The same thing applies to many others of the rules of human
conduct which this civilization chooses to call laws, laws ensiled

down to a six-mile-an-hour speed limit. Today few state* enforce
a speed limit lower than 20 mile* in town and 40 miles on the
open road.

FROM PALETTE TO MORTAR BOARD
Thousand* of young men and \oung women (they aren't
Imivs and girl* after they get out of the grade*! are entering high'
school this year, and if they are the right kind of young people ;
they will get the right kind of a thrill from this experience.
f iltering high *ehoo| is a epochal rxent in the life of anyone |
who i» hle***-d with the opportunity. Mo*t *tudent* ne»er get |
beyond the graduation period in the high schools. \fter that i
they either go to work or loaf or do a little of each.
•\ great many young people who enter high school ne\et
graduate, and that i* a very -.id mistake olr them to make, and
a still graver mistake on th> part of the parent*, providing the
latter deliU-rately give their consent to a child leaving high school ,
without graduating, when it i» not necessary.
The first dav in high school marks the beginning of an im
portant eyent in the life of th< young man or young woman who
enjoys the privilege of acquiring tin* important education.
There will come a time in the history of this country (and it
i* approaching rapidly nowadays |, when a young person without
