He also stated people of today responsibilty, and aliouid seek responsi- LtiiuUes. it was said that our nation is spectator on respon¬ sibility. The world needs more young people who will want to con¬ tribute to its progress. According to the speaker it is hard for one to know what he is going to be. As one thinks of the past, he docs uol use what he lias. But if we can make the best of our talents we will amount to something worthwhile. Everyone’s resolutions should be a purpose or eith¬ er a formal expression of opinion. Some people work for money instead of a certain philosophy. We should be able to render a service. The students were urged to study as never before be¬ cause the world is becoming more scientific. More money has been put into research within seven years. Comput¬ ers can act faster. There is no place in the world for unskilled workers. The computers are making jobs disappear by the thousands. Finally everyone should as¬ pire to lofty goals. Mr. Brown warned that if we dreamed, work should he the key to success. Work is of vital im¬ portance. All students should be in¬ spired to do the things that life requires.
