passing through; then glance over your shoulder to prevent the door from
swinging back into the face of any person who may be following.

6) In order to appear to the best advantage, keep your hands out of your
pockets.

7) Try not to jostle one another. If by chance you do, say, "Pardon
me."

8) Observe, boys, that well-bred men rise when addressed by a woman who
is standing.

9) Avoid whistling in the school building, and even in a private home,
for your whistling may be annoying to some who cannot help hearing it.

10) Never, never, be so disgusting as to spit on the floor, on the
stairs, or into the waste-paper box; use your handkerchief.

11) Care for your finger-nails, your face, your hair, in your room at
home, not before mirrors on your locker doors, or in any other public
place. After making your toilet as well as you can, forget it.

12) Boys, it is not necessary to help the girls mount the stairs in
school unless they are blind or crippled.

13) Girls, it is better not to twine your arms about one another in the
corridors and on the stairs; also, not to kiss one another tenderly if
you separate for a few moments. Love your friends dearly; but be
sensible, not sentimental.
