Academy Review 9 any sort are very discourteous in the classroom. It is also a mark of courtesy to speak distinctly so that everyone in the room will be able to hear. It is just as important to be courteous in the home-room as in the classroom. It is courteous to keep the desks neat and orderly and cooperate in every way pos- sible with the teacher in making the room bright and clean. Perhaps one of the greatest needs of courtesy is at recess, when so many stu- dents use the corridors and schoolrooms for playgrounds. All forms of active play should be eliminated because of injury to persons and property. At games students should not forget to play the part of a good sportsman. To be a good sportsman students must treat the opposing team with marked courtesy. Students may develop courtesy by first learning the rules given above and then, p1'art'i.rf', j11'az'!i.rv, fvrucfisc. One has to remember only that, There is a time for some things, and a time for all things, a time for great things, and a time for small things. FACULTY FRANK ti.

6 Academy Review elaborate evening dressc s. lt absolutely is not necessary. :Xs was said before, it is simply a matter of opinion. Simple, neat, and becoming dresses are perfectly all right for anyone to wear at any of our school times. As for other school times. elaborate evening dresses would be entirely out of place. Think of all the good times you've missed maybe on account of dresses - foolish dresses. Mothers and daughters, just please think it all over a little and see if you don't agree, at least in part. NV. F. B., '30. F, A.-10024, For what is li. .-X. bound? Are we going to let members of our school get low rank? I should say no! We get N024 in banking: and how did we do it? Some of the backers of the school got behind it and pushed. llut the banking project wasn't so very heavy. just a few could put that over the top: however, this ques- tion of rank is so very heavy that all li. A. students, parents of the students and the faculty, must all push together and at the same time. For altogether too long the faculty and parents have done the pushing and at that many of the parents decided that their duty was merely to send their children to school. Do you love F. A.? VVelll Show it then and make her a IOOCXJ school. COURTESY Life is not so short but that there is always time enough for courtesy.-Emerson. N ot only in Foxcroft Academy but in every school there is the continued need of courtesy. There is need of courtesy in the assembly. in the corridor, in the class- room, in the home-room, at recess. at games and in all school activities. The assembly is the place where the school as a whole most closely touches the outside world. There is no better place to practice courtesy. There should be atten- tion and quietness when anyone is speaking. Students should refrain from doing anything which shows discourtesy to the one who is conducting the assembly. Another place where courtesy or discourtesy may be shown is in the corridors. One should remember to observe the trafhc rules and pass quietly and quickly from oneyclass to another. If everyone will remember a few simple rules, much conges- tionland confusion in the corridors will be obviated. i ,There is also a chance for courtesy in the classroom. Students should go at once to their seats upon entering a classroom and sit attentively. lnterruptions of
