The Manlius School

Arthur Huston attended The Manlius School, also known as St John's Military Academy, in Manlius, New York, just east of Syracuse. The Manlius School was recognized as one of the top military academies in the country, serving at one time as a feeder school for West Point.^[1]

Arthur was a Private in Troop "A". He played third base for his troop's baseball team and was a member of Hunt Club, which appears to have been a fox hunting club with hounds.

He was a member of the school's drama club, Punchinello, and appeared in several productions playing the role of a young lady. For Excellence in Dramatics he was made a "Companion" in 1909 and an "Officer" in 1910.
