Consider the Future and Plan Accordingly
The tendency of the average man is to base his actions only on conditions which confront him now. He does not think about the conditions which he may have to face ten or fifteen or twenty years hence. Before you take a job think about how it is going to work out as you grow older. What will you be doing when you are 40 or 50 years of age? It is possible to make definite plans for the future and follow them consistently and the disabled soldier should weigh very thoughtfully the opportunity for schooling and training without cost which the United States Government through the Federal Board for Vocational Education is prepared now to offer him. Statistics show that on the average a man with some theoretical training has ultimately a greater earning capacity than another man of equal ability but without such training. Every disabled soldier who for any reason has not been able to become posted in the elements of the calling which he wishes to follow, should avail himself of the chance now presented to him to get such training as he needs.
