Baa Francisco, Los Angeles, SeaKle, Portland, Chicago ; ., Detroit, Now York GRADUATE AMMTIONS One of the most interesting surveys ever taken in tin's city is printed on the front page of today's Ohservor, showing the ambitions of the menilters of the La Grande JIiL'h school class of graduates. It is doubly interesting for what it lists and for what it doesn't list. or example, none of the girls considered being a house wife it was stenography, musing, music or the like. That should arouse the young males of the community to some- tiling akin to consternation. It would seem, offhand, that tlie grand old calling of keeping house is headed for the dis card. We rather imagine however that after awhile some of ! the stenographers, the nurses, the beauticians and the secretaries will wind up singing little lots to sleep and hoping that the biscuits suit friend hubby. Yes, we rather imagine the old-fashioned customs will go on about the same as usual Another surprising thing was that only one senior con- sidered coaching and that senior was a girl, who wrote it "Physical Ed. Teacher". Maybe the boys fear the "panning' a coach sometimes gets when his teams take it on the chin! Visions of our causes being saved in some future decade by a silver tongued orator out of the 1034 L. II. S. class vanished a bit when we discovered the young man who favored public speaking, qualified his choice by adding "or medicine". At that a doctor gels more attention when lie speaks than the rank and file of orators! Seriously speaking, however, it was am;izing how really practical and modest were the choice of these seniors! There wasn't a far-fetched ambition in the entire list, and nine of ten vocations listed sounded completely possible. It causes us to suspect that these 128 seniors are going out into life nexc week with, their eyes completely openambitious to do the best they can, yet unwilling to hitch their wagon to a s,tar until they find out just how well the wheels are greased arid the road is open.
