How to be a 6ontIemen

Let no boy think he can be made a
gentleman by the clothes he wears,
the horse he rides, the stick he car

house that he lives In, or the money
that he spends. Not one, or all of
these things do it; and yet every boy
may be a gentleman. He may wear
an old bat, cheap clothes, live in a
poor house and spend but little money
But how? By being true, manly and
honorable, By keeping himself neat
and respectable. BY being civil and
courteous. By respecting himself and
others. By doing the best he knows
