Not strange to say, the settling of this question holds in store more terror and useless wasting of time than any other. The majority of high school students graduate today with no conception of what vocation they intend to follow. And yet, in this age of specialization, this is not altogether surprising, there being so many occupations confronting a young person. Since the great majority of students, upon com- pletion of their high school curriculum, do not augment their knowledge by a college education, there falls upon the secondary school system the responsibility of assisting its scholars in choosing their life work, or at least supplying them with knowledge sufiicient to enable them to make their own choice. This end might be accomplished in one of three ways: first, by giving to all students a course in the choosing of one's life work, secondly, by devoting a regular period each week to speakers, preferably from outside the schoolg and third, by giving more complete courses in Industrial Arts. The course in selecting a life work would be con- ducted by an instructor who has faithfully and en- tirely studied the subject of vocational guidance. This class should meet, at least twice a week, the material for study consisting of talks and discus- sions about the various occupations open to young people today. Each v-ocation should be taken up to an extent great enough to obtain a clear idea of it and thus a student would have a small knowledge of each of many fields and would find himself greatly aided when he is obliged to make his selection. The second method is similar to the first, except that, instead of a trained instructor having charge of the class, authority would be granted to a chair- man, who mig-ht or might not be fully trained but sihoul-d have a working knowledge of the subject. To this chairman would fall the responsibility of se'ecting speakers for this group. These speakers should be chosen from the varied trades and oc- cupations outside the school, and should be brought before the group with the prime idea in mind of sharing their experiences and discussing the de- sirability of their occupation with the class. The purpose of the chairman in this class is not only to secure speakers but also to lead the class during any vacant periods. The third method is that of incorporating in our school system more complete courses in Industrial Arts. Since the age in which we live may be rightly called the maohine age, the training of men qualified to handle these machines should begin in the school shop. School and industry must supplement each other and a period of varied experience in the school shop before entering industry will prove of vital importance in the students march to advancement in the business world, Fred P. Barker, Director of Manual Arts in Brewer High Sohool, Brewer, lVlaine, gives the six aims of Industrial Ants as: 1. Development of honesty of effort, co-operation, and ability to reason and plan. 2. Development of thrift, accuracy and neatness. 3. Development of a reasonable standard of work- manship. 4. Development of dignity of labor, and apprecia- tion of art. 5. Training in the use of tools and machines. 6. Occupational guidance. From these it is easy to see that Industrial Arts fits a boy to pursue effectiveIy recognized profitable employment and this makes him a self-supporting citizen eventually. Also, the subject will surely prove a valuable factor in the choosing of a life work. If there might become instituted in the High Schools of Maine one or more of the above named systems, both the students at these schools and the industries these students enter would be greatly benefited. Since the first intention of a11y school is to fit its pupils for the game of life, more attention should be given to one of the most important ques- tions in that game: namely, What vocation shall I enter? If a student, upon graduation from high school, has this question settled in his own mind, he is able to start immediately to prepare for his call- ing and thus gain a start on his fellow who is still undecided. This should be one of the responsibilities upon the public school system a11d should be insti- tuted immediately. And, since Maine is one of the leading states of the Union, why shouldn't she make a contribution to the National education system by being one of the first to give her pupils courses in vocational guidance?
