EDITORIAL OST Americans live their lives at a gallop. To make sure that they don't miss a trick, they rush hither and yon without a pause. Now, the tempo is going still higher, particularly for people like this graduating class. After a brief breathing space of several weeks, we enter upon three hectic years of concentrated education. If the present world situation holds, college will be followed by an even more concentrated dose of military training and finally actual service itself. To complicate matters further, as I already said, we will be continually on the lookout to see that nothing gets by us, and as a result we will miss some of less obvious, but twice as important things in life. The Chinaman who sits quietly in his back yard and contemplates the beauty of his garden usually doesn't suffer from frayed nerves which wear him away to nothing. Also he derives much deeper pleasure than most double features can give. Admittedly, in times such as these no one can slow up on his job, but he can and should slow up in between times. VVhat you miss in life, you miss be- cause you skim over it and not because you don't get there in time. 5
