The Golden Rule
PUBLISHED BY STUDENTS OF GOLDEN PUBLIC SCHOOL
The following article was writ-
ten by the most comical stu-
dent of the Senior class,
Thomas Galusha.
Back-Seat Driving
If you are a man and know
r ow to drive and have ever
c river, a car with a woman
riding in it. you know what
tack-seat driving is, You
should always listen to her
advice—she thinks. If ilt were-
r’i. for the wives of drivers rid-
i ig with them there would be
more wrecks, even if the woman
rev:; drove before.
If you haven’t driven m
town tv lore you should take
a woman with you and you wi i
get through all right. She
knows when to go through an
i ltersection and when to turn
;o she thinks).
But of course some men
1 now how h driie. And if
jou happen to be riding with a
back-seat driving man the best
thing to do is to dump him.
The best antidote for a woman
back-seat driver is to get some
ear plugs. If you were to tell
her to shut up you would
“-ever live over it—especially
f she is your wife,
