We bid him Be A Good Boy; Study; and
Be Nearly Perfect. On the other hand,
Learn Sportmanship; Have Fun ; Don’t Give a Hang
When Things Go Wrong; and Be One of the Gang .
It’s evident we haven’t, up to now,
Explained to our small seven-year old how
A fellow can behave himself and get
His lessons, and still not be Teacher’s Pet!
