One of the important reasons for education is economic necessity—which means better living standards. This, I think, is a very practical answer. Surveys have been made in a most abundant manner, and in every instance the reports show that wherever there is a good school system or where the incidence of education is high—so too is the social-eco- nomic status of the community high. Education makes better consumers and producers of those necessities so important to modern living. When a person is educated he knows what consumer buying is and purchases the better merchandise. He learns that a bargain in any- thing can prove to be a very expensive item and that is the reason why we should look for the best products obtainable. We spend about nine billion dollars per year on education, an outlay that is and should be constantly growing. Many services are being added because of change and the demands of our citizenry. People are finding out that an education pays. Whatever the status of your education may be, the remuneration that you receive will be in direct proportion to the amount of education that you have. Therefore, the biggest business that you can get into is that of developing your life. We have been told that large concepts, deep insights, and big purposes will improve any- body’s position in life. Most situations in which we find our- selves are primarily reflections of our own being. Your future will be determined by the skill with which you set about improving yourself and conditions. I wish much future success to the class of 1956. J. FRED JONES B. S., M. E. Pennsylvania State University Supo'intendent of Sunbury Area Schools Page Ten
