for employment.
The success of the schooling was
proved by the fact that all men are
now employed by Gunderson Cor
poration. As one graduate states,
"The $3.37 an hour I now earn is
I much better than $1.00 an hour in
the field and the work is easier and
the employment is steady."
They are all grateful to the
V.M.L. for starting them on their
new careers.

La belleza de la piel
La salud y la belleza de la piel
son muy importante para la mujer
mucho más de lo que ella crea.
La mujer pierde la mayor parte
de su belleza cuando su piel apar
ece impura, arrugada o mal cui
dada.
Solamente una cuarta parte de
la mujeres tienen un cutis perfect
amente sano y normal.
Las otras tres cuartas partes tie
nen algún trastorno de la piel.
Como, piel seca, piel demasiado,
grasosa, piel mixta o impur
gada, granos, maltratada etc
Las causas son mala circ
de la sangre, en otras muy m
fensa contra los microbios.
La mayoría de las mujer
perdido gran parte de sus
tade^ naturales: La produce
grasas naturales.
Salud y belleza de la p¡
siempre unidas, tenga un cul
fectamente sano y normal.

sales and meetings.
Jim Houser has been busy with
youth projects, tutoring, and trou

completing the glossary for Yamhill
County VISTAs, from all local agen

nail things at our new center.
Fay Galaviz, our program aide,
has been busy with telephone calls

Pat Sunderman is on vacation.
She has been on Day Care and ac

new projects.
Toni Novak has been active with
groups and activities in the County

people were helped, and got full

So you can see, Mr. Wilcox and
friends, I have just been told I am
the Yamhill County Area Supervis
or.
I have moved to a new center
and a new job. I have just found
out many new things, but the most
outstanding one is the wonderful

this opportunity to mention this to
you so we w ill all know it.
