We think our records are placed away in a vault never to be seen again' If the only record we made was on card board,there would be some truth to this. But there is a record made more Per' manent than card-board records. It is 21 I'e00I'C1 made 011 the mind. This record is not hidden. You reveal it every day. Each habit reveals what you did in school. What you learned or failed to know speak loudly. Your character broadcast the way you thought and acted. , - Yes, our ECHDES go everywhere. People who have never seen us have heard the echo, and it is the kind of echo your school days makesc that determines your advancement and opportunities. Some, not many, have echoes ahead of them, that close, the door of their chance to promotion. The Echo of half learned subject-matter keeps them from using what little they do know. This closes all the dnrs to occupations where knowledge is needed. Our poor lang- uage, our carelessness in manner, our lack of skill, are all proclaimed where ever we go. Oh! when our actions echo against us how it does hurt? But when our actions echo understanding of science, history, literature, fine arts, these echoes fling wide the doors of opportunities. There is another echo that hinders one who has wast- ed his school days more than the 'ignorance echo'. This echo is the hollow, dull, sad one when we failed to hnld character1 You failed to be honest, you failed to be courteous, you failed to be cheerful. Your thinking was low. How these things do echo around the world and close the door for so many good jobs. ' ' T Our WSchool day Echoesn make or break us.' We may think it was smart not to throw our souls into our school work, to shirk,and not be teachable,but we are deceived! When the echoes of wasted school days come back to' ns, they dishearten us. f , T H. , ' No, the record of our shhool days are not in some unseen vault, but is echoing every where. In Junior High School many will have good echoes flying ahead, unlocking good positions and bringing them honor. Others will find' themselves overwhelmed by their USchool days Echoesn. The wasted time and discourteousness and dishonor come back to them, echoing disappointment, sadness, and discour- agement. ' ' i . l Junior High School has given each one miopportunity to send good Echoes flying. Did you do this or only open a WPandQra Born? - f 1 Q Jgffccaggeaffnf
