Mansfield High School - Manhigan Yearbook (Mansfield, OH)

THE ANNUAL There it stands in all its glory— Our old red-brick M. H. S. In its halls a goodly number, Now are striving for success. Through the hours long and weary— We at times think school a bore; But in future years these hours We shall never once deplore. Do we not within these portals, Settle questions of the day. Which are tantalizing mortals, Mortals, made of finer clay? Do we not dispose of these things:— Women ' s Suffrage and her right? Finance, Standard Oil and Statecraft, Or the Presidential fight? When our boys are old and feeble, And have nothing else to do, They will sit around on boxes, And those good old times renew. Then they’ll tell precocious youngsters, How they studied all so fme With their only time for pleasure: Playing on the base-ball nine. How they were the all-star players— Basket-ball and foot-ball too: How they whipped the other fellows, As their reputation grew. And the girls in caps and kerchiefs, Spectacles and snowy curls— Will talk over while they’re knitting, Their good times as High School girls. How in bygone days they labored— Sometimes far into the night; Working wildly at their Latin, German or their French polite. Chocolates few they ate and never Longed to plunge in social swim; Went to bed at sharp 9:30— And but seldom talked of “him.” Then the children, wide-eyed, wond’ring Think it surely must be fine— To have gone to Mansfield High School In the year one-nine-naught-nine.
