The Joy of Living What has our few years in college taught us? Of course the prescribed work we have had, and the elective courses we have chosen have taught us some things worth while. But, after all are these the things that will mean most to us? No, we believe not. Our four years here have taught us joy of just plain living. Of course we were glad to be alive before but we did not know how to live in order to get the most joy out of life—Do you know how? The answer is SERVICE. We have labored hard; and for what end? In order that we may go forth into the world in service. We are prepared to begin a career, the greatest career of all—that of making one hundred per cent Americans of our pupils. We are beginning the huge task of making boys and girls into worth while men and women. Is there a greater service for mankind, for America, for ourselves? Is not this then the plain joy in being alive and being able to do those things? The doctor has his mission in life, the preacher his, and the lawyer his niche to fill. These are the three professions we hear most about. Of all these, the doctor gets most joy out of living because he most nearly approaches the goal of service. The teacher has more joy in living than either because he has gone beyond the realm of these three in work for others. He has reached into the heart of childhood—that is the joy of just plain living. —Mary Elsie White Page Twenty-two
