The Happy Years

Based on a collection of stories, the film centers on young John Humperkink "Dink" Stover, a student at Lawrenceville Preparatory School in 1896. His family in Eastcester, New York, has all but given up on his education due to his incorrigible behavior. Dink repeatedly gets into trouble and earns his classmates' dislike, but he alters their opinion by challenging several of them to a fight. During summer break, he meets Miss Dolly Travers, which only deepens his "hatred of women" when she rejects his schoolboy pranks. Returning to school in the fall, he becomes more difficult than ever until a teacher changes his philosophy.
