Grace Modesty often more than prid Class History Stupefied! Yes, that was the way we entered L. H. S. on the first morning of Sept. 2, IS33. A high school experience was unknown to us, but now we were get- ting our fiist taste of it: when the seniors, sensing our bewilderment, directed us to our respective class rooms. We were also dumbfounded and amazed at the im- mensity of the building and the numerous rooms. The teachers also looked more or less severe as we met their serious gazes. After that trying expeiience of the first dnv we settled down to the daily routine of the school. Although it was a long time before we held our first freshman meeting for the purpose of electing officers for the year, the time finally came, and Frank Silver was chosen president. His assistants were Betty Rauch, vice president, and Virginia Behrens, secretary-treasurer. These officers conducted the affairs of the class in a very creditable manner. The days seemed to literally fly and many of the classes were having various so- cial activities, such as dances, partes, weiner roasts, etc., and before we were aware the end of the year was fast approaching. Accordingly plans were laid for the long vacation that was soon to be a realization. On Sept. 10, 1934 we found ourselves in the auditorium of our high school. This time we are here as Sophomores. During the long vacation we had acquired a little more dignity. We could now apprecate the feeling of the incoming Freshman class. Wo soon organized and again Frank Silver was chosen, to help him were Virginia Behrens as vice president and Martha Smith, secretary-treasurer. 'Ihe most important event of the year was stunt night” which came on Nov. 23. At this event, anyone who so desired could display his or her talent. Many Sopho- mores participated. One act plays, songs, dances and instrumental music were among tho attractions offered. We were all terrified when it was announced there would be mid-year examin- ations. We had almost forgotten about them since these examinations had not been given for several years. It was a sad affair for all. It would mean that we would have to spend extra evenings at home studying for these tests. The exams proved to he easy as compared with some of the regular tests. Up until the last month of school our class had had no social gatherings. On May 24, the class weiner rorst proved to bo quite a success. It was held at Cr slal Springs under the supervision of Mr. and Mrs. Trick. This event brought to a close another school year and a long desired vacation. Although we had looked forward to this vacation we were glad to get back to school on Sept. 3. We were now Juniors. Our attitude was now closely watched by the underclassmen. Emery Smock was chosen president, with Frank Silver as vice president, Jane Hoehn as secretary and Robert Reel as treasurer. Social activities for the year included a clrss picnic on Oct. 28, the dinnei-dance at Mellman's Inn. All in all it was a rather successful year for the class of 1937 It was active in scholarship tesis, dramatics and athletics. The most outstanding event was the Junior-Senior banquet held on May 22. A large crowd, together, the many brilliant colors, made it a night long to be remembered. The Junior play. “Mary's Ankle, closed the year’s activities. The play was put on under the direc- tion of Mr. Johnson. On Sept. 8. we again entered high school for our last year. In many ways this was to be the most important year of our school experience. Frank Silver was elected president, with Carl Valentine, vice president, Jane Hoehn. secretary and Koss Doolittle treasurer. Class Will We, the members of the Lancaster High School of 1937, in the year or our Lord, do hereby testify, being in our right mind, or as near that stage as it is possible and realizing that we have reached tihat important stage in our life where we find it both necessary and proper before taking our next step onward to more celestial spheres (due to our ambitious spirit), and being conscious and painfully aware that on June 3, 1937, we shall part from our beloved High School, do hereby declare this our last Will and Testament, and dispose of our so-called property in the manner lollowing: ARTICLE I: To our teachers we bequeath our sincerest gratitude and good wishes and the hope, that even though we were a difficult task during these four years of their experience with us, they will always remember the Class of '37. ARTICE II: To the Juniors we leave our superiority complexes, our compacity for vast knowledge and our dignity, knowing that they will use these things to theii greatest advantage. ARTICLE III: To the Sophomores we bequeath you, the odor of that strange and mysterious science, chemistry. (We do hope that the roof remains another year). ARTICLE IV: To the Freshmen we will, what little common sense has sifted through the Juniors, hoping it to be used in great care. ARTICLE V: To the forthcoming Class of 1941, we leave, the four happiest years with fellow classmates and teachers.

