FOREWORD
"The supreme business of the school is to develop a sense of justice, the power of initiative, independence of character, correct social and civic habits, and the ability to coöperate toward the common good."—Dr. Frank Crane.
How do you develop correct social habits, the habits of a gentleman or a lady?
You develop correct social habits just as you develop correct habits in playing ball, or in swimming,—you discover the rules; then you practise, practise, practise. A good general rule is, Do what a kind heart prompts; for,
The kindest thing in the kindest way.
We earnestly hope this little book may help girls and boys to become happier, more agreeable, and more effective citizens.
THE DEANS OF GIRLS,
CHICAGO HIGH SCHOOLS.

And so make life, death, and that vast forever
One grand sweet song.
As to be hated needs but to be seen;
Yet seen too oft, familiar with her face,
We first endure, then pity, then embrace.
And bend our conscience to our dealing;
The Ten Commandments will not budge,
And stealing will continue stealing.
GREETING
Life is not so short but that there is always time enough for courtesy.
—Emerson.
Girls, the word lady should suggest, ideally, a girl (or a woman) who keeps herself physically fit, her thinking on a high plane, and her manners gentle and winsome.
Boys, the word gentleman means, ideally, a fine, athletic, manly fellow who is an all round good sport in the best sense, and who has manners that do not prevent other people from seeing how fine he is.
THE STREET
Remember this,—that there is a proper dignity and proportion to be observed in the performance of every act of life.
—Marcus Aurelius.
1) If you are well brought up, girls, you will not loiter on the street to talk to
