THE M. H. S. ANNUAL. 13 Our Principal. nbR1NC1PAL Frost was born in Dutchess County, New York, but of New England ancestry. He was graduated from Yale College in 1857 with speaking appointment, having entered the class two years in advance. He has taught ever since graduation. He was elected Principal of Lewis Academy in 1858, and afterwards had charge of the preparatory department of the Claverack College. He has also been Principal of Amenia Seminary, New York, and afterwards of South Berk- shire Institute. Among the many whom he has prepared for college are a valedictorian and a salutatorian for Yale, and a valedictorian for both Wesleyan and Union. For several years he was a contributor to Harper's Magazine, furnishing original observations in Natural History. While at South Berkshire Institute he re-wrote and revised for A. S. Barnes 8: Co. their High School Geography, adding to it Frost's Geography and Outside Test Books. This last he also gave in a course of lectures at Chatauqua and South Framingham. His pamphlet on Onomatology was given before the University Convocation of New York, and with other papers was printed by the state. Mr. Frost came to Meriden in 1888 and immediately took charge of the High School. His genial nature and kindness of heart soon gained for him the hearty good-will of all. From childhood his love for literature has been great. Aided by his phenomenal memory, which makes it possible for him to repro- duce the exact words of almost any author, he has been able to give to English literature a life and spirit rarely excelled. Principal Frost possesses the hearty good-will of his students and has great enthusiasm for his profession. He has often said that he was never conscious of an hour of weariness in teaching.
