THE RED AND WHITE VOL. XXXVIII. MARCH, 1952 NO. 2 The Value of cz High School Education STEPHANIE SIPLAINE, '53 Every boy and girl should have at least a high school education. What other chance would he have that would help him obtain a Worthwhile position in life with good pay? What is there for him to offer life if he does not have an education? Many boys and girls think that When they reach the age of sixteen they should leave school. They think that it is time for them to start Work- ing, but they think mostly of having their ovvn spending money. This is fallacious reasoning.

Sometimes a school boy or girl be- comes discouraged and loses all hope of finishing school. Perhaps it is the question of money. But, instead of quitting school completely, vvouldn't it be far better for him to take a part- time job and continue going to school?
