Appreciates Your Patronage SENIORS HEAR DEAN DAVIS Wednesday morning. March 7 at 9 o'clock. Dean DavtF of Whitman uni versity spoke to the senior class of La Grande High school. Dean Davis, who has been connected with Whit man university since 1012 is visiting the different high schools of Idaho, Oregon and Washington In the ni v terest of prospective students of Whitman. The Key-note of Dean Davis1 ad dreta was that valuable and lasting statement of Marcus Whitman, ie. "All my plans require time and dis tance." In the light of the above gem; Dean Davis left this challenge with the seniors are your plans as big as you are; are your plans a little big ger than you are? You should so make your plans that it will require much time and effort to live up to or attain them. In fact It fcj the duty and obligation. of every Individ ual .of each generation to look and plan ahead. In the life that you live try and imagine what will happen to you in the future. In summing up the requisites for choosing a career Dean Davis says that it is impossible to give a diag nostic test, to young people of high school or college age. that will deter mine what they will be or will be able to do efficiently In the future. He says that the time for a bright boy going away to college to meet his calling -te when he goes to the college not when he comes away. That Is, the boy should have been thinking and planning what he was going to do so that when he came to college he would havo something materially to begin with.
