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

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

Through the projects, such as
signs, posters and Christmas cards,
money for the trip was gained.

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.

It seems, junior girls delighted i
in giving funny, unromantic valen- j

showed it off.
