Now the third road. Undoubtedly, this one would be easiest. The road is slippery, leads downhill, curves and disappears behind the barren mountains. Obviously, this is the easiest. It's easier to travel because it is slippery. You would proceed swiftly until you rounded the curveg after that, who knows? It might be a land of milk and honey, or it might be a desert. You could never climb back that slip- pery road. Here is your clue. Observe that the road leads DOWNHILL. There, High School Graduate, are your three opportunities. Will you take the first and, perhaps, win a life of success and hapiness? Will you take the second and be satisfied with a normal average life without the richness and fullness of further education? Or will you merely stride along on the slippery road, never knowing where it leads but always sure you'l1 get by anyway because it's slippery? Remember, you can't see beyond that curve and it leads downhill! No one will lead youg it's YOUR CHOICE. Some of us are going to try the first path. Which will you attempt? Life is a grindstone that polishes some people and grinds others. Editor in Chief Dick Shibles '52
