Any traveler, in order to reach his destination, must follow a definite route, selected from several choices available to him. His decision regarding his choice of route is based on information and advice available to him. It is the same with us as we travel our various paths. We not only gain much from others who have traveled before us, but we profit also from our own past experiences. We should carefully consider the advice, information, and experiences of others as well as our own so that we may choose the correct route as we approach each crossroad in our lives. Mr. Jensen confers with two faculty members. 6

toumloi uuL CmuJmJw, MR. MICHAEL DAVIES: Counselor Goals: The end to which a design tends; aim; purpose. Mr. Webster states in one of his many books that in order to reach a goal we must have at least three things: purpose, aim, tend. Purpose —This is something for us to decide. We must ask ourselves, what am I going to be? Whatever it may be needs purpose, and our counselors and coordinators have helped us to decide what our goal in life may be. When we have purpose we have something to aim for, something that will make us a success! The third, tend, that's a strange word isn't it? But it means to reach. The goals we reach are seldom reached alone. We all owe a lot of thanks to those who have helped us. The requirement! for College ore — explain! Mr. Dovie! to Beverly Fairbanks. MRS.
