Center Rush Rowland E-text prepared by Donald Cummings and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team "Center Rush Rowland" by Ralph Henry Barbour is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book centers around Ira Rowland, a seventeen-year-old youth who arrives at a new school, Parkinson School, eager to begin his academic adventures while navigating the social dynamics of student life. The story explores his encounters and challenges as he settles into the school environment, including his initial experiences with classmates and the humorous, sometimes awkward moments that arise. The opening of the novel introduces Ira as he arrives in Warne, Massachusetts, and begins to explore his new surroundings. He reflects on the similarities between Warne and his home in Cheney Falls, Maine, while also expressing excitement about attending Parkinson School. As he searches for a room to stay, he encounters various classmates, some of whom engage in light-hearted teasing and banter. This establishes the social hierarchy and personalities he must navigate. The chapter draws on both humor and the relatable experiences of transition, setting the tone for Ira's journey as he makes friends, faces conflicts, and explores his newfound independence in a boarding school setting.
