dark-haired, mischievous lass who had previously graduated from the Coon Cree-le. grade school. She knew that a land of mystery awaited her in Shir- land high school and eagerly hurried to join her friends who were about to enter that wonderland. This girl was Helen Tay- lor. She spent two years of study in this place and graduated with honors in the early summer of 1920. In a similar institution of learning about seven miles away al. the little village of Rockton, a group of graduates also accom- panied brothers, sisters, or friends to the high school on the hill. These students also finished the two years of learning offered. It is possibly necessary to mention that these bright sophomores were: Marcia Cowen, Frances Hill, Esther Stevens, Lore Clover and George Osborne. A few miles away in Roscoe, the five graduates from the eighth grade, Kenneth Buchanan, Frank Newton, Nellie Kaeh- ler, Lenore Sturtevant and Alice Belden began their high school career in the Roscoe school. They succeeded very well under the instruction of Mr. Rowson and Miss Hermonson. The fol- lowing year all deserted except Nellie, and Alice, Frank left to work on a farm, while Kenneth and Lenore strayed into st-emingly fairer fields at Harlem. Lenore strayed back again at the end of the first semester owing to ill health. Kenneth sailed or Hoated through two years, completing the course. The two girls left behind at Roscoe, completed the course also but had no graduation owing to the small numbers. From the Heyward grade school, north of Roscoe, Edna Ellis entered South Beloit, where she too completed two years' work. Thelma Burgess, from south of Rockton, entered Rockford High in the fall of 1917 21111-l completed a two years, course. She returned in the fall of 1918, but only for one semester. Then
