_There is a time for some things, and a time for all things;
a time for great things, and a time for small things._

--Cervantes.


Actions wholly appropriate to the gymnasium or the playground may be
quite out of character in the Assembly Hall. Think about it.

1) Avoid all running, romping, and making of unnecessary noise in the
Assembly Hall.

2) Avoid using the Assembly Hall as a thoroughfare. On entering, take a
seat immediately, and remain in it until the next bell rings. Talk in
gentle tones.

3) Avoid eating anything in the Assembly Hall.

4) Avoid dropping paper on the floor. Help to keep the room orderly and
tidy.

5) For a program on the stage, 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.
