Guudance r B0 S and G rls, As a young person today, you are probably giving some thought to your future career--and with good reason. Yours is the ex- citing prospect of growing up in a world where career oppor- tunities will be ever richer and more interesting. There are whole fields of work open today that didn't exist when your parents were in junior high school such as television and space. Along with these added oppor- tunities come some additional re- sponsibilities.

Life stories have given many informa- tion and inspiration for a job or profession. In conclusion, remember that all work which contributes a necessary service to society has dignity. Our society has need for a certain number of its,men and women in the professions. It also needs millions of men and women with technical, admini- strative, and mechanical skills. Good Luck!
