What's in
handwriting?
By MARGARET McNAIR
Handwriting Analyst
Does handwriting show
talent?
Yes. Handwriting also re
veals whether one has traits of
character that can be used in
building a successfully, happy
life. Talent is not essential for
building a happy, successful
life, but talent alone is not
enough.
Does handwriting reveal a
person's age or sex?
No. Handwriting is "brain
writing." It is not a reflection
of one's years or gender. Some
handwriting may look quite 1
mature, yet belong to a child.
Another handwriting may
seem to be immature, yet may
be written by a middle-aged
person. Some women write
with the "aggressive" man's
script. Some men write with
graceful flourishes and deli
cate formations one usually
thinks of in feminine terms.
Does handwriting start re
vealing something of a per
son's character and personal
ity just as soon as he's old
enough to attempt writing?
Yes. The scribblings of a
very small child, done with a
pencil or crayon, will yield
some of the facts immediate
ly. A handwriting analyst can
get just as much as the child
puts on paper that is a result of
the child's mental habits.
Handwriting analysis dis
covers mental growth, for
handwriting is "brain writ
ing." The following handwriting
sample is that of a Morrow
County youngster.
Scholarships must be
applied for by Dec. 1

This handwriting shows un
mistakable talent for building,
creating with the hands. It
indicates precision, a liking
for detail work plus a liking to
do a job well. Add to the
creative or engineering ability
a searching intelligence and
talent is the inevitable result.
The writer is ruled to a great
extent by the emotions, so
achievement could be spas
modic. Yet, the willpower is
strong, and the writer is
already looking into the future
and has positive hopes and
purposes far beyond the
immediate moment.
Three levels of scholarships
are offered by the Soroptimist
Federations of the Americas,
. Inc., to young people and adult
women.
Applications may be obtain
ed from Daisy Collins (676
9947 or 676-9441) before Dec. 1
so that selections may be
made of local winners and
their names sent along for
further awards in the north
western region and nationally.
Each year youth citizenship
awards are given by the
Heppner club to several high
school seniors, either boys or
girls, who apply and are
judged outstanding. The local
winners gain cash prizes and
the best application is for
warded for regional judging
where the first place award is
$1,000. Each of the 17 regional
winners will be considered for
the nat ional award which is an
additional $1,500.
Training awards are offered
to mature women who need
funds to aid them in the labor
market. Applications state
that these awards are "for
part-time or full-time non
academic or entry or re-entry
schooling." Soroptimists are
excluded. Two $1,000 awards
will be given in the north
western region. There is also a
national training award given
to the outstanding regional
winner. Pat Brindle of Hepp
ner's Neighborhood Center
was a winner of one of these
$1,000 awards in 1973.
A third type award offered
in the region is a graduate
fellowship. Its winner may be
enrolled or enrolling in any
accredited college or uni
versity in the United States in
any field of graduate study.
She must be established in
business or profession and
have demonstrated ability to
succeed in her chosen field.
She must hold a bachelor's
degree from an accredited
college or university. The
winner of this award will
receive $2,500 payable in
installments at the time of
registration on either a quar
terly or semester basis.
Plans and preparations are
in swing for the third annual
AAUW sponsored Artifactory,

if
The writer is friendly for the
most part, but will resent
quickly, and just as quickly let
it be known if imposed upon.
Here is no gadabout. The
writer is more likely to work
alone (or with one or two
people) than in a crowd.
Summing up: The writer's
handwriting shows recogniz
able indications of talent a
bright, inquiring mind that
likes to learn, to explore new
ideas, to analyze facts, to
investigate the "whys" and
"wherefores" and then to put
to practical use all this
information, in a creative,
constructive way.
