PREPA IONS FOR
FIRST CLASS CITIZENSHIP
Very important in our prep
arations is our CONDUCT. i.
our ability to mingle comfor-
tably and pleasantly. with
OTHER PEOPLE. In pre-
pairing for First Class Citizen
ship, we must remember that
we are living in a world
where we cannot be blind to
those around us. We have
a SOCIAL DUTY, even to the
strangers we meet. To all
people, regardless to their
National origin or the color
of their skin. Most people
are quick to realize courtesy
and eager to respond to it. !.
One writer has said, "Do not
wear your courtesy like a
watch, to take it out now and
then when you wish to inn
press people. BE courteous
always-not only on the street
and in the car, but in shops,
at the theatre, wherever you
go, with whomever you hap
pen to be. ever remem-
bering that COURTESY, like
a boomerang, will return to
you who send it into the
world. Let us prepare our
selves for First Glass Citi-
zenship by being GENTLE,
being KIND, being SIMPLE
in our taste and SINCERE
in our actions. by letting
everything we do and say be
governed by a DESIRE TO
PLEASE OTHERS. For
these are the things that
truly distinguish a FINE
CHARACTER - this is the
way to belle the often made
statement that Negroes have
a cultural lag".
