Gatsby recorded his schedule in the back of the book.

He opened it at the back cover and turned it around for me to see. On the last fly-leaf was printed the word SCHEDULE, and the date September 12, 1906. and underneath: Rise from bed … … … … … . 6.00 A.M. Dumbbell exercise and wall-scaling … … 6.15-6.30 ” Study electricity, etc … … … … 7.15-8.15 ” Work … … … … … … … 8.30-4.30 P.M. Baseball and sports … … … … . 4.30-5.00 ” Practice elocution, poise and how to attain it 5.00-6.00 ” Study needed inventions … … … . . 7.00-9.00 ” GENERAL RESOLVES No wasting time at Shafters or [a name, indecipherable] No more smokeing or chewing Bath every other day Read one improving book or magazine per week Save $5.00 {crossed out} $3.00 per week Be better to parents
