,The crossroad of ngrowing upn usuallyis represented by grad- uation from high school. After graduating the youth may further his education by going to college or he may go directly to work. But wherever he goes, whatever he does, he csrrles with him only the degreecM'cit1zensh1p developed preylous to his 21st birthday. After studying the words of such great men as Washington, Franklin, and Lincoln, the intellectual giants of their day, I have come to the conclusion that the answer to the Question pre- viously mentioned lies in preparing the youth for, and treating him as a true citizen of the United States. I am convinced that it is this everyday participation and training for citizenship that will develop the lenders we must hrve tomorrow! For the fate of our Nationas a democracy end the world as a civilization rests on keeping an unceaslng stream of leaders filling every walk of life' Joseph Perham '51 . I 2 A FOUNDf-XTION FOR THE FUTU,R,E. The life of man,as the building of a skyscraper, is laid out day by day and story upon story withthe careful precision used on all complex forms. The determining factor in whether or not the skyscraper will be a durable structureis the building foundation: the formative yearscn-youth of mankind is the foundation for fut- ure existence. Whether he will rise to majestic heights or tumble in ruin to the earth is unforseen, but it may be better predeter- mined if he lays a solid foundation on a basis of education. Several days ago a little child was heard to exclaim, Nwhen I grow up, I'm going to be a fire ch1ef,U and it is entirely possible that he may do so if he plans for the future through the medium of formal education. In a world of specialization, the multitude of professions and businesses are demanding better educated people. There is no place for the youth who cults as soon as he is old enough, or the one who stops at grammar school, and more and more we find the boy with the high school diploma being edged out by the man who is a college graduate. A8 long as our present systemis employed in trade, commerce, agriculture, etc., a large percentage of our population will of necessity remain menial laborers. This connotes a type of person generally lacking in education and is, in a great degree, true. A remedy for this situation is clearly reouired, as the ordinary working man certainly needs the restful diversification more easily obtained by the better educated man. Our invincible youth finds the boundaries of opportunity ln- discernible, with a scope of unlimited professionsg let them keep in mind that all this is attainable only if they choose a better education as a solid foundation to the future. . 1 Joyce Morey '50
