The Best Work for You Is What Your Heart Chooses

A critique of vocational guidance experts argues that natural gifts are less decisive than interest and emotion.

Naval and radio weather analogies illustrate using intuition and ongoing observation to predict outcomes.

Weather Prophecy From Static In Navy Radio Circles

Navy radio experts in the Canal Zone report static forecasts bad weather as storms distant trigger electrical discharges. The phenomenon, observed with approaching storms, appears as sizzling noise across frequencies and is presented as a safety consideration for maritime communication. In Massachusetts a strict campaign on motor licenses aims to curb accidents and fatalities with 728 suspensions or revocations in a week. Among those, 184 licenses were cancelled for intoxication or liquor transport, 205 for poor brakes, and 32 for faulty lights. The same period saw nineteen fatalities in highway incidents involving thirteen adults and six children. The author suggests revoking licenses after accidents mirrors locking up after theft, while calling for stricter licensing, responsible applicants, and better traffic routing in congestion areas.
