N. Y. A. Offers
Courses For Many
Defense Jobs
Today in this mechanized, war
wrecked world, the man on the pro
duction line is as vital as the man on i
the firing line. And America, for her ’
own defense, needs both workers in
coveralls and soldiers in khaki.
To this new American army of pro
duction Seminole County may soon be
contributing boys and girls who,
through the National Youth Admini
stration’s expanding Youth Work De
fense Program, will have a chance to
oecome these urgently-needed indus
trial, according to Miss Anne Mizell, ;
local personnel representative for the
N- Y. A. in Cairo.
In tune with America’s prepared-!
ness effort, the N- Y. A, now is di
recting its resources toward prepar
ing youths for specific jobs in defense
industries.
"Under u special appropriation
from Congress," Miss Mizell explain
ed in an interview yesterday, "the
agency plans to send 368,000 young
people a year into defense work doing
■ vitally necessary jobs in shipyards,
radio, the country's machine shops,
I and in similar industries. In Georgia
alone during the next year about 8.-
000 will leave N. Y. A. projects to
> help keep the production line moving.”
Miss Mizell, who serves this area in
selecting boys and girls for assign
ment to work projects, interviews
youth applicants every Friday at the
Public Welfare office in Donalsonville.
Yonng people interested in employ
ment may also register at any time
; with Miss Sybil Avirett at this same
office.
Seminole County youths who quali
fy for the N. Y. A.’s out-of-school
work program will be assigened to
one of the 17 resident centers in Geor
gia, operated to provide boys and girls
between 16 and 24 with work exper
ience which will help them secure pri
vate employment, according to Miss
Mizell.
4t the resident centers throughout
thp state, youths live 24 hours a day
from periods ranging from three
months to a year, most of them leav
ing to accept jobs in private industry,
she pointed out. Boys receive work
experience in agriculture and in a
variety of shops including machine,
sheet metal, wood, automechanics,
foundry, forging, welding, radio re
pair, electricity, and others. Girls are
offered “on-the-job” experience in
production sewing, crafts, homemak
ing, fgnnjng, gardening, radio, and
light shop w«i<k,
N. Y. A. workers get no hand-outs,
no scholarships, no loans, Miss Mizell
emphasized. “They are on the job pro
ducing, and for actual work perform
ed receive substance and $lO in
cash each month,” she said. “They
make office equipment, for instance
for publjp agencies which could not
obtain it otherwise, P.qys jp Jhe auto
mechanics shops keep the fleet of goer
ernment cars in repair, and N. Y. A.
radio workers are making portable
transmitters for Georgia state patrol
cars.”
Training directly related to pro
duction work is offered youths by the
county board of education through
federal funds earmarked for this
purpose,
Although ppiphasjs js placed pro
marijy upon giving ycgjfhs wqrk ex
perience which will increase fhejr
chances for jobs in private industries,
employees at resident centers also en
joy various recreational activities,
such as radio listening groups, ath
letics, and forms. They practice de
nocracy through a youth governing
council which enforces discipline in
the dormjtorjes, operates a canteen
for common profjt, and spqpsqrs so
cial functions,
Mr. and Mrs, T- A, Hornsby, of At
lanta, were guests of relatives and
friends here Sunday and Monday,

“THE MENACE OF DIPHTHERIA”
What is Diphtheria? Diphtheria is
a germ disease. It is caused by a
special kind of bacillus which finds
the most favorable place for its de
velopment on the membranes of the
surface of the throat. Diphtheria is
most often considered a childhood
disease and nearly all children are
susceptible. During the pre-school age
their resistance Is as |ts lowest, and
is not much higher by the time they
enter school and are exposed to many
avenues of contagious diseases Most
of the deaths occur during the second
and third years of life, while the larg
est proportion of the cases of diph
theria occur during the fifth and sixth
years of life. The period from the
second year to the tenth year of life
is the most dangerous so far as dip
theria is concerned. It is for this rea
son tha{; physicians qnd Public Health
Nurses everywhere urge parents to
give young children the benefit of the
new means of protection by carrying
a baby as soon as it reaches its sixth
month of life either to their private
physician or the County Health office
for vaccination. This is a very simple
vaccination which has to be given
with a needle but one that usually
does not give much if any reaction
and does not make the babjes arm
Very sqrg.
Wp would POt pontmue to have
deaths in this county from diphtheria
if the parents wound take advantage
of the opportunity they have for vac
cination by carrying their children to
County Nureses Office (Mrs. Cumbie)
on Saturday afternoon on the first
floor in the Court House. Diphtheria
and typhoid immunizations may be
gotten each Tuesday afternoon by
meeting Mrs. Cumbie in the main
Court Room. Conferences for the well
children from six months old to six
years of age are held twice a month
on Tuesday afternoon. The second
Tuesday in the month is for white
children and the fourth Tuesday is for
colored children. Diphtheria vaccina
tion may be gotten at these confer
ences, as well as physical examination
for. the child.
