s5fX?s?s ' Cfhe Siqn Seujs Go J. H. Painter There are points on the highway where the traveler is en- joined to stop, look, and listen. lt seems that the end of the school year is a fitting place on the educational road, for the senior to pause and take some account of himself. He has spent four years in high school and should now view critically, the forces which have operated to make his course a pleasure and success, or drudgery and partial failure. He should be able to judge with considerable accuracy the traits of his own character which are likely to lead to a useful station in life, and those which give no promise of success. There are many roads open to the graduates. The two most commonly considered are those to the professions and those to business. The road to the professions goes by way of college, and involves much of hard work if one expects to get far. Une to whom hard study is distasteful should avoid this road. The pupil who cuts classes, who makes little or no prepa- ration outside of school, who feels that social functions are of more importance than school duties, is not likely to make a success in this line of work. If, however, he feels that his school record and his own inclinations justify his takingthis course, he will find the doors of any college open to him on the same terms as to the pupils from the best preparatory schools. He may also take comfort in knowing that the pupils from Steele have ever been able to hold their own with the best from other schools. The road to business is more direct and has a lure for many. Here, too, the graduates of Steele who have acquired the habit of persistent, organized work are among the leaders. VVhat they have done you, too, can do if you possess their sterling qualities. , But you cannot look and listen too long: the traffic is moving, the signal says UGO , so choose your course and speed forward on the road to service, success, and happiness. The traditions of Steele are behind you, keep her ideals ever before you. 4 A 'NY 0 NXQN. N N , X Q Nwwx Nxbxwvvwxwx x wx ' PAGE NINE
