.,v . THE 'VALUE OF EDUCATION The value of a high school education 11es,not merely in the actual knowledge gained, but in the training one may obtaing -------- the training of the mind to think for one's self. The task of thinking for ourselves is becoming more and more important every day. The whole world is at the present time in a great up-heaval. Because of this fact we need cool, steady minds--minds developed and trained to lead the nation through the barriers of war into the level plains of peace. Are you prepared to do your part? Many people would be forced to answer---No! Even though you may not obtain a better position be- cause of your education, at least you have learned how to think better. What knowledge you gain cannot be taken from you, except by yourself. By thinking for yourself you not only help yourself, but you help others as well. No two people think the same. Therefore if you are able to see your ideas clearly, you may express them to others. In this way a subject may be understood and developed from all points. The future of our nation depends on the people who live within 1t's boundaries. If every American has a well developed, trained mind, and if those minds are used for the good of the nation, in my opinion, our democracy would not perish. If the youth of to-day wishes to have a great nation to-morrow,they must start now and train themselves not only to think for themselves, but also to fexpfesg their thoughts effectively to others. Therefore grasp all the opportunities that are offered to you, and help preserve our democracy. Eleanor Stanley '41
