School Children In Essays Express Desires of Work and Positions in Great World They Are Soon to Face. Remember when you were a kid how you always wanted to he an engineer on a passenger train, or a detective, or a circus performer? And how you turned out to he some thing: altogether different? It you can still remember hack that far. you'll be Interested In knowing what the Portland boys and girls your boys and girls perhaps are thinking about the future and of what rosy dreams they hold for the positions they ars to occupy In life. "Under the title "Hitch Tour Wagon to a Star," hundreds of Portland boys and girls have told their teachers the Inmost secrets of their hearts and minds, have naively 'confessed to just euch longings for thrills and brass but tons and high adventure as you used to have a good many years ago. Writers Not Identified. Since the essays were signed by ini tials only, of course teacher could never tell which boy wanted to be a police roan and what demure little girl longed to pirouette in pink tights in the saw dust ring. But she is permitted to puszle over the familiar handwriting of her young charges and guess which Is which. "I want to be the foreman on the biggest cattle ranch this side of the Rio Grande." writes one boy and then adds in justification of his- desires: "I have seen cattle branded and dehorned, so that now I will not get chicken llvered." Another young man longs for the glory of a naval uniform. "I want to be an officer of the U. S. Navy," he writes. "It will take much training to get there, but when you're there you have something. My folks want me to be a civil engineer, but I have no feel ing for that work." "My Ideal is to be a General In the Army" writes another boy. "He Is the leader of our fighting family. A woman who is womanly admires a manly man. dot One with & rich dad and a white lace." This Ambition Not I'nuiml. "My ambition Is to be an engineer on St passenger train," writes one young man, but, as If overpowered by the magnitude of his aim In life, he con cludes apologetically: "But if I can ever get to be this, I do not know. I know It takes self-control, being careful, ac curacy and nerve." Among the girls nursing and dress making seem to be popular Ideals for future occupations. "I think I will probably be a nurse," surmises a little irl who signs herself "L. G." "If 1 ten some people they sav. 'Well, some body was a nurse and they got a dis ease from their patient and it caused her death.' I do not know whether they tried to frighten me or not, but If all the nurses were afraid they would get a disease. I think we would have poor hospitals. I think I will be a tourse. -Another girl says: "I want to be a nurse, but will have to get over my fainting 'spells when I look at blood." r.rabrro Dressmaker Writes. 'An embryo dressmaker writes: "I am told many times that I will tire of tewing, that it is drudgery. I do not believe it. Many people cannot sew sis well as they should. Therefore I will sew for them. If every dress maker were irresolute there should be none." One boy wants to be the owner of 7000 head of cattle and is on his way to this ideal by way of the back yard rabbit hutch. He says: "I am the own er of two dozen thoroughbred Black Giant rabbits and three White Leghorn chickens. I can at least double my atock every years and so come some where near my ambition." Singers, business men, poets, authors, musicians, teachers, circus proprietors all are objects of longing on the part of Portland children. One young lady springs a novelty when she says that . she only longs to prepare herself to make a good home. "Which of us gets his desire In this world?" asks Thackeray In the epi logue to -"Vanity Fair." "And which of us, having them, Is satisfied?" It would be interesting to know how many of these youthful dreamers will realise their ideals and how many will hold their dreams through life. .RETIRED MERCHANT BURIED Edmund C.
