East High School - Sunrise Yearbook (Erie, PA)

Seniors In former years when graduation time drew near, it was a pleasure to select boys and girls from the senior class and place them in positions in the city. Often we found positions for a large part of the class. During recent times we have not received any requests. We can easily understand, then, how hard it is for even high school graduates to get employment. Sometimes they remain idle for a long time before any avenue is opened to them. What to do during the waiting period is a problem. Many of our graduates return to school to continue their work. This is surely better than idleness. If you cannot go away to school, if you cannot get the cash to enter the freshman class at Pitt, you can at least return to East and make some progress. You will not be going backward. In the early history of our country, it was a problem to secure a bit of leisure. All things cultural suffered for the want of a bit of rest from hard toil. Today conditions are so different. Many people have an overdose of leisure, and no work. Hard work kept the people ignorant and uncultured, but idleness brings more woes which we will not discuss. Our caution to you young men and women is keep busy. Continue to go forward. Get more training and be ready. When the clouds roll away and the country again becomes busy and happy, you will advance more rapidly because you did not quit but kept on working and learning. Don’t get discouraged. You have our best wishes. J. W. Ray 191
