Are, the Hardest XAT will you be doing ten, fifteen years from now? Fifteen years seems a pretty long time to be worrying, about, you say. Yet it's the fellow who looks ahead who usually comes out on top. He builds the foundation now. The successes of today and tomorrow are built on the foundations of yesterday. In the utility field that statement is par- ticularly true. A power station built today anticipates the needs of the community for manyr tomorrows. A transportation system is laid to take care not only of the present but of the future riders. Stone & Webster finances, builds and operates public utilities. It is constanIly looking forward,developingnewmethods, new ways, new ideas. The Stone & Webster man is progressive. His business makes him so. He pioneers because only through pioneering may the service needs of his public be met satisfactorily. You're going to know Stone & Webster when you leave college. You'll find an or- ganization of men with sound judgment: and upon whom you can depend. You'll find the Stone &,Webster organization is worth knowing and worth doing business with.
