SCHOOL I'UI'ILS ARRANGE CODE OF CONDUCT The pupils of Grade 8, Holly- burn School, have been studying the "Athenian Oath'in their composition classes as a sample of good writing, and from it have developed a school oath in which are included the pupils'deas of how they should govern them- selves during their school life. School Oath. EVe will never bring disgrace to this, Our School, by any act of dishonesty or poor sportsman- ship, but will strive unceasingly to uphold its ideals and stand- ai ds, both alone and among others. )Ue will endeavor, at all times, to do our work conscien- tiously and cheerfully, neatly and accurately, being prompt and attentive to obey all our com- mands. In all our play we will be sportsmen, modest when vic- tors, cheerful when losers. We will respect our teachers and obey them in every instance, at all times being "courteous and dutiful." We wil lbe loyal and kind to our schoolmates and never by word or deed will we purposely injure, wrong or hu- miliate them. We will keep the school premises clean and order- ly, and care for the school furn- iture as if it were our own. Thus in all these ways, we will set a good example to the younger pupils, and transmit Our School to them. not only not less, but greater, better and more beau- tiful than it was transmitted to us. The pupils realize that the "Oath" is an ideal but they have decided to "hitch their wagon to a star and to follow its gleam."