(p) Jane Curry leaves her jolliness and her smile to Alice Wolfe. ARTICE VII: We, who have learned to know and respedt Mr. Crooks, appoint him our sole executor, of our last Will and Testament. In witness whereof, we have set unto our hands, this the twenty-fourth day of March, in the year of our Lord One Thousand Nine Hundred and Thirty-Seven. June Clawson. There were various social activities held during the year. Probably the one outstanding event of the year was the Junior-Senior banquet. In one way it was just a little different from the one held last year. To many of those attending it meant the finish for them of the social activities of school. The Senior play “New Fires’’ given on April 15, under the direction of Miss Yauger proved to be one of the best plays given in long time. Our goal was now in sight. Even our class seemed a little more solemn than usual. We attended the baccalaureate on Sunday evening. May 30. With this over commencement seemed the end of everything. It meant that friendships f, rnud dui. ing the four yeais might be broken, our associates would be scattered. The day foi commencement brought the entire class together as a group. The diplomas were presented to us by the President of the Board of Education, Dr. James Lantz. The Alumni Banquet held on Thursday evening officially closed the school year for the class of 1937. Although our high school days arc over, we are looking for- ward to next year when we will again have the opportunity to renew our acquaint- ances. With this the Class of 1937 bids adieu to 1« H. S. - Lorrettu Finley. Vic got on one of the rolling board-walks and soon found heiself in front of Rita Christian's beauty shop. In the shade of the shop Raymond Zcislcr and Hob Smith were having an argument. Kay: Well 1 told Virginia not to get her hair lixed So fancy. J hate all those doodads. Besides, there’s no use in wasting our money like that,” Hob: “Oh, 1 don't know, Ray. The women seem to like to be all lixed up.” Vic hurriedly entered the «hop and was greeted enthusiastically by Mrs. Zeisler (Virginia Behrens), Mrs. Kauffman (Marilyn Miller) and Mary Ellen Mowry. Isabel Woods, Avonell Tobin, and Helen Martin were busy operating the various machines in the shop and giving advice to the customers about their beauty prob- lems. Rita herself was suggesting a new style of hair dress to Naomi Langiy. Mickey Solis and Genevieve Riffle were having manicures given them by Mabel Straiter and Lucille Mondhank. While Vic was in the beauty shop, Ruth and Frances decided to see a show in the new theatre, built expressly for the exposition by John Rowe, now happily mar- ried to his “Ruth.” John showed three dimensional films in color. Later he hopes to install a machine to produce odors to go with the picture. As the two girls entered they saw Ethel Tigncr and Rathaleen Shively silting together. Not far from them wore Betty Wagner, Katherine Tiller, Thelma Sage� and Pauline Roush. The lights went off and the news reel flashed on the screen. First were seen Carl Valentine and his wife. Judith Riddle, saiu to be the happiest couple on the American stage. They were resting between plays at their home in Connecticut. The next scene showed John Huston receiving the Nobel prize in physics. To the right oi him stood his assistant and mend, James Knight. Pictures ol the big nood of tne Mississippi River were projected on the screen. Ray j nepper, Gerald Kigcr, Grover Smith and i-iarold Run were marooned on top ol a large building, but were finally rescued. Dr. Ralph Macciacken was called to assist in caring lor the sick in the Hood district. One wonders whereher, with his height, he wasn't set to work rescuing people from high places. The camera then Hashed to New tors, where Helen Robinson, famos opera star, and her husband, Emery Smeek, weie being greeted by photographers. Helen hau just completed a successiul tour of Europe. Frances, quiet until now, whispeis: “isn't ‘Dutch’ in the insurance with Neil Mc- Laughlin ' Ruth: “1 believe that's right at least he has been very successful.” Frances: “Look, there’s Floyd Bell on the screen. He has a big political job now.” Ruth: Now some photographers are interviewing Helen Bchieick. What’s that caption oh, ‘Famous World Traveler and Authority on French History Marries Frenchmen.' No wonder she sent word that she wouldn't be back in lime for our reunion.” Frances: “Here’s the picture at last. I’m so glad they’re showing a good one today. I love to watch Ruby Fair act. She reminds me ol Zazu Pitts. And then we are going to see Edith Arnold, loo.” When the picture was ended the girls joined Vic at the “Light House, a restaur- ant run by Ruth Mertz and Betty Willis. Vic, turning to Ruth: “You should have been at the beauty shop with me. Rita turned on the television and we enjoyed a pro- gram sponsored by the Better Products Dairy owned by Dick McClellan. Mary Bur- ton tap danced, and her feet went so fast we could scarcely sec them. They had a now number, too. The performers called themselves the Four Minute Men. All of them were from our class Jim Biller, Roger Eaton, Ralph Roby and Billy Loving. Frances: “No wonder we saw all those people standing around a television set. 1 recognized Anna Love, Ruth Sicbleton and Mabel Straits standing there, but of course. I didn't know what the attraction