EDITORIAL The first topic of conversation at the beginning of term seems always to revolve around the holidays-what We did and the fun we had. Judging from the talk that developed this year, the summer of leisure is disappearing, and its place is being taken by a phenomenon known as the summer job . This year, possibly more than ever, a large majority of us took up some sort of Work, and T.C.S. boys were engaged in many varied fields, from forest ranging

2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD to teaching car driving. Recently boys have begun to realize the value of using the summer holidays to real ad- vantage, for the summer job is as much a part of a boy's education as his academic Work. For one thing, it helps the boy to find out the type of work he really likes and is suited for. Taking a variety of jobs each summer gives one a chance to discover his real preferences under the test of first-hand experience. If a boy has already chosen a vocation, he can take a line of work connected With it. A budding chemical engineer might try Working in the labs of a chemical refining plant, and thus, when he finally embarks upon his career, he will have some practical experience behind him. Then too, after leaving the relatively isolated life at school, We learn how the other half lives. When we work on the farm, we learn for the first time how the farmer thinks, feels and acts. For the first time We un-- derstand him. When we Work in a factory, we see how the industrial worker lives from day to day. Thus, by taking different jobs each summer, We get a broader view of modern society, with its many complications. We also learn to get along with people in different walks of life, besides those of our own little group. This, one might add, is an essential to world harmony. Then too, there is the fact that such work, besides being a source of handy cash, helps to provide a fund for expenses such as education. These days, Working one's way through college is the accepted thing to do. It also helps us realize the value of dollars and cents, measured out in terms of hours sweated out in a hot steaming hay field, or a boiling factory. We find that money takes a long time to earn but a very short time to spend. Besides its re- munerative value, a job such as forest ranging or farming is a healthy outdoor life and sends us back to school hale and healthy. and in good condition for football!
