Educational Talent

Works With Youth
The Educational Talent
Search Program, jointly spon
sored by Saint Augustine's
-College and North Carolina
State University at Raleigh,
N. C. is currently working
with youth in ten North East
ern North Carolina counties
to identify those youth who
have the desire, the talent and
potential to continue their
educational training beyond
high school. Some eight
hundred of these youth will
be directed into and through
college and university pro
grams. Others will be directed
into Technical and Voca
tional programs. , the Job
Corps, New Careers and other
training programs.
These post-secondary ed
ucational and training oppor
tunities are available to youth
in Nash, Edgecombe, Frank
lin, Vance, Warren, Halifax,
Northampton, Bertie, Hert
ford and Martin Counties.
Statistics show that a large
number of youth in the ten
counties cropped out of
school, and only a small per
centage of the high school
graduates enter any form of
post -secondary training. Ef
forts are being made to iden
tify and assist school drop
outs enter training programs.
High School graduates and
students of grades 7-12, are
being provided information
regarding Educational Oppor
tunities and Financial Assis
tance Programs. Much is be
ing done with the assistance
of the public schools to mo
tivate youngsters who have
talent and potential but are
failing to develop, cultivate
and employ such in regular
school activities.
The names and resume on
youth identified ,by the
Talent Search Program are
being sent to colleges and
universities across the nation.
A large number of institu
tions are able to admit a
number of students and pro
vide them with special coun
seling, remedial programs and
substantial financial assis
tance. tt is of primary impor
tance that primary applica
tions for admissions and
financial assistance be com
pleted and forwarded to these
institutions before January 1,

early.

Health And Beauty
Tallness has at last become
recognized by woman for the
asset that it is. It is true that
really tall women will never
be described as looking "darl
ing." She may look instead,
marvellous, handsome, ele
gant.
She can wear almost any
kind -of clothes becomingly,
with the exception of bills
and bows that rAost of us
have outgrown before we
reach our teens, anyway.
She has the advantage of
never looking dumpy, and the
middle-age spread will not
hold the terror for her that it
does for a short woman.
There are several points
about dressing that the tall
woman should keep in mind.
She should be alert against
too 'much material. She can
usually wear a voluminous
shirt or a voluminous skirt,
but not both.
.The tall girl should wear
shoes with heels. Flats are
Tine for a long walk, or for
doing homework, but heels
should be worn for most
other occasions. If you have a
large foot, and most tall
people do, you must forget
shoe designs that draw atten
tion to your feet. Instead, go
in for plain or tailored shoes.
Always wear longish
gloves, and big jewelry is your
dish. However, the same rule
of amount or number of
pieces applies to the tall wo
man as well as the short.
Choose two-color two-part
costumes whenever possible.
The Empire line is not a good
one for really tall women.
Choose, instead, the dropped
waistline. The new shorter
skirt length is a boon tp tall
gals.
The empty honors that the
world bestows do not last
beyond the grave.
