George Washington Profile Given By Nugget Scribe By SHIRLEY STILLWELL George Washington, whose birth day was celebrated February 22, is widely noted for his accomplish ments, yet Washington the man is not very well known. Biographers have praised him so highly that he hardly seems human. Kindly, thoughtful and modest he would have protested being placed on a pedestal, but this is where he be longs because he was a true Amer ican gentleman. Born on a Virginia plantation in 1732. Washington was educated by his half brother Lawrence. His ex perience as a surveyor was gained by assisting in a survey of certain Fairfax h o I ri i n c s in the Shen andou'i Valley. liis part ii the French and Indian War wr.s sini I'cant because he sained nvl'Uiry nbirt;- vlvc'.i ho l '.'r ms.hI ,is the Icac'T of the Amerc?n Army in the Ucvdu'.ier-.. Japiicry . 17.v Walii'ilon mar ried Margaret Cuslis and retired to Mount Vcrncji. which had be come his home after Lawrence died. Washington became a gentleman-farmer, a member of the House of Burgesses and a member oi the First nnd Second Continental Congresses. June 15. 1775 Washing ton served his country with gallan try, upheld the Patriot cause ard led America successfully through their fight lor freedom. Although he had again retired, Washington lent his support to the plan for a stronger central govern ment. He presided over a constitu tional convention and was unani mously elected first President of the United States, thus becoming the father of his country. During his two terms, the nation became established. His farewell address is considered one of America's most prized state papers. Washington retained the com mission of lieutenant general and commander in chief of the army until his-death December 14. 17(H). A tomb at Mount Vernon is the final resting place of Washington, the man who leads the list in the American Hall of Fame. Girls Hear Beautician By MARIE ARNOLD Mr. Carl Powell, manager of Eu gene Beauty College, represented the school February 11 in a meet ing of all girls interested in be coming beauticians. Mr. Powell presented what the college offere.l and also discussed the g?nera! duties of a beautician. Twenty-nir.e junior and senior girls attended the mce'.ing. Some of Ih? requirements for admission into the college are that a girl be at least 17 years old. is able to pass a health examination. and it is recommended thai she be a graduate from high school. Twentv live hundred hours of in struction, theory and practice, arc required to graduate irom the college. Natural characteristics which aid in knowing the art arc an ability to learn rapidly and eas ily, to get along well with people, to have an artistic sense and to like creative work. Three phases in acquiring a beautician's license are hair styl ing, manicuring and cosmotology, skin and facial care. Possibilities in obtaining a job are unlimited. An example of the opportunity is an incident which Mr. Powell gave. A certain girl was able within four years to, first, have partnership in a shop and, at the present time, have her own shop. The minimum wages arc $40 a week plus 50 per cent of the actual earnings. In some places 60 per cent is given, though not guaranteed.

All members who had complet ed 10 hours' work on art club proj ects and had a three point grade average were eligible to go. Through the projects, such as signs, posters and Christmas cards, money for the trip was gained. At noon lunch was served In the Student Union Building at the University of Oregon in Eugene. A tour of the School of Architec ture and Allied Arts on the univer sity's campus followed. This is housed in a new building. ! Portland was reached that evening and after dinner the group s.-uv the Lipnian exhibit. All high schools in Oregon con- jtributed to the exhibit. A jury then chose the entries which were : displayed. i Saturday morning the students toured the art galleries, modern furniture stores, modern buildings 'such as churches, and the like of Portland. The presentation of awards was given Saturday af ilernoon. j Saturday evening the Portland Art Museum was host to the ' group. Here they saw exhibits of the Museum Art School and demonstrations on practically any phase of art sculpture, weaving. ceramics, painting. no, am I going to get caught? It seems when girls treat boys. they make boo-boo's too. A fresh man girl didn't have enough mon ey to pay for her date's unusual ly over-sized snack he ordered. But, it isn't very often a boy would buy a big-boy, french fries, and a milkshake for himself. By, the way. he had to pay about half of the bill. And, do you ever see boys plan ning, cooking and serving a com plete dinner to their dates? No. but the girls did just that. And it seems the tpwn doctors received quite a blooming business the next day. How do you feel boys? Usually, after-game dances bring a stag group of students in, but at the twirp-dance, Friday. Feb ruary 14. more couples flocked in than ever before. A little less watching and a little more danc ing proves girls want to dance rather than "sit this one out." Who was the girl that asked for the family car, picked up her date, and heading toward town to the game, had a flat tire? She was embarrassed and uneasy as she thought she would have to fix the flat tire but the boy volunteered and soon they were on their way again. By the way girls, next time you ask for the car. make sure there is a jack in it. A long distance call to a boy friend in Portland from a KU ophomore proved twirp week was j anything but a phrase. i It seems, junior girls delighted i in giving funny, unromantic valen- j 'tine cards to their dates on Val entine's Day. One boy was so j proud of his card Friday, he stood in front of the K Club section and showed it off. Now as twirp season Is over once again, memories will last on 'until new ones replace old ones during twirp season next year. Stu ; dents liked the idea even though I now you hear sighs of relief from 'female students. Boys they think it should happen at least once a ; month. Did you have fun? sub-club of Girls League.
