BETTY CANARY
Teens, Don’t Give Up in Job Hunt
By BETTY CANARY
Earlier this year I passed along tips to teen-agers who
were looking for summer jobs. The thing I failed to men
tion was that a person can be well-groomed, properly
dressed, prompt, equipped with certain skills, armed with
a good school record and yet spend the summer months in
the ranks of the unemployed.
A teen-aged girl from Ponca City, Okla., wrote asking me
why with her good grades, etc., she is unable to find
anything except waitress work at 65 cents an hour. She
also voiced the opinion that if the teens in her area (popula
tion around 24,000) could get jobs, then perhaps many of
them would not “get into trouble.”
The hard facts are that in many communities there are
simply not enough jobs around. For example, a recent
news story datelined Indianapolis, tells about 300 jobs
offered by area businesses while more than 4,600 job
applications jam the placement files of their local Youth
Employment Servipe.
The co-ordinator of the service is quoted as saying that
these youths are willing to do any type work offered that
the skills they have to offer are endless, and that the local
merchants are making a big mistake.
I spoke with the co-ordinator of a similar employment
service in a town of 40,000. The teacher who heads up
this program says that some businessmen in his area are
unco-operative and that, in some communities, business
men have offered two 20-hour jobs rather than one 40-hour
iob in order to include more students in their employment
pool. However, he also says that one of the biggest prob-

Miss Teresa Jones
ToWedMr. Goodman
Mr. and Mrs. Carl Franklin Jo
nes of Savannah announce the
engagement of their daughter,
M'.ss Teresa Hull Jones, to Mr.
W’nfred Star Goodman, son of
I '< r . and Mrs. William Augustus
of Griffin.
The wedding will be Septem
b«r 14 in the Isle of Hope Metho
dist Church.
Miss Jones, a graduate of Jen
kins Hivh School and Brewton
r’arker Junior College attended
Georgia Southern College. She
is employed by Levy’s of Savan
nah.
She is the granddaughter of
the late Mr. and Mrs. Charles
Boyd Hull and the late Mr. and
Mrs. Carl Franklin Jones Sr.,
all of Greenville, Tenn.
Mr. Goodman is a graduate of
Griffin High School and Middle
Georgia Junior College. He at
tended Georgia Southern College
and is employed by S. H. Kress
& Co.
He is the grandson of Mrs.
lems he has encountered is the complete lack of knowledge
and imagination some young persons have when it comes
to looking for a job. As a partial remedy, the high school
where he teaches will incorporate a short course in job
hunting in its curriculum.
Rather discouraging for the younger student is that, with
so many summer job hopefuls vying for jobs, the older
teens, those in the upper high school grades and in college,
are going to get first choice.
Girls find their choice more limited than do boys. Girls
cannot take just any job offered and concentrate on looking
for clerical or sales clerk positions. However, they should
bear in mind that accepting baby-sitting, waitress work or
ironing and housework are not exactly the end of the world.
(I speak from experience. I once bagged caramel corn as
a part-time job. THAT’S the end of the world.)
My teacher friend admits teens must sometimes grin
and bear it when potential employers make uncalled-for
remarks about the general laziness, bad manners and
lack of responsibility displayed by young people. He says
to swallow hard, get the job and prove the man wrong.
He acknowledges that many employers collect applications,
then, when they need a worker, do not bother checking
dates or qualifications but just take the one off the top. He
suggests starting early in the spring, then going back re
peatedly to check on possible openings. He also suggests
that students work on the art of selling themselves and
says that one personal visit to the store is worth a thousand
phone calls.

By United Press International
Air bubbles in varnish make it
almost impossible to obtain a
smooth finish, reports the
National Paint, Varnish and
Association. Here’s how
to avoid creating bubbles: do
not. stir dear varnishes. When
loading the brush, do not drag
bristles across rim of the can to
remove excess varnish. This will
cause tiny air bubbles to form
under the tips of the bristles.
I nstead, tap bristles lightly
against the inside of the
container just above the surface
of the varnish.
