He reads nothing but Li'l Abner , he begins to look like Pappy Yokum. He reads mush, he becomes a bowl of oatmeal. He reads about midgets, he becomes a dwarf.

Going His lVczy? Every student by the time his high school days are drawing to a close should have decided either on his vocation or on the stable norms according to which that vocation will be determined. From social studies We know that a huge portion of human misery results from the fact that people drifted into and did not make a rational and prayerful choice of their course in life. At St. Stanislaus High School everything is done for the student to assist him in his choice. He is encouraged to pray, to seek advice and Fr. Ralencotter C. P., on October 20, initiated at St. Stanislaus High School the Good Counsel Club, the purpose of which is to help the girls make the right choice in their course of life.
