Reports from many of the educational institutions Indicate that young people are finding It harder than usual to neeure the hind of positions they desire., That Is due In part to a somewhat abnormal situation in employment* wlileh has been In evidence for several months. But another factor Is of more permanence and Importance. It Ik the Increasingly keen competition arising from fact that each year seas larger numbers of trained ytlung men and women going out Into the world* ns the saying has It, In search of nuperlor kinds of employment, and success as well.
A few decades bark, when enrollment of both colleges otid high schools were a mere fraction of what they are today and when a graduate from either was in a sense a parson of rare distinction, the condition la respect to securing employment was far different. In many fields there were more position* than applicants who had been adequately trained for the places. Now* If recurrent reports to that effect are to be trust' ed the situation 1* almost directly opjMwtlle* with the exception of certain branches where a high degree of skill and training Is demanded. Today, there seems to he surplus not only of farm crop** but of lawyers, teachers, perhaps physicians (In the cities), of clerical and white-collar worker* In general. While the unemployment situation Just now is to be taken into account, the field has been more inviting with reference to skilled (Hides of various sort*. But altogether the keener competition for places exists. It may be expected to continue to be even more marked Jn the
future.
It should serve, however, not as a source of diseouragmeot, but as a stimulus to the many thousands of young people who turn each year from long period* of training In the schools to the more practical and exacting tests of the outside worltd. If tho proper use has been made of school opportunities there should he the equipment required by the nature of conditions In the Bold of practical at fairs; for education itself ha* Increased its efficiency In accordance with the demands made upon It* beneficiaries. So It U not Bit impossible test; It is more of a challenge, to be mat both In school and out.
FRKNHMR.N LEAK'S' VOlTt FOLLEGE HONG
If Is Raid' that in Europe the people live by thair traditions. J< America we forget our traditions or our past and live in and (or the present, The one big tradition of McPherson college by which tt lives la its song. Its one song above all others—“O Sacred Truth.”
The sons la typical of Kaunas and of the atandards of the ‘'School of Quality,” It is a song la which truth and freedom dwell. It Is the living everlasting spirit of tho Institution, Within It dwells the spirit of progress In humans and in tho school. It heralds the deed of Justice and of she self. It manifests a reeling of good cheer and contenimont. So let truth And freedom reign*
