4 THE CADUCEUS Getting a Vision of Life All of us are looking into the future, some to a summer vacation, some to our four years at college, and some to the work that we will take up after graduation. Did you ever think of the importance of getting a vision of the whole and of keeping it in mind as you plan? As one walks through a. shipyard, he sees a youp of carpenters busy at tlh-eir task. He sees at first what appears to him nothing but a few boards carelessly placed together. But as he re- turns day after day, he sees that each move the carpenters make seems to have some particular effect on the whole, and at last he sees a magnificent ship awaiting to enter the water. The carpenters genius lay in his ability to get a vision of the whole be- fore he began, and to realize just what ef- fect each move he made would have upon his ship. Then he could plan for the de- sired results. The important thing for each of us is to get a vision of our own life and to pla11 to make it a masterpiece. We may dream of gaining great fortune, of becoming great business men, or of giving our lives to the service of our country. The nobler our vision, the nobler our lives become. Vlfe see each duty in its proper place and need Waste no time in useless work. Just as a carpenter follows his blueprint, we can follow our vision. Things which seemed pointless before, have a new interest for us as they fit into the finished. whole. Even the routine of our school work that seems mere drudgery takes on a new meaning, we see what a great necessity it is toward developing our minds for the future. We should take more interest in perfecting de- tails which seem trivial and never let the important points slip heedlessly by. Until we get a vision, we must follow the visions of others, we must be led by those who are planning for us. Every one of us has gone through primary school and gram- mar school. Some of us will be graduat- ing, and some will go away to college. Per- haps our parents and friends have had dif- ficulty in holding us to this daily task, but now we can appreciate their efforts because we realize that education is the foundation on which we build our lives. Some of the strongest parts of this foun- dation have been formed right here in school. Our teachers and our coaches have given us the habit of work, concentration, and cooperation. Let us l1ope that our lives will be a credit to the school which has helped us so much. Gambling There are 111211157 dilferent ways of gambl- ing. Some are not looked upon as such. When we cross a busy street, ride in an automobile, airplane, or motorboat, we are gambling with death. There is danger in swimming or even walking. ' It is possible also to gamble in school. When we arise late and plan to reach school barely on time, We may be late through no fault of our own, but because the clocks do not coincide. It we go joy- riding at noon we may have a flat tire, en- gine trouble, or some other unforeseen ac- cident which delays us and causes tardiness. If in school we do 11ot quite understand a problem and borrow another's answer, the teacher may notice a resemblance. Also when the examination comes We cannot do a problem similar to the one which was copied, due to our lack of concentration when it was first presented. If one com- mits a misdemeanor, the chances are that the teacher will look up and catch him in the act. In short, we gamble every min- ute of our lives.
