10 THE QUIVER While we are at school, our liest friendships are formed. We know one another thoroughly from daily contact. Life friends are made from schoolmates, who have, more than once, proved to l)e the very best kind of friends. They are usually the ones who “stick” and who help a classmate through some difficulty in later life. The Senior ear at high school is a very great privilege. It is made a happy one by every teacher. When the year is drawing to a close, the Senior begins to feel sorry that he has to leave so soon. He has grown to love his school and is just finding it out. FUTURE CITIZENS! We who have finished High School are about to separate and go our different ways. All of us, however, are going out to prepare to be better citizens. In order to do our duty towards our nation, we must first be good citizens in that nation! It is a great duty, and we owe it to the city, state, and country in which we live. Be of service! Give your very best! We all have the foundation. Why not build a firm structure upon it? It is far from being an easy task, but it always pays in the end. In order to help you, if you arc doubtful, the following definition has been composed: A good citizen is one who, with no selfish purposes, co-operates for the good of others, usir.g the Bible and the Constitution of the United States as a guide. Think it over. Classmates! Live up to it! HOW SHALL I EARN A LIVING? Now. to the Senior, comes the great question, What shall I do for a living? For the more fortunate ones who are to go to college, it is not very difficult to answer. They are going to prepare for certain professions. However, those who have to decide the question at once find that it is far from being an easy one. Very few who are not going to college have anything definite in mind. They must heed the warning, “Choose carefully.”
