That 10,000 ohm resistor can be a 1/2 watter. Most resistors are at least 1/2 watts, other than any power resistors. 1/4 watt resistors were not "invented" then.
A 1/4 watt resistor will NOT have the voltage rating that a 1/2 or 1 watt resistor has. A 1/2 watt resistor has about a 250 MAX voltage rating, so keep this in mind.
