e, and for general singing, gather quietly
in the center sections if your Assembly Hall is large. You should do
this without waiting to be asked. Use your judgment.

6) The appearance on the platform of one who is to speak to you should
be your signal for immediate silence and attention. Don't wait to be
called to order; call yourselves to order.

7) Sing so well that you make the general singing a delight. You will
find it far more fun than trying to spoil the program. Why will you?
Because it is your nature to feel more satisfaction in cooperating and
helping by doing your best, than in hindering and thwarting by doing
your worst. (This is the basis of all good manners, and of civic
spirit.)

8) You should be attentive and silent, not only when some one is talking
to you from the platform and when a "number" of any kind is being given,
but also during a "movie." People who visit while others are trying to
entertain them are a public nuisance. Don't let yourselves slip into
that class. Also do not tell the plot of a play or a movie to your
neighbor.

9) Never, in the Assembly Hall or in any other place where there is a
large group of people, should you stand and beckon, whistle, or
"hoo-hoo" to attract the attention of your friends.

10) If you enter the Assembly Hall after the program has begun, find a
seat so noiselessly as to escape notice.

11) Show your appreciation cordially, but avoid excessive applause.
Never stamp your feet or whistle. Carried beyond a certain point,
applause ceases to be a courtesy. Cultivate good taste in this matter.
Moderation is a mark of good taste.

DUTY TO CLUB OR CLASS SPONSOR

_Her air, her manners, all who saw admir'd;
Courteous though coy, and gentle though retir'd;
The joy of youth and health her eyes display'd,
And ease of heart her every look convey'd._

--Crabbe.

1) Remind your sponsor (or adviser) of your meeting two or three days in
advance of the time.

2) Before acting on any plan, be sure of the approval of your sponsor.

3) So treat your sponsor that she (or he) will delight to be with you.

THE LAVATORY

_Cleanliness is next to godliness._

--Wesley.

1) In school, in a store, in a club, on trains, in short, wherever you
use a public wash bowl, leave it as clean as possible.

2) Do not scatter toilet paper about. Keep the toilet rooms neat and
clean and free from all writing on doors, walls, windows.
