The progressive feature of achievement implies, as a third characteristic of an avocational pursuit, appeal to the intellect. Without this characteristic progressive 636 THE MODERN HIGH SCHOOL study and achievement would be impossible, and with- out progress or growth interest would soon wane. Mere sensory or emotional appeal is not sufficient, for this soon exhausts itself and settles back to the common- place. As a fourth desirable quality of an avocation may be mentioned possibility of indiv...idual pursuit. This is de- sirable because one of the chief functions of an avocation is to serve as an elevating means of self-entertainment. We cannot always depend on our friends for amusement, but without having recourse to a cultivated and expand- ing interest we are likely to become a burden to ourselves when alone. This does not mean, of course, that the fruits of an avocational pursuit are not to be shared with others. Indeed, this sharing must always be looked upon as one of the most attractive outcomes of an avocational activity.
