THE SUTHERLAND 3 eeholars. who are about to venture into the Big Game called Life. -Ed.-in-Chief. 0......t SUCCESS IN LIFE Everyone is expected to win success in the world. We have become so accustomed to measure success by a men's msition. that we are in the habit of thinking a man is a success because he lives in a house, has money in the bank. Wears good clothes. and is welI-educated. But in spite'of that he may be a failure. for a man's success does not depend up- on possessions. Of what is success compounded then? Those strong in body and intellect are most likely to succeed. Personal habits must be clean. One must be com- petent, trustworthy. honest. clean, temperate, and industrious. He must also strive for a disposition that is able to look on the bright side of life for that can bring one up a few steps toward success. Of all hindrances to success tof which there are manyi lack of confidence is the outstanding. Therefore one should learn to trust himself. to recognize his own abilities and he should have a determination to succeed. Because there are so many great opportunities for the young men and women of today. it is necessary to know how to succeed. If we remain undaunted on life's rough road and keep confidence in ourselves. we shall winewe shall succeed! eL. Swanson, '31 . H- BEHIND THE SCENES There are great doings in P. H.

I! THE SUTHERLAND forehand. The new Sutherland board is rushing hither and yon gathering stray bits of news about Seniors to make the last issue for the school term the snappiest, wittiest, and peppiest paper possible. tL. Gustafson, '31. --Hhh$ The article Why I Think There is too much going on in High School by Sinclair Allen in the last issue of the Sutherland has received much attention in town. A letter hearing on this same article has recently been received from some one on the other side of the state. As it makes two ewcallent suggestions, we think it worth while to pass on the thought of it to you. Editor-in-Chief The Sutherland Proctor. Vermont. I was most surprised to find a student who thinks there is too much going on in his high school. True, there are many failures which are entirely uncalled for. but on the other hand. are not your honor students largely the ones who are prominent in the school's social activities and sports? Why not eliminate the ACTIVITY of LOAFIN G in study- hall, the library and other places? I hope this suggestion will give any who are troubled with more time for the legitimate activities of their school and boost their marks. Yours for a well-balanced diet, tAIiasi BILL BOGERS.
