We are now at the end of another year. As we look back wc can. see how we have failed to grasp some opportunities that have presented themselves to us: how we have planned on doing better work but have never fulfilled these plans. As schoolmates we have had many pleasant times together, but these times are now of the past, they are now mem cries of things that have been. During our stay here at Bethel Academy we have possibly met friends that shall never be forgotten altho we arc now parting, never to meet again, or even hear their names mentioned. These days have been days that we are not now able to fully appreciate. Cutting Across. We are so prone to take the shortest way heme, to work, when we are late, to win favor, when we forget ourselves. never realizing that every corner that we cut across we are not only tres- passing but we are making our own sphere smaller, our minds narrower, our capacity for a larger scope impossible. If it is a. large boulder that we find in our way by all means remove it but if it is a beautiful flowerbed that we are walking over, stop, think, we are stepping on flowers, we are putting our rough heel on them, killing them. How often we do the same with our conscience when it troubles us. We step on it in order to gain our object sooner (we think) than by following the true course around the corner—and gain whatever wo may, honestly. Be On Time. That is one of the habits that everyone should strive to attain. Get. it now and keep it; it’s worth more than most of us realize. On time lor your recitations, on time to your work, on time in filling your dates: always there when you are supposed to be there and the world Cont. on page S4.
