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.
