THE HIGH SCHOOL HERALD 17 EDITORIALS THE CLASS OF 1945 This year ' s class like the graduating classes of the last three years will be a war class. Many of the boys who are eighteen will be in the army within a few months after they are graduated, while those who are not yet eighteen but will reach that age in a few months will probably be able to attend the summer session in college so that they may get as much education as possible before they have to enter the service. We hope that those who are fortunate enough to get this advanced edu¬ cation will take advantage of such opportunities, for they will probably have a much better chance of promotion while in service and will be better prepared for their life work when the war is over. The girls, as well as the boys, may also be helping our country during this na¬ tional crisis. The Army and Navy need a great number of nurses to take care of the wounded boys who are coming back from the battle fronts and to replace the graduate nurses who are being taken from the hospitals. Thus many of the girls in the class of 1945 will probably join the Cadet Nurses Corps and help to save the lives of many persons who are near and dear to us. Altogether the outlook for the class of 1945 is one of service and protection of the land they love. In this work we wish them all the greatest success. Lois Dowd ’47 THE ROAD TO BEAUTY Is there any girl who - wouldn ' t give her last penny to be the damsel that children smile at, women envy, and men turn to look at? To be all this requires no large sum of money nor any help from a fairy godmother. In fact, the only equipment needed to achieve beauty and charm is a handful of magazines and newspapers, and complete confidence in the advertisements they contain. For instance, consider the following advertisements that, if true, are surely the answer to every maiden’s prayer. For hair that is silky-soft with a glossy bril¬ liance that lasts for Jays, use the shampoo which is used by the famous Powers’ models. One advertisement tells its fair readers not to get panicky when their make-up goes on like sandpaper instea d of velvet. Just slip a cool white coat of a specially prepared cream over the whole face. The purpose of this cream is to dissolve all roughness and stubborn dirt particles, leaving the skin soft, white, and radiant. There is yet another brand of beauty preparations which will make your lovely image linger forever in the mirror of his mind — preparations unequalled for turning heads and hearts; but for real enchantment, use the nail polish that makes your nails glow and sparkle until all eyes turn to admire your flashing finger¬ tips. This nail polish can be obtained in a complete range of out-of-this-w ' orld shades. Then, there are countless other products promising to make your teeth white and sparkling, your hands soft and white, your hair shining and silky, your skin exquisite with the fresh radiance,of youth, etc. Not to be overlooked in the long list of concoctions for the art of feminine allure are perfumes, colognes, and talcum powders. Perfumes that surround you in a romantic veil of fragrance, w ' hisper of dark enchanting mystery, or provide a magic hour of unfettered joy. O ' Page
