Six THE L A WRENCI AN — 1 942 ' OUNG people are very fortunate for many reasons. Whether we be at war or at peace, they have a long future to look forward to, to do with it what they may. Is there anything more important to one ' s personal satisfaction than the ability to get the most out of life? Fortunately, for young people those who have gone before have charted many of the landmarks and milestones that give direction and breadth to a career. With these landmarks clearly in view, the student can avoid meaningless wanderings which so often are typical of the course of those who lose their way. A good start should result in happier and more efficient years ahead. The important thing for all young people is to know their destination and then set their course in that direction. The following suggestions might be used as guideposts. All of living is dedicated to satisfying needs. It is important that young people know and recognize their own needs. One way to avoid getting off the set course is the ability to evaluate your needs and put them in proper relationship to each other. Life, you will find, is a continuous learning experience. The more facility you attain through training and experience, guidance, and study, the greater is your satis- faction in learning and the more notable your success. I have suggested two ideas that might be considered the first two of many guideposts for young people; namely, to recognize your own needs and to remember that life is a continuous learning- experience. With these two to start you on your road to success, each one that you encounter will give you much needed advice and stimulus to encourage you on the road, tough though it is, that you have chosen as the course of your career. Victory, whether it is your personal one or a common one with all other believers of democracy, is something that must be fought for; defeats and discouragement have always been overcome by courage and the will to succeed.
