TO THE SOPHOMORES IN PARTICULAR Brace Yourself With A Telescope Some people need gas masks: a few people need guns: medicine is necessary for certain individuals: but all of us need to brace ourselves with a telescope. With whole countries changing hands without a word of warning, with new appealing jobs shoved right into our faces daily, the present day is a little bewildering to most of us. And few of us can keep our minds stable and our bodies refreshed as long as we chase thither and yon for new and thrilling adventures, with each new idea that enters our addled brain. Nor can we gain ground by reliving old. unsuccessful blundersome pasts. Neither dare we adopt the policy of living for today only, or that “What’s the use?’’ attitude of tomorrow we die or get drafted. Instead, let us get fit with a telescopic viewpoint of a brilliant future, that we may win sticking to our goal and plodding daily toward our star of future privilege.
