Macedonia High School Yearbook
Editorial
1926

While the
custom of issuing an annual exists in many schools, but a single
attempt to do anything of the sort has been made in the history of
Macedonia High School. In 1906 the Junior class had printed a year book
which was a credit to any school its size.
A study of that ancient volume shows that the 'Donia spirit exists to
as marked a degree as at present. Probably the most curious and
interesting feature of the 1906 Annual to modern readers is the fancy
masquerade costumes worn by everyone who posed for a picture in the
book. At least, the disguises would be considered perfect according to
modern modes of dress. We hesitate to draw any hasty conclusions, but
we are willing to wager that if our present superintendent were to wear
a costume similar to that worn by the Mr. Caillot who was Principal of
the school in 1906, with mustache and all other fixin's, there would be
a striking resemblance. The safety razor has indeed been kind to the
human eye!
Here is a partial list of the things which did not annoy the Principal of the M.H.S. in 1906:
Flat tires
|
Radio Blah!
|
Late classes
|
Bell gone dead (no juice)
|
Drain pipes stopped
|
Trips to Omaha to shows
|
Mail plane overhead
|
Noise in Shop
|
Band practice
|
Cooking odors, D.S. or Shop???
|
Mimeograph gone bad
|
Saxophone music (?)
|
It is the sincere desire of the Class of 1926 that the Class of 1946
will stand ready to continue the pleasant custom of getting out a year
book every 20 years at M.H.S.
