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, FOR EFFICIENT j I Pressing, Cleaning | I And Dyeing ' | LEON’S CLEANERS I CALL 30 | »■ ■ ■ ■ ■ « »«•*.« FOR SALE—I - One horse corn mill See Bryant Chandler.

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.
