Wilson, a friendly, gray-haired woman who believes a woman's biggest job is making a relaxing home for her husband, heard that her husband was going back to Washington in a whispered conversation during Sunday morning church services. “I always go to Bible class and then my husband joins me at church” she recalled, sitting in the sun room of their 11-room, English style home in suburban Scarsdale, N. Y. : “Two weeks ago Mr. Wilson was half an hour late for church, and I kept wondering if he'd had an accident with the car. But when he came in he whispered that President Truman had called him and asked- him to take this job. That was the first I'd heard anything about’ it.” She smiled calmly in| spite of her own suddenly disrupted plans for the future.

Three classes of 22 girls each are enrolled in a cosmetology course, studying hair setting, shampooing and manicuring each

school day. Mary Ann Fletcher and Wilma Barbee are two typical students taught by Mrs, Ermal Monninger. Mrs. Monninger, a

jed at a beauty college before she began the cosmetology course at Tech five years ago. The program is designed to ald girls in caring for their own beauty needs as well as helping them determine whether they want a career in beauty culture, Although Mary Ann and Wilma, like the remainder of the: students, will acquire 100 hours of actual experience with the comb and hair brush, they will not be qualified to apply for a license or to work professionally.

Headed for Careers

The two girls explained that they both want to enter beauty colleges and study for lcenses when they leave Tech High School, Neither had made positive steps toward preparing for a career until after the onesemester course was well under way this fall. Mrs. Monninger pointed out that time does not permit the girls to learn finger-waving or permanent waving, but the girls do study proper hair brushing methods, shampooing,

Grooming Stressed Mary Ann and Wilma explained the requirements for the class. Each girl must set a head of hair in 25 minutes, must complete a good manicure and set her own hair. They

| are judged on proficiency.

Good grooming is one of the points stressed dally in class work. Any girl who has not learned neatness must acquire the trait before leaving the class. When the girls arrive -each day they check the bulletin board for the work they are to accomplish that period. It might be pin-curling, manicuring or shampooing. Three students

are assigned as receptionist, ; shop manager and head of the ' | dispensary each day.

‘Jobs' Rotated

Caps, Seat Covers’ Fight Scalp Disease

By EDWIN P. JORDAN, M. D. DURING the past few years a number of communities have been troubled with outbreaks or small epidemics of ringworm of

the scalp. This disorder, the medical

name for which . i " is tinea capi- Pe aa tas, attacks # : school children in particular _ and has been responsible for a lot of trouble to parents, teachers, health officials, and physicians, not to mention the Dr. Jordan youngsters themselves. The disease tends to spread rapidly from an infected person to a healthy one. The backs of seats are particularly likely to harbor the infection. Consequently busses, street cars, moving picture theaters, etc, are sources of danger whenever there is an epidemic. : 4 "8H AT LEAST two Suggestions have been made to lessen this danger: Children should wear hats or caps to protect them, and disposable and frequently changed paper covers or guards can be placed on the backs of seats used by children, : The symptoms of ringworm of the scalp are usually typical. The hair falls out in patches on the back and sides. The skin of the involved part of the scalp becomes scaly and the hairs lose their luster and break off near the roots.
