The poem The Busy Man' expresses so well my ideas of time. This poem tells us that if we want a favor done and want it done right away, don’t go to the man who has twenty-four hours on his hands, but go to the busy man who will always find a moment he can spare while the other man is forming an excuse. May you and I be like the busy man. Life will then be most worthwhile Principal Eight hours for work, eight hours for play, and eight hours for rest' is a maxim from an ancient book. Overdoing or underdoing any one of these can spoil a human life. The Bible says. Vet a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep; so shall thy poverty come. And on the other hand too many hours devoted to labor can be exhausting and even degrading. Nowadays the harnessing of power has enabled man to provide for his necessities without devoting most of his time and energy to labor; and the amount of free leisure time is becoming increasingly large. How will it be used? If our free hours are spent only in seeking physical thrills, excitement, new noise, this will affect our personalities and the civilization of which we are the component parts. If our leisure activities contribute toward making us finer human beings, that too will be apparent in us and in our world. I trust that we may be well-rounded, many-sided individuals pursuing our tastes and inclinations in many directions. But certainly that life is the poorer and its contribution to society is the weaker that does not devote itself in part at least to the cultivation of those arts that we think of when we say of anyone. He is a civilized human being. Time is but the stream I go a-fishmg in, wrote Thoreau. What sort of fish will you pull out of it? Vice Principal
