What is its purpose? They all agreed that the aim of education is to iiveitheugood life, and by this meant ahappy,successful life.Such a life they said would contain seven essential elements which they named in the follow- ing order: , QU Health f2l Command of the fundamental subjects 133 Ethical character C41 Worthy home membership 153 Acceptance of civic responsibility Q63 Vocationalfitness 475 Worthy use of leisure time. Let us set them up as guiding signs on the road to right living. We ere living in a country Which offers us many opportunities to attain any or all of these seven major educa- tional objectives. ' He who lives the successful life must first set up goals and then plan to make the best of the many opportunities life offers. Eastern is a progressive school. It offers you many opportun- ties but it rests with you to take advantage of them. Plan a good life! Live it welll Happy, thrice happy, every one Who sees his labors well begun, ' - And not perplexed and multiplied By idle waiting for time and tide. . Longfellow. 1.Hfa
