TO-DAY
T.Tiy do we postpone until to-morrow
the laying of the groundwork which is
to mrJce of us eventually the kind of
people we wish to become? Aimless, pur
poseless days pass, and the arrival of
to-morrov; finds us unprepared for our
role in life. Personalities do not de
velop over night.
Growing up is one of the most per
plexing things with which we high school
students hp.ve to deal.To most of us it
just resolves itself into a period of
marking time until we are old enougji to
accomplish this or that thing, Vfe are
waiting perhaps for the magic to-morrow
when we will become, quite suddenly,the
grown-up individuals that v/e have wished
our future solves to be.
Are wo ambitious to write the best
sellers of to-morrow? Then the logical
step in that direction is our own best
effort on the preparation of that theme
due on Friday, Do we wish to become
the engineers who will design and build
the larger bridges and dams of the
world’s to-morrow? Then we high school
students need a larger interest in our
math classes. Now is the accepted time;
to-morrow may be too late. And there '
are many more instances from which
could be urged the necessity for care
ful, painstaking preparation during
our high school days.
We should not have to wait to become
the successful, clever people of our
dreams, but every day should bring us
a step nearer its accomplishment. Each
day has its valuable contribution to
our ultimate success in life. Let’s
take advantage of to-day.
