When should you do each? When the right situation is present. No one wants to work all the time; however, on the other hand, no one should want to play all the time. Know the right time to work, study, play, and loaf and do each at the proper time. B OA RD OF ED UCA TIOJV TEA CHERS JAMES NICKELL Agriculture Freshman Sponsor F.F.A. Sponsor Purdue University, B.S.
