I have this book I found at a thrift shop years ago, it's called Christian Boys Problems...it was probably published in the 1940's.

Here are a few gems:

"When you approach that gate that says MEN WANTED, unless you have kept your body pure and clean, they will say 'no weaklings need apply here'"

"You will not marry  a cigarette smoking girl, hence you should not pal with one, else she will start you on this habit"

"that's right, christian fellow. tell your mother to be sure to use enriched flour!"

"The Christian Boy's Code:

My girl friends...
I pledge sincerely that i shall...
seek only girl pals who are Christian...
treat each girl as i want my sister treated...
respect her body as God's temple...
hold high moral code of honor....
not lower myself to the intimacies of petting...
chum with her in healthy recreations....
keep myself as pure as I want the girl to be who later shall be my life's companion...

Signed................................"
