sewing and domestoc science courses
will be prepared for duties as a
housewife.

I wonder if you'll credit this;
George never wore a wig,
For curly mops of milk white wool
And there is evidence to prove
This bald assertion true;
George combed his own hair smoothly back
And wore it in a queue.
_ . wonder if the idea of a wigless George Washington will
ever become popular with Fourth of July committees. Be
that as it may, evidence points to the fact that our First President really did ‘wear his own hair.”
. Among my souvenirs there is a quaifit, old fashioned engraving which depicts the head and ‘shoulders of General
Washington. The face, long and rather homely is en profile
and the hair, unmistakably his own, is combed sleekly back
and confined at the nape of the neck by a black ribbon tied
This unusual picture of Washington is set in a circular. {f:
black walnut frame. Upon the back, which like the front isla .
protected by glass, appears this curious inscription, done in
“The God-like Washington died 14th December 1799.
All America in tears. The within is the best likeness I have
seen. The hair if of his own head, this will increase its value
with time; it’s my earnest request this may be preserved to
succeeding generations. The hair was presented to me by May
E. Watson Billings. Con. Army Certificate. This may certify
that the within hair was enclosed by General Washington in
a letter to me dated Newburgh June, ’83, was his own hair.
I wonder how long Franklin’s Shakespearean quotation . .
will continue to reverberate in and about
Temple. It might be well for labor leaders everywhere to ponder another group of words from a still more notable source
‘—"‘A house divided against itself shall not stand.” 4
__ If wonder if there would be fewer law breakers if law
makers would express their ideas in terms which the layman
could readily understand. Turn to the laws and ordinances designed to regulate the use of headlights upon auto motive
vehicles. Surely we would never disregard these rules if we
knew what they meant and comprehended the tragedies which
their observance might avert. Then why not omit the ‘‘to wits
and whereases’’ and simply say, “Equip your headlights with
dimmers and then for—Safety’s Sake, use them.”
