EDITORIAL O N first entering the new Ipswich High School, we as bewildered young freshmen, had little knowledge of the true value of a high school educa- tion. We attended school daily more as a matter of course than because of ac- tual foresight into the future. Little did we realize that some day we should be very sincere in expressing our grati- tude toward the same teachers who handed out the long homework assign- ments. This thorough training has helped to develop our minds to act in accordance with our growing bodies. It has enabled us to think and act more quickly, to reason more thoughtfully, to converse more intelligently, and to accomplish our work more thoroughly. At present, the opportunities for use- fulness are greater as far as the high school graduate is concerned. For those persons wishing to further their education, the prospects are favorable. There is in this country a definite need for trained minds. As for those per- sons who are not planning to attend higher institutions of learning, there has not for several years been such a boom in employment as there is at the pres- ent time. The country needs skilled workers also. Now that we have passed this phase of our life which was almost wholly directed for us by our parents and teach- ers, we are finally out on our own. Pre- viously the teachers did our planning for us — they outlined exactly what we wiere supposed to do; however, at this period of our life we must begin to make our own decisions. Above all, we must not be deceived by the present boom in employment into believing that the road is all straight and easy ahead. Born out of war preparations and defense needs, the sudden demand for workers represents an unhealthy growth. It is for us rather to look beyond the dark uncertain days im- mediately aLead an|d to work for a world where all men are engaged in peaceful pursuits and where justice and human brotherhood are supreme. 16
