The most active arid powerful of theSe is the Liter- ary Society. The executive of the Literary So- ciety is Wingham's ,ceunterpart of the usual students' council, It handles most student activities such as danc- es, tea dances, literary meetings etc, as well as co-operating very fully with the principal and staff in dis- cussing various behavior rules about the school. The society, besides hand- ling its own finances, also looks after those of the girls' and boys' athletics, They set the admission to all school games, and are kept very busy in general with inter-form sports as well as the usual inter-school teams. Last year it was suggested that, since the first 'year students would have no chance to get acqquainted With the senior students who would be running for offices, it would be advisable to hold elections for these three executives" in the spring, This idea was adopted and last spring the executives, except for the form rep- resentives, were elected, The literary executive for 1952-53 is: president, Donald • Dickison; 1st vice president, Jean Hobden; 2nd. vice president! Bill Connell; secre- tary, Ruth Webb; treasurer, G. B. Porter; marshall, James Gaunt; pro- phet, Clifford Coultes. The boy's athletic president is Ray Lott. Presi- dent of the girl's athletic society is Eleanor Browne. Teen Town Opens On Friday night the teen town members of the Wingham District High School held the opening dance of the fall and winter season in the council chambers of the town hall. A good, crowd attended and everyone had lots to eat and a good time, We don't really mind dancing to records, you know, especally when it is rumoured that the teen town exe- cutive is saving money for a dance with a real live orchestra! Mr. Ferguson was the jovial chap- erone on Friday night and of course everything went smoothly under his guidance. The date of, the next dance has not yet been• decided but it won't be too far away. Catherine Keating. The Beauty Parlour About 3,000 years B.C, there was a Cretan king /called Insipides who fell in love with three women. He loved each one equally well and could not choose between them. The seven soothsayers of Crete all advised him to marry the one with curly hair. Insipides immediately did so, and lived happily ever after. •Of what importance is the romance of this insignifcant little king? We shall now see, Ever since Insipides made his choice, curly hair has been considered more beautiful than straight hair, Because woman's chief aim is to be beautiful, she must make her hair curl regardless of price. In the time of- Insipides women pasted their hair into curls with greenish mud called glubus. Gradually the coiffures be- came more and More elaborate, until a woman had to be hired whose sole occupation was to arrange a lady's MR. A.

One of these women set up a shop where he dressed the hair of common women, and thus the illst beauty parlour was born. It is interesting to note the tortures that a woman willingly Suffers, all because Insipides apparently liked curls. She Blimps a hair-dresser to wash her hair with much vigor and large quantities of soap; then sticks her head into a machine and lets a Small cyclone rage until the hair has the consistency of wheat straw, She lets it be anointed with reeking pinkish goo and twisted up on curl- ers. She sits patiently with twenty pounds ,of hardware on her head being fried lightly on all sides. After a session of setting, another cyClone and a final combing, she departs from the beauty parlour, very happy because she is well curled. Among the many miracles per- formed in the beauty shop is the transformation of brown hair to golden, and vice versa, and the re- clailning of aging faces, Here too we see the influence of Insipides' wife. Though her hair remained a nonde- script mousy shade to the day of her death,., her face retained a remarkable degree of youthfulness, This indi- cates that change-of-face tricks were practised in the first beauty parlour along with hair curling. We see now that the little king of Crete set 'off a long chain reaction, culminating in the modern beauty parlour. Ever since his day the idea has prevailed that men prefer curls. It is an interesting fact that Insipides did not care at all about curls. He was merly following the advice of soothsayers who had flipped a coin to see which woman he should Marry.
