The purpose OF our existence up
on this earth Is service. There are
many different kinds OF service. but
what We do should always be for
the good OF someone else. as well
~ for ourselves. II We are to per-
form our duty and serve well we
must be prepared.
BY present day standards pre-
paration requires education. Soms
OF our great men have come from
humble homes without even y good
grade school education. but this ID
the exception. and not the general
Sule. The school today IL undoubted-
ly the best available source of edu-
cation.
In order to find what kind of
service I am best fitted for I will
need a broad field OF work. study.
and planning. Information which
will give me an idea OF the different
fields OF usefulness will be OF great
value to me. The best place to get
this. ! think. Is In the public school.