was.” Ruth: “1 thought 1 saw Betty Mathias and Eileen Tipple, too.” Frances: “Now that we’re here, why don’t we go thru (he model house furnished by the Oberdorfer and Hickson Company. They say that Virginia and Alice Mae have exquisite taste. So far, the only thing that has gone wrong is that Alice Mae absent nindedly hung a rug over a window. Mary Catherine Eckert showed her friends through the home which was well decorated and had all the modern appliances. Betty Jane Wright showed what the young rnistrecs of such a home should choose for wearing in the afternoons. Betty had become famous as a model for clothes for the slender figure. She particularly liked to model dresses designed by Martha Smith in her exclusive shop in New York. Eileen Nichols, who assisted Martha, also showed a more sophisticated frock, mod- eled by Mean Rose. To complete the equipment of the model house was a stunning car from the Class Prophecy Hear ye, hear ye! Gather near and hear what the fates have in store for us, the Class of 1937. We'll turn the clock ahead the paltry amount of ten years and see. It is 1947 and there is a huge exposition being held just outside of Columous to celebrated the one hundred and forty-fifth anniversary ol Ohio’s admission to the Union. The exposition is housed within a huge dome of glass blocks. Jim Miller won the competition in the designing •! the mammoth glass palace. A group of judges from all over the state which included Vaughn Hedges and Robert Fletcher, unanimously agreed that his were the best plans submitted. Air-condition- ing was installed by Charles Gossett, and clctricity was put in by the Buchman and Reel Company. Kuth Ely and Viola Valentine, both married now, enter thiougn me gates after having bought their tickets from Dan Fast, Ruth: “It certainly is good to get in here where its tool after all Ithat heat. My house is like a bakeoven.” Vic: Heavens, yes. Say is that Dale Snokc over there by that big refresh- ment stand? Ruth: “Yes, didn’t you know that he owned it? There are Harry Reef and Ralph Reed waiting on trade, too. Vic: I'm so glad our class decided to have its tenth anniversary reunion here. It’s so nice no Hies, no mosquitoes, iney say that Homer 1 amove discovered some way of getting rid of those pests.” Ruth: I heard that, too. Oh, there’s Jane Curry; let’s go over and speak to her. She had the kindergarten class at Fast School this year. Vic: “Hello, jane. How’s everything with you? Are you glad that school is out for the year? Jane: I’m quite fine, but, you know, I rather miss seeing all my little boys and girls. They uo the most amusing things sometimes. Do you remember Ken Doolit- iiv-.’ Wen, his Utile boy was in my class and tommy is ngfu at mat singe wnon ne likes to boast a bit and tell stories. One day he proudly announced, ‘My great grandfather was in the Civil War and he was so brave that he didn’t even cry when his head was shot off. And if you don't believe me, ask my Daddy, ’cause that’s what he told me! ' uulh: “just a chip off the old block, i guess, liy the way, Jane, aren’ there several of our class teaching now? Jane: Let’s sec Louise Bohlmnn has the first grade, Joan Dauglherty and Anumae Marlin have two of the higher grades and Thelma Harris is in chaige of uhysical education. Opal Alvis is secretary to the principal, so she's contented with eoucauon. ana inert- aie joan Parks, who is the nead oil ihe language department in a big school in Dayton, and Evelyn Rocson who is in the same school with a position similar to that of Thelma. Vic: (glancing at her watch) We’ll have to run along now, Jane, but do tell us more at the banquet tonight. I have an appointment at the hairdressers. Ruth: You have a few minutes yet. Why not stop at the Conrad Kelier pharmacy and gel a coke. They entered the drug store and were greeted by the proprietors, for both Ralph and George were eager to please. In a nearby booth sat i ucille Engle, Helen Wiciy, nuin weaver and Kuih l enz sipping rciresnmg arir.Ks mini attractive con- tainers. Vic bought a paper and began to read from the society page, edited by Helen koon: Miss Ruth Myers was a charming hostess to her card club Wednesday after- noon: Ivet’s see . . . Helen Hooker, Ruth Wiggins. Norma Anderson, and Dorothy McClecry were there and so was Ruby Smith.” She turned the page and begun to read Ted Young’s spicy column. Oh, that reminds me. some tune ago 1 icati in Ted’s column something about Martha Ferguson and Ted mentioned her married name. Part of the name was blotted out and all that 1 could sec was ’Ri '. Then 1 was still puzzled because I didn't know which one she finally married. Ruth I'm surprised that you didn’t know. It was Ri ”, but she got no furher for just then who should walk in but Frances Keck, simply bursting with news. Frances: Have you heard the news! Harold Frasure was dynamiting on his farm and something went wrong the fuse went off too quickly or something! Ruth; Heavens! Was he hurt. Frances: No, luckily he wasn’t, although a stone knocked off his hat. No one is quite sure what happened. They say it couldn't have been the dynamite because it was R. Johnson’s best quality. Vic: “Sorry 1 have to leave, but 1 must or I’ll be late. See you later.” Senior Index OPAL ALVIS Commercial Course Home Ec. Club. NORMA ANDERSON Commercial Course Home Ec. Club.

