The School Council

While this book has been prepared particularly for the Home Council, it is well adapted for use in the school, either at chapel or at opening of classes. It is the sacred duty of every educator to keep fresh in the minds of the students that character is the primary object of all education. To that end we suggest the following program for use in school:

  1. Salute to the flag; after which sing one stanza of America or Star-Spangled Banner. (School standing.)
  2. The leader of chapel reads the daily lesson in this volume.
  3. The school standing and lifting the right hand in salute repeat in concert the following:

In gratitude to God, our Father, and in obedience to the laws of my state, I will try never to mistreat anyone as to his person or property, but will endeavor at all times to be kind and helpful, and thereby aim to become a worthy member of an ideal Nation of justice, health and happiness for all.
