When the school is completed. two of these citizens are selected by the .girls to attend the auxiliary's "Girls Nation" in Washington, D. C. which is held the first week of August. Her6 the girls are taught the functions of our government on a National level. They attend the church of their choice on Sunday morning.

The fact that they are serving in office is really not much different than serving the public in any other way except that everybody knows everything yoii do.
