DR. CORNELIUS R. HAMMOND

At the age of ten when a lad begins his transition from a boy to a man, he gets a pocketknife. The pocketknife represents his new responsibility as a young man. It is a tool that is meant to help others, but it can be dangerous. A young lad will have the opportunity to become a trustworthy member of citizen. Once everyone sees how mature he is with his pocketknife, they will know he is a good lad. Now and again boys will be boys, but a young lad should know right from wrong. A pocketknife will help bring that sense of responsibility to him.

AGE 10

BOY SCOUT POCKETKNIFE

After a young lad is proven trustworthy with his pocketknife, he will be ready for the next step. When a lad turns twelve he will receive The Young Man’s Guide. It is a book to help the young lad into a devoted church going lad. It will help a lad with any questions about life. It was written by Father Lasance in the early 20th century and is considered a masterpiece. Selling over 100,000 copies in the last century.

George Washington Cologne is produced outside Mount Vernon, Virginia. The company The George Washington cologne was established back in 1874. It became one of the favored colognes of American men. This is due to its patriotic name and George Washington scent. Good hygiene is essential to American lads, who strive for the best.

Every young lad should graduate high school, and earn a diploma with flying colors. It is essential to his future.

HIGH SCHOOL DIPOLMA

An American lad one day turns into an American man. Being a productive member of society he will need to relax every once and a while. Smoking tobacco through a hand crafted pipe is one of the finest things a man, not a lad, can do. Once a lad reaches the age of eighteen he can smoke a pipe. This occasion marks his transition from a young man to a man. Most American men prefer a pipe with a straight shaft and a circular, wooden bowl. An American man unwinds with rich tobacco, and his pipe.
