In anticipating graduation from
high school, you undoubtedly have
your sights on the horizon. look-
ing ahead for the next course on
which to sail to best care for your
future, and prepare for comfort
and security in old age. You may
be planning on attending college,
which is a commendable endeavor
and worthy of encouragement.
However, if this is not the. case,
and provided that you are phy-
sically qualified, I should like to
propose the desirability of invest-
