Paxton High School Reflector Senior (Class ICtutertcks Our school ma’ams this year are but few. No doubt they'll find plenty to do There’s Lorene and Mae VVho’re always quite gay, However, their duty they’ll do. Marie comes along with these two, Who's able and willing to do; And Helen and Bess You know them 1 guess, And Mary and “Make” Farrell too. Our typists this year are but three; This number is small, you can see. There’s Leila and “Ede Who’re noted for speed; And Mary, too, makes up the three. There’s Florence and Hazel who sing. Like birds who soar cn the wing. And lest we forget There’s Theresa you bet; Who moved from cur midst just this spring. Six hoys help make up the hall team Charles Ernst is coach so it seems; And “Kolly” and “Lai With Erby” their pal, And Oh! Glenn is, too, on the team. From Wall town come three from the soil Who daily and nightly do toil, They’re Kenney and Gee, And Johnson, that’s three. Who earn their good credit by toil. And there are three more on the roll Who’ve finished their fight for their scroll. They’re Mauritz and “Skeet” Who're hard to defeat. And “Hutch” who comes out at the goal. H. I. S. ’19.

On June 28, 1901, on West Spruce Street in Paxton. Theresa White's gray eyes first opened. Her school work began at the age of six years when she entered the West Lawn Grade school. Theresa entered High School at the age of 13 years, leaving her rightful class still in the grammar school. This was not long to be, for at tne end of her Sophomore year a great unforeseen monster, called Inliamatory Rheumatism, accosted her and bade her pause. This illness prevented her from entering school until the second semester of the next year and so prevented her from graduating with last year’s class. We, however, were more than delighted to hail her as one of us once more, and the old saying holds. It’s an ill wind that blows no one some good.” During her High school course she pursued scientific and mathematical paths which appeal to her most strongly. In February 1919, “Treet’s parents moved to Evanston, Illinois where T re-a entered Evanston Township High School at the beginning of the second semester, it was not until then, as she s.ates. that she realized how ell she loved old Pax:on High School.

She is a member of the United Presbyterian Church at Paxton, and a mi tr of the Methodist Episcopal Sunday school at Evanston. Theresa will stay at home next year, but in the full of 1920 she will en. r.r .Northwestern. She is undecided as to what course she will pursue, but it i-- afe to sav that she will succeed In whatever course may be her cnoice.— (F. H.)
