Sophomore—Alma Guardsmoe, Ruth Skinner, Hugh Garnet, Dewey Fagerburg Freshmen—Evelyn Wylie, Katharine Kemp, Maurice Weaver, Howard Newman The editors and all others concerned, take great pleasure in submitting this number of The Reflector to those interested in Paxton High School. Owing to the sickness of Mr. Bainum, The Reflector has not received as much attention this year as it has in previous years; but, from the first of the year it has been the hope of the Senior Class to publish a final number, which would be larger and better than any former issue has been. However, their anticipations have not been fully realized, for, as Commencement comes so much earlier this year than it has before, a decided rush in everything has been necessary. Nevertheless, the editorial staff and members of the classes have endeavored to edit a number which to some extent will “reflect” the studies, the pleasures, and the sentiments of the High School students. A committee of four from the Freshmen, Sophomore and Junior classes, respectively, two from the Senior Class, and a business manager, have all worked faithfully upon their departments. And, although the material may not be perfect, dear reader, we ask you to feel with Voltaire, as he says; “Perfection is attained by slow degrees; she requires the hand of time.” In closing, the members of the Senior Class desire to thank those who have so willingly contributed to their number of The Reflector—the reporters, the faculty, and those outside of the school.
