Rev. Martin chose the subject,

This was an unusual subject but

injects sufficient humor to put a
cross his speech smoothly and with
perfect understanding He made
it clear that much of the misunder-
standing between groups and ma

suit of Propaganda. The audience
grasped the information that Eng

After Graduation What
BY Mary NJ. Duncan


On June 3, approximately a doz-
en- of our Portland high school Sc
niors received diplomas signifying
completion of their high school
careers. At that time the question
foremost in their minds was "Af-
ter graduation-wh at?"
For four years these seniors
have been steadily gaining know
ledge in fundamental studies, to
enable them to take their places
as the leaders of tomorrow. For
tunately, some will be able to go
on to college and university to,fur-
Their equip themselves for posi-
lions. But what of those who have
finished educations, at least tenn
porarily, and must find jobs and
work? They have been taught
how to equip themselves for a po-
sition-but the question is How to
Find Job 2"
In Portland, for the past sever
al years, there has been a Voca-
tional Placement bureau, conduct
ed by the Portland public school
system, to aid and instruct gradu-
ates in finding positions. Have
our graduates taken advantage of
this bureau? Why? If our boys
and girls would take every advan-
tage of such an opportunity, then
when seniors leave school they
wouldn't leave with the query "Af-
ter graduation-what?"

to his admiring friends that theii
generous gesture toward him had

Needless to say all this was fol.

There is an old town clock in a tower at the

represented in the groupings of beautiful trees,

The thing that's striking is the feeling Of in
formality that pervades the place. Everyone is
happy, everyone does as he pleases. It's amusing
to see what particularly interests people who
have never been to the place before. Some go
crazy over the flowers, others the paintings,
others the furniture and arrangements.
