Back-to-school advice given by former MH principal Elliott Speer in 1932: "For us all a new year is beginning. Whether it is to be a good year or not depends on us. ...What you learn depends on you. We of the faculty are here to help you -- to help you achieve every serious purpose that brings you here. There will be stiff training, but if we make work into teamwork, it can be play. Let's have a good time together." #backtoschool #newbeginnings #NMH
