REGULATIONS
COVER PUPILS
ON SCHOOL BUSES
Parents of children who are
riding the school buses for the
first time this year are informed
that the Territorial Board of Edu
cation has set up rules and regu
lations for pupils riding school
buses. For the information of
those pupils and parents who are
not aware of these rules, they
are reprinted below:
The driver is in full charge of
the bus and pupils. Pupils must
obey the driver promptly and
willingly.
Pupils must obey the orders
of the School Safety Patrol Bus
Monitors, if a School Bus Safety
Patrol is in operation.
Each pupil may be assigned a
seat in which he will be seated
at all times unless permission to
change is given by the School
Principal and/or Driver.
Outside of ordinary conversa
tion classroom conduct must be
observed.
Pupils are to assist in keeping
the bus clean by keeping their
waste paper off the floor. Pupils
must also refrain from throwing
refuse out of the windows.
No pupil shall open a window
on the school bus without first
getting permission from the
school bus driver.
No pupil shall at any time ex
tend his or her head, hands, arms
or legs out of the windows
whether school bus is in motion
or standing.
Pupils are to remain seated
while bus is in motion and are
not to get on or off the bus until
bus has come to a full stop.
Pupils must leave the bus in
an orderly manner and must
obey the orders of the driver or
the School Safety Patrolman on
bus duty. They MXJST NOT cross
the highway until given consent
by the school bus driver or the
school safety patrolman.
Pupils must cross the highway
ONLY in front of the school bus.
Pupils must not stand or play
in the roadway while waiting for
the bus.
Pupils who have to walk for
some distance along the highway
to the bus loading zone must
^walk on the left-hand side fac
ing the oncoming traffic. This
will also apply to pupils leaving
the bus loading zone in the eve
ning.
Pupils must not at any time
ride on the outside of the bus.
Pupils must see that they have
nothing in their possession that
may cause injury to another,
such as sticks, any type of fire
arms, straps or pins extending
from their clothing.
Each pupil must see that his
books and personal belongings
are kept out of the aisles.
No pupil shall sit in the driv
er’s seat, nor shall any pupil sit
to the left nor the right of the
driver interfering with him in
any manner.
Pupils must be on time. The
bus cannot wait for those who
are not at the bus stop at the
time indicated on the schedule.
Pupils must avoid crowding
and disturbing others.
Pupils will not in any manner
damage the school buses.
Pupils will not use or open the
emergency doors at any time.
Only in an emergency.
Pupils must remember that
riding the bus is a privilege. If
a pupil’s conduct is such that the
health, safety, comfort, or well
being of others is jeopardized,
the privilege of riding the bus

Wouldn’t Yon
Our title to the Kingdom is
based on our obedienoe to the
Righteousness and conformity to
the principles as set forth in the
Sermon on the Mount. As our
Lord concluded His sermon, He
brings us before the judgment
seat. We should habitually judge
ourselves as in the searching
light of eternity.
By true obedience to the Will
of God we prove title to the
Kingdom. That will is embodied
in the “Sayings of Jesus” Jesus
has ever been a Revealer of the
Father. Profession is no substi
tute for obedience. Talking
Christ, His merits, His atonement,
His Righteousness, while the
person is not conformed to His
Word and Spirit, is none other
than self-deception. Everything
short of doing the Will of Christ
is merely saying, “Lord, Lord”.
Zeal in the cause of religion is
no substitute for religion. Earn
estness is not enough. Workers
if iniquity may prophesy. True
prophesy came from Balaam.
Also from Caiaphas. A finger
board points out a road it never
travels. False hopes are delusive,,
sand often looks like rock.
Wouldn’t you rather be sure
that your Life-building is found
ed on the Rock of Ages? Examine
the Beatitudes again. Compare
yourself with these “Sayings of
Jesus” Are you measured to.
