In a world marked by uncertainty, we pause to celebrate those from Horace Mann School who have brought laughter to the world, and reflect on the humor that has always been part of the Horace Mann experience. “as you doubtless know, dear reader… History is the narration of facts in the order of their occurrence. a class history on the other hand, is usually a very different matter, dealing as it does with only pleasant facts (and such other things as sound interesting). if the faculty would only recognize this last characteristic in History “exams” some of our most respected members would be in a much happier frame of mind… it would be both foolish and untrue for us to make that ancient and moth-eaten statement ‘we are a great class,’ for it is perfectly apparent for anyone with fiveelevenths of an eye that we are the greatest bunch that ever entered Horace Mann.” —the Mannikin, 1905 E n t er L 6 Horace Mann Magazine Fall 2009
