e[ LOGON MONEY RULES AT HIGH SCHOOL SAHARA is NIGHTMARE
WHAT STUDENTS MUST
NOT DO SET FORTH
Also There Are Certain Things
Which the Authorities Ex-
pect of Them

1t is not the intention to have many
rules of conduct in Mankato high
school. The spirit of the students is
such that they may be relied upon
generally. to do the right thing. Only
a few specific rules therefore, are
made but these are absolutely neces-
sary ana must be carefully observed.
One. Students who fail to report
to classes or study halls, when in
school, or who leave school without
permission, will be suspended immed-
lately. No -instatement will be
made unless students and either par
ent or guardian appear in person at
the Principals office. Parents and
students are respectfully asked not
to request deviation from this rule.
Two. Rude conduct about the build
ing is to be avoided. Loud talking,
whistling, pushing, jostling and run
ming in the halls reflect unfavorabIy
Oh the student body and give visitors
bad impression. M. ii. S. students
are expected 10 conduct themselves
at all times according to the principles
Of good breeding.
Three. Hardness is serious mat
ter. Not only is it bad thing for
the individual to arrive late but
study halls and classes suffer from
the disturbance of late corners. Stu
dents must get the habit of reporting
to all study halls and classes on time.
II they are not in their seats when
the bell rings they are tardy and
must report at the office to secure an
admit. When a student has been tardy
more than once he will be required to
report to the office at 500 the next
morning to make up time. The value
OF promptness is so generally known
that it is not necessary to dwell on
the benefit Of this regulation.
Four. Stuents who have been alb
sent Will not be admitted to classes
without an admit from the office.
They should present written excuse
from the parents stating why they
were absent.
Five. No students will be allowed in
the gymnasium except during class
period or when they have special per-
nits from the Physical instructors.
This includes the time before and
after school as we'll as the noon hour
Six. All students who eat lunches
in the building must eat in the main
hall of the old building or in Room
So. This will prevent scattering of
food through the building and will
make the place much heater and more
sanitary in every way.
At 1900 the hall bells will be rung
and all students except those in
classes, must be out of the building
at this time. In bad weather students
may go to assembly 3 after lunch
rrasSo, -rIIcTc
until The 12:45 bell. In passing
through the halls, students should
pass quietly SO as not to disturb the
4th period classes. No student will
be permitted to enter the building
between twelve and 12:45.
Seven. Students who are excused
into the building and loiter in the
cloak rooms until the next period be-
gins. If they arrive early they must
go Immediately TO the office for an
admit to Assembly B and must report
there. Those who are excused before
the close of school are expected to get
out of the building at once. Failure
to comply with these regulations will
result in the withdrawal Of the ex-
cuse. Lettering in coat halls makes
bad impression on visitors and will
give NJ. H. S. poor reputation.
Eight Students may not use the
telephone during school hours, and
only the most urgent calls will be de-
liverad The unrestricted uSe Of the
telephone by 500 students has proved
to be serious matter in the office.
Classes are also made to suffer by the
interruptions. Parents as well as
students are respectfully asked not
to request deviation from this regula
fion.
1T pays around here to be on tine
and to do the right thing"