Alterd Fetters was taxing down names of those who wished to give the car a trial. Kalpn Walton, Alfred Ulvey, Karl Evans and William Picvost willingly submitted their names. The three girls left the home and walked through numerous exhibits. A huge typewriter advertising the machines sold by Kenneth Joseph caught their eye. Frances turning to the others: Tnat reminds me; did you know that Madaline Kellei has started a new business school? Dorothy Martin and Violet Loo are leaching there.'' Kuth: Our commercial students certainly did well for themselves. Edna Peters had a marvelous position betore she was married. Of course, any one with her dimples and personality wouldn’t stay unmarried long.” Vic: The commercial students aren’t the only ones who succeeded. Hetty Kauch has a job as buyer in a big store. Even though she has a large salary, the the boss's son saves her lunch money and frequently lakes her out at night. At least thats what 1 hear from girls who are working in the same store. Evelyn Lutz wrote that and so did Naomi Plank and Anna Cupp.’ Frances: Hasn't couella Murphy been posing lor advertising for that store? 1 knew she got into photographic work as a model. Kuth: She says she got her start in Lancaster. You remember when she posed eating hot cakes and sirup while a newspaper man photographed her. Vic: Excuse me for interrupting, but 1 heard that June Clawson was injured in an accident. You've kept in touch with her, Kuth, what about it? Kuth: “i he was hurt. About a month ago she was Hying back to New York to resume her work as a commercial artist. She was helped on the plane by Hob Heckwith who immediately sat down to write her some nonsense on the ticket she had given him. Joe Hurnett, Hob's co-pilot, was as usual a little late, and in his eifort to make up for lost tune he started up with a jerk, hit a large rock, and crushed the. right wing ol the plane. June wasn’t securely fastened and she fell £ nd broke her leg. Wayne Keynolds, Kobert Kooker, Charles Starowesky and Earl KuH lan from their seals to assist her so that Irene Pettit, the hostess, had dihicully in reaching hei. Harold Friend and Bob Burberry rushed her to the hospital where Bill Jasper and Vaughn Valentine quickly set her broken bones. 1 guess June dually lealized her ambition of being hurt seriously enough to be taken to the hospital. While she was there, Loretta Finley and Kuth Walter, surgical nurses, dropped in to see her. Agnes Selders is superintendent of the nurses and Betty Jane Lindsey had chaige of the lloor where June was, so she had a rather pleasant time ol it. She is at home now. but, of course, she’s not able to come to the banquet.” Frances: It’s a shame she can’t come; we ll miss hei'.- Heavens, do you know what time it is. I’ll have to rush home and get ready.” letter that evening when it is almost time to begin, Vernon Collins, Willard Lutz and James Ditto walk quickly in and take their placets. At one end of the table sit Paul l eohner and Walter Yates. At the last moment Jane Hoehn rushes in and sits beside Frank Silver who is still the head of his class. Jane is wearing a beautifui wedding ring given her several years before by her husband whom we remembei a..1 a dark haired boy from our own illustrious class. Across the table from Jane sits two athletic coaches, Eugene Wentz and Richard Poweis. Farther down the line sitting beside Orla Morehart, is Ktissel Kline who has struck it rich in the Oklahoma oil fields. Walter Yates and Lloyd Keynolds exchange a good joke with Kaymond Cunning- ham and Jack Michael. Dorothy Docter remarks to Kuth Hedges that the food is ex- cellent. Martha Jones and Grace Turner comment on the attractive gowns worn by Edna Keister and Velma Decter. Esther Graf opens her attractive scarlet and grey program and says to her dinner companion: “No wonder these decorations took so nice. 1 see that they were put up by Eugene Miller, the chairman of the decorating committee. Junior Kiser, and Newel! Westenberger. Nevin Biblcr is chairman of the program committee. We’re going to have a speech by Frank Silver, a toast by John Bruney, and a short talk by Caroline Dolson. Best of all, Kenneth Carpenter and his nationally known band aie going to play for us until two o'clock. Midnight of the same evening. Burning the midnight oil and the effigy of Henri- etta Kirn for making false prophecies. Henrietta Kirn. LUCILLE ENGLE General Course RUTH ETY Commercial Course Hobby Club. 4. Home Ec. Club.

