EDITORIALS DECISIONS According to Webster, “Deci sion is the power or habit of promptly and definitely deciding, especially on a course of action.” The need of making a decision comes to each of us many times a day. Sometimes these decisions are small and unim- portant; others may be of vital importance. In the case of grammar school pupils, big decisions are often made for them by parents or teachers. The course of study in school is already planned for them. In the high school, while a certain part of the course of study is planned for us, the remainder is elective. Here we have to decide, probably for the first time, what will be of the greatest value to each of us. This decision is the first im- portant stepping-stone on our way toward choosing a pro- fession. In our sports, we are often called upon to make quick and accurate decisions, and upon those decisions often rests the outcome of the games. Our personal life does not escape this need of making decisions, for upon those we make depends our characters. Therefore, let us all try to cultivate early in our lives, clear, quick, accurate thinking, as well as the careful weigh- ing of both sides of questions, to aid us in making wise deci- sions for ourselves.
