■ J J J J THE HIGH SCHOOL HERALD 17 EDITORIALS WHATS IN STORE FOR THE GRADUATE Here in this fast-moving world are many opportunities for young people. For the high school graduate, who looks forward to continuing his education, there are many opportunities in college to further his studies in the fields of social service, the sciences and economics. Furthermore, the college student ' s access to the great libraries and laboratories of a college campus will stimulate his mind and widen the scope of his interest so that he will be better able to understand the needs of the world today and to prepare himself to do his share to make this a better place in which to live. On the other hand, those who get jobs soon after graduating from high school are also wise. The responsibility of earning a living and budgeting one ' s money is useful in all aspects of life. Girls who are graduates from the commercial course have an excellent chance for obtaining good positions in insurance companies in Hartford or Springfield, both cities close to our town. Consider, too, that probably a year or more of saving money will allow the young secretary a chance to go to college or to take some part-time study. Then, there is always the chance that the boys soon after graduation will be called into the service. However, doing his patriotic duty for his country and learning to cooperate can be summed up as some of the prime benefits of army life. Moreover, boys in military service very often have an opportunity for an educational program. Thus, parents who fear that the draft will postpone their son ' s college work should know that all over the world our soldiers are regularly enrolled students of American university programs with Uncle Sam paying most of the tuition. Very likely every graduate, before long will be in one of these groups. Think of the advantages rather than the disadvantages, and try to profit from your experience. As the old saying goes, There ' s a time and place for everything, and let this be the time to choose your golden future. Ruth Pomeroy ' 53 AIMING FOR SUCCESS Success is something we can t ijuite grasp without thinking and planning how to gain it. Such planning and working builds an arm and a hand which, figuratively speaking, we use to grasp each opportunity on the road to success. As students, we try to aim for higher marks and credits so that we shall be well prepared by graduation time to take our chosen places in life. Thus, we can say that a high school education is one of the important stepping stones to success. From high school many will go on to college, thereby increasing their chances of success. If each person is to use his education as a stepping stone to success, he must make the most of it while he has the opportunity. Since this opportunity comes only once ON Page
