For Example
It was not in vain
Miss Carrie McLean
Went down to the legislature;
She helped a house quorum
Monkey laws to ignore ’em
And she did it with utmost good
nature.
She was gentle and gracious,
Not once ostentatious.
And the boys all thought she
was great;
So we hope she goes back
That the assembly won’t lack
One member whose concern is
the State.

DON’T
—Brag about your rich relatives.
—Chew gum or use toothpicks in
public.
—Depend upon your father’s repu
tation to get you through school
nor try to ride a high school
medal through college—hard work
is more effective.
—Slam the door or talk loudly—
your fellow student Is in the next
room.
—Repeat rumors—they are like
ly false.
—Study on Sunday.
—Be a kicker. If you are too big
for Chowan, there are busses
passing daily.
—Lambast your teacher if you
“flunk.” He wants you to pass.

3. The football man is all
right; he will tackle anything.
4. You can trust a tank man;
he will dive in and do his best.
5. The tennis man is harm
less; but he enjoys a racket.
6. Watch out for the base
ball man; he hits and runs.
7. Be careful of the member
of the dramatic club; he usually
has several good lines.
8. Don’t play cards with a
civil engineer; he’s a bridge spe
cialist.
9. Always let the member of a
band talk about himself; he en
joys blowing his own horn.