MILLER— A heavy backfield man who went through the line for many gains. The Purple and Gold will miss Clifford very much next year. JULIAN— Leory. whose strong build and quickness made him a good guard, will be a prominent candidate for that position next fall. VALENTINE— Vaughn filled his position very well. He was a good receiver and gained a number of yards for the team. Valentine leaves us this year. COLE— Captain ‘‘Lub Cole played the position of left tackle exceed- ingly well. We have heard from our opponents who have play- ed opposite him. that he is one of the cleanest players they have ever played against. Jim is only a Junior and we can ex- pect a lot from him next year. WRIGHT— Squack a quarterback made several outstanding plays. The Purple and Gold gained many yards by his accurate passes. Fred has also an excellent kick. With a little more training he should be one of the best kickers In the Central Ohio League. It looks like a good football future, Fred. Keep up the good work. WENTZ— Gene, a light Inn dependable guard who showed up very well in every game. 11c was through the opponents line many times throwing them for a loss. The Purple and Gold loses Gene this year. SMITH— Bob. an outstanding backfiehl man who made many long gains that brought him much praise from every one. He will be missed for his defensive ability next year. Don. a dependable blocker, will no doubt be an important fac- tor in the success of the team next year. LFTZ— Center for The Purple ami Gold. Willard was a very capable center and a very good blocker. The team will lose him this year. A sqockv tackle that fitted perfectly in many plays, both of- fense and defense. Dick earned all the credit given him for his work for The Purple ami Gold. POWERS— Dick, a hard hitting tackle, played Ills position very well both on offense and defense. RAMSEY— Harold, u very shifty imurterback. made many long «alus and Ids passing was very accurate. With two years ahead of him, we are sure he will be an outstanding player In the near future. BRADFORD— John, the other of the touchdown twins, has also been ft reg- ular for two years. He played his position as halfback very well. During one of The Purple and Gold's big games, John was injured and could not play anymore football for that seas- on. We'll be looking for you next fall. John. DOOLITTLE— Pete's outstanding end plays brought him many cheers es- pecially from the girls. He was a valuable man and will be missed greatly next fall. JASPER— Bill a dependable end, gained many yards for the Purple and Gold. The team will lose Bill this year. JOHNSON— Although Bob saw little service Ids good line work will be missed very much next year. LITTER ELL— George stopped many drives through Ids section of the line. Next year he will be a valuable asset to The Purple and Gold. BRADFORD— Bob. one of the touchdown twins, has been a regular for The Purple and Gold for two years. Me made many long passes and was always fighting to the last minute of the game. Bob will be a very valuable man next year, i’ LOVER— The team's heavy-weight stopped many of the opponent's car- ries usually throwing them for a loss. His large build will be a valuable asset to The Pulplc and Gold next year. REEF— Harry, a light but dependable center was also a good blocker. Ills good work will be missed next year. HUGHEY— A heavy fullback, who backed up his line very well on defense and went through for frequent gains on the offense. Garland will be missed very much next year.

BOB SMITH—Guard. Senior Bob worked well on both offense and defense. He will be missed very much next year. HAROLD RUFF—Forward, Senior Harold was probably the best ball handler on the squad. As this was his last honorable year on The Purple and Gold’s team, his position will be a hard place to fill next year.

