My problem is my father. He} wants me to go to college after I graduate this spring. I don’t want. to. He always wanted to go to{ college but‘ didn’t get to finish high school. So now he keepsi harping about all the educational chances he is giving me and that‘ I’m not taking advantage of them proper. I don’t like school very well and have only gotten average marks. I stayed and finished high school only to keep peace in the family. Mother thinks I should do what dad wants. She never crosses him and he thinks he is a little dictat or.'rhisisthefirsttimeanyone in the ianuiy has ever crossed him for any length of time. Every night at supper table he brings it up again. Its getting so that we all hate to sit down at the table. ItPays ‘ 9’17 95' . ThreeLarQe T 03‘” _ L 9 Floors to at GIiQQ'S “The Trading Center of the Tri—City Area" Serve You 2 804 W.

Low PRICES ‘ WCK (WASH) COURIER-REPORTER_ I want to go to beauty school and learn to be an operator. I like to work with hair and fix both my sister’s and mother’s hair alll the time. I feel that I could be‘ happy doing that and I don’t need a college degree for it either. 1 Can you, Mrs. Lee, tell me some way I can persuade Dad to let‘ me run my own life. Otherwise I’ll just run away and go to a. larger city and make my own way. But this would hurt mother and I don’t like to do that as it might be bad for my little sister who is just 14 and she might think she ‘could do likewise if she didn't get her own way. I wouldn’t want 'to be responsible for her doing anything like that. I’m almost 19 ’and could take care of nurse!!! Student ' Dear Student, You are quite right about not wanting to be responsible for your sister. And she might try and fol low your example and leave home itcroased. Sol wouldonlyuse that method if all else tailed. You might hold it in reserve in case your father continues to refuse you. I'm afraid your father wanta'l you to go to colege only because he never got that chance. Actually' there are a lot of educated tools: in college. It is all right to go to? college if you are going for a speC-‘ ilic thing. But to just go for the sake of going is foolish. It you wanted to be a teacher it would be necessary to go to college, but to be a beauty operator it is not necessary. Operators make a good living and if it is added knowledge tyour father wants you to have. ‘there are numerous extension ‘courses you could take. But I‘m !afraid it isn’t just added know ledge he is after. It is the pres tige of having a daughter inJ college. Actually college prob ably isn't at all like your tather‘ anticipated it. If possible. ace it you can't make Wu for him to visit one of the col leges and talk to the student Enid”. They can probably make him see better than you just what a waste it would be to send you to college. Once the glamor is removed. he might feel different about it.
