P ages 116-124 Reflections on Today's Youth These years in school are our best years, for now our mental comprehension is at its height and our concentration upon subjects willnever againbe as free from distractions as it is now. The challenge then to each of us is to get our education established upon a firm foundation so that we can face the future, secure in the knowledge that we have already acquired and in the self-confidence it has brought to us. Every department of our curricula contributes a share of knowledge, a part of our grasp of life, and a factor in our ability to learn as long as we live. As youthful Americans, we are setting out on a road to new frontiers where each of us can play an important role in lessening world tension and in bringing about understanding, harmony, and accord among all peoples, for without these peace cannot be attained.
