LUNCH ROOM
_Cleanness of body was ever deemed to proceed from a due reverence
of God._
--Bacon.
1) See that your hands are clean.
2) Avoid rushing into or through the Lunch Room. Walk.
3) When carrying your food to your table, pay strict attention to
getting it to its destination in safety.
4) Eat in the Lunch Room,--not in the corridors, nor in the Assembly
Hall, nor on the street. Give four excellent reasons for this direction.
5) Eat slowly and noiselessly; don't "feed." Avoid talking when your
mouth is full. Take small mouthfuls, so that you may talk without giving
offense. Keep your lips closed when chewing. Never use your knife to
carry food to your mouth.
6) In the Lunch Room, as elsewhere, sit with your knees together and
with both of your feet on the floor, not on the rounds of your chairs.
7) Don't _throw_ paper and refuse into the receptacles provided; _drop_
it there.
8) Avoid boisterous talking and laughing. The tones of the voice
proclaim quite accurately the social background of the boy, the girl,
the man, the woman.
Her voice was ever soft,
Gentle, and low,--an excellent thing in woman.
--SHAKESPEARE.
9) Keep elbows and wraps off the Lunch Room tables; furthermore, do not
sit on the tables.
10) Leave your place in the Lunch Room tidy and spotless, with your
chair pushed up to the table.
11) Rise when an older person enters the room; remain standing until
your courtesy is acknowledged, or until the older person is seated.
