The vocational education movement was prompted in large part by rapid industrialization resulting in a shortage of skilled labor in factories at the same time that more immigrant families were moving into cities and sending their children to public schools. In addition just a year after the passing of the Smith-Hughes Act Mississippi became last state to enact a compulsory education law which caused an additional influx of students to public schools.

She details in the letter to young Leola Mahood 1911-1998 a prospective student that “the course is one thousand hours over a period of six months’ time; the school hours are from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. with a half hour for lunch. The regular price is $ 200.00 but for a limited time we are giving a special rate of $ 125.00 cash.†Stall’s trained beauticians had a reputation for hair work in Pacific Northwest salons focused on new permanent waving including the “Croquinole Wind†the very latest in permanents featuring modern equipment and also instructed in the Madame Eugenie facial. Apparently young Mahood had several questions as the October 16 1931 letter from Mrs. Stall advises her that the Pacific School did not pay students a percentage for their work and did not obtain places for room and board but very often could advise. Stall with an 8th grade education managed to successfully operate the school through World War II with her partner Dee Dartnall who not only worked as instructor but continued the school into the 1960’s in Portland.