Candid Catches CALENDAR SEPTEMBER “Ready for school?”—“Have a nice vacation?”—“I sure hate to start in again!” All old and new quotations heard on the first day of school. The poor freshman— lost, bewildered et scared. Tennis tournaments started, football started, romance started and the Jr. Hi-Y started the social whirl with a fish fry out at Crystal Springs—Oh, yes, excuses started also. Everyone, teachers, students and freshmen all made an attempt for a good impression for they always count. OCTOBER Three cheers for the month of falling leaves and nippy nights! The events of this auspicious month are divided into two parts, the first of these may be called class activities, and the second in the language of the sport world, is called football. Nothing much can be said of our football record but as a freshman said—“We had the muddiest end of the field.” Our new hero is Admiral Byrd—that uniform! Fair week (were you broke too?) Thrift Club Ball, the Jr. Party out at the old school house, concluded this frosty month. NOVEMBER Pumpkin pie, Amateur Night, and Educational Week—these were the features of the third month of school. Open House was something new—.School at night wouldn’t be so bad—Armistice—no school—French Play was given—the last foot- ball game, this month was not near so exciting. Maybe we were saving for Decem- ber. Oh my—I almost forgot—Frank Silver and Ruth Ety are THE personality winners of Lancaster High School. DECEMBER Santa Clause—our first thought of this holly month. The operetta, “Miss Cherry Blossom,” was presented, The Spanish Club Dance at Avondale, the huge success of the Jr. Athletic Club party, the first coming basketball game, an impres- sive Xmas program by Mr. Keller, a weeks vacation, the Xmas tree in the hall, eight periods, thoughts of coming exams, filled the month of December to a brim. JANUARY Happy New-Year! This is the time to make resolutions but before the 31st we usually find out it is muoh easier to break them. The first freshman party was held. (We heard they all arrived safely.) Exams, that annual worry, came upon us before we knew it. The gym has acquired ping pong tables, and courts for shuffle-board. That fateful game with St. Mary’s took place! Can we ever get over it? The boys gave their frank opinion of the girls. It’s a wonder they even 9peak to us. Oh yes, Joe Burnett’s birthday was a highlight in this rainy month. It rained almost every day and can one ever forget those terrible flood scenes?

We even rated a day’s vacation on Washington’s. “Huckleberry Finn was this years Dramasquer’s Play. Everything went smoothly until Ginny” Behrens lost her hair! Well, we redeemed ourselves again by winning the return game of Saint Mary’s. We entered the tournament but bad luck prevailed over us. Not much happened in this short month, probably everyone was getting breath for the last months of school. MARCH The lion visited us in this month, but the lamb peeked in once in a while and made us feel the effects of “Spring Fever.” Basketball over, sports are at a “lag” but baseball equipment was brought. The Senior Play cast was chosen. Spanish Club presented their play “Plucking the Turkey,” (it was rumored that Miss Wolfe wrote it.) Cooking School occupied the stage for a week. Some naughty senior boys were accused of taking some peanuts from the kitchen. Tsch! ’tsch! APRIL The weather always warms up in April—if that matters any. Let’s see, look- ing into this month we see the Junior Dance the seventh. The annual Senior Play was New Fires. John Huston and Henrietta Kirn showed the county what’s what in the senior tests. Arbor Day—Graduation slowly creeping upon us—Everything grew.—the buds, flowers, freshmen, and even the moustaches seemed to flourish during this bonny month. Music festival was also held. MAY Our last month—Every year the members of the Senior Class are subjected to the same cares and obligations as every senior before him. Announcements, Junior-Senior banquet. Junior Prom, Senior Dance, and State tests, take the limelight. We had a style and art exhibit at the auditorium, also a Hobby Fair was going on. This was something new. Class night was a last informal get-together to hear the Prophecy, history and the will. Studies were neglected but the teach- ers understood—a little. JUNE June 1st beholds the Junior Play—here’s to a grand success! Commencement Day the 3rd when the much cherished “Sheep-skin is placed in the outstretched hands of the waiting student.

G Rather is it the result of education, training, foresight, en- ergy ambition, initiative, industry, and other individual traits. A good basic education; specialized training in some defi- nite field of endeavor; a fixed goal of accomplishment; prepar- ing and saving for the rainy day, and THE opportunities that come sooner or later: these things will continue to spell SECURITY in the future as they have in the past. BUSINESS, by a comfortable margin, offers one of the largest attractive fields of social security to those young peo- ple willing to test their talents against the needs of society.
