Page Sixteen THE FACULTY. We of the World are prone to do and get With small regard for endsg for self we strive- At best for nearest king the clearest fret We finger on life's viol sounds alive A note of gaing the rule of life We set Is good returns, and ,works that richly thriveg And 1ife's scant blood We freely give That we at ease may sometimes live. In thotless years, we vaguely felt your worth Yet not for long thy thot for us was lostg In later years, we sadly feel the dearth Of men so trueg thy pains have left embossed On striving souls impress that things of earth Not all of life containsg We feel the cost Of service, know the World will rate The name of earnest Teacher, great!

First Township High School in Illinois. In the spring of 1866 the people of Princeton township de'ter1nined to have a public Township High School. This was the result of a general desire for better educational facilities, and of a full and free discussion of the best methods to obtain them. Accordingly, the school trustees organ- ized the township into The High School District of Princeton, and at an election held on April 23, 1866, the present site was selected, and three directors were chosen to administer the affairs of the district. Plans for the building were adopted, and in June the contract was let, the building to cost about forty-five thousand dollars. To give unquestionable legal sanction to the rather unprecedented undertaking, as well as to organize the work more perfectly, a charter was drawn and introduced in the legislature in January, 18673 and was promptly passed, and approved by Governor Oglesby on February 5, 1867. The school was opened to pupils in September, 1867, with M r.. Henry L. Boltwood as principal and under his able management, aided by the hearty support of its patrons, achieved great success. Since then, under excellent faculties, the institution has increased its enrollment and greatly improved its courses of study until now, under the guidance of the present principal, Senator H. S. Magill, the Princeton Township High School has obtained an honored and renowned standing a- mong secondary schools of the state. Page Eighteen , , ,,,
