| Summary | "The Spirit of the School" by Ralph Henry Barbour is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the lives of students at Beechcroft Academy, focusing on the character Hansel Dana, who has recently returned to East Coast schooling after spending time in Ohio. As Hansel navigates his new surroundings and relationships at Beechcroft, themes of friendship, competition, and school spirit play a significant role. The opening of the novel introduces Bert Middleton, who is grumbling about his new roommate, Hansel Dana, who's coming to stay with him at Prince Hall dormitory. Bert recalls their childhood together and expresses his concerns about Hansel’s ability to fit in, especially regarding football. Their banter reveals Bert's initial prejudice against Hansel, while Hansel enters with a determination to prove himself on the athletic field. The chapter sets the tone for both the challenges that Hansel will face in integrating into school life and the football team's dynamic, sparking intrigue about how personal relationships and competition will unfold amongst the students.
