Ten Tips Offered
Over-40 Job Seekers
The National Employment As
sociation, representing more than
7,600 private placement agencies
In the United States, advises ten
DO’S and DON’TS for women in
their forties who are planning
a come-back to work.
1. DO think seriously about
what skills you have to offer
several months before you EVEN
START job hunting.
2. DO take a refresher course
in general office work and pro
fessional training so you can
honestly assess the current stat
us of your skills.
3. DO take a long, cold, hard

Mr. and Mrs. Robert Budd of
Oxford have just returned from
a three week trip in Rocky Mo
untain National Park in Colo

son returned Sunday from an

on which they were accompanied
by their daughter, Mrs. Charles
Parker and children, Susan and
Chip, of Atlanta. Their itinerary
included visits with a son and
family, Mr. and Mrs. Arthur
Henderson, Jr. in Yorktown, Va.;
Mrs. Walter A. Henderson, Mor
ristown, N. J.; Mrs. Leon Ros

another son, Mi - , and Mrs. Alvin

Traffic Death
Rate Down For
First 6 Months
ATLANTA (GPS) Although
Georgia’s traffic death toll dur
ing the first six months of 1969
was slightly higher than a year
ago, the state’s traffic death rate
went down from 6.2 to 5.8. (The
national traffic death rate is bas
ed on the number of persons kill
ed to each 100-milllon miles tra
veled.)
This was revealed in a State
Patrol statistical report releas
ed by Col. R. H. Burson, direc
tor of the Georgia Department
of Public Safety.
During the first half of this
year, a total of 2,183,857 mo
tor vehicles were registered in
Georgia, an increase of 168,031
over last year. These cars and
trucks traveled a total 14,175,-
347,290 miles, an increase of
nearly 1.1-blllion miles.
“Naturally, we are pleased
that Georgia’s traffic death rate
contunues on the down swing even
in face of this ever-increasing
number of miles traveled, and we
think it is a tribute to the hard
working men of our patrol who
are assigned to police the lar
gest state east of the Mississippi
River,” Col. Burson said.
“But,” he added, “we are not
satisfied, and we won’t be satis
fied, until we can reduce both the
death toll and the death rate in
Georgia. Ulis can be done only
with more troopers — enough to
adequately patrol the 90,000 mil
es of roads in the state.”
On the death toll side of the
ledger during the 6-month period,
a total of 817 traffic fatalities
were reported, an increase of
six, or one per cent.
THE COVINGTON NEWS
look in the mirror (full length!)
to see if the sands have shift
ed unduly after those long years
on K.P. Consider whether a new
hairdo, a color rinse, new make
up and a body slimming course
wouldn’t do wonders for your
appearance and confidence.
4. DO try to get a good look
around the modern office of to
day-to see how methods and ma
chines have changed since you
were working.
5. DO be prepared to work
your way back gradually. Just
because you were private secre
tary to the president-or otherwise
“running the show” fifteen years
ago doesn’t mean you will get a
job of equivalent status immedia
tely.
6. DON’T — when you start
work - criticize new methods
and keep referring to how much
better things used to be.
7. DON’T try to compete with
teenagers in their mini skirts.
Use the skills you have acquir
ed with your own teenagers in
winning their confidence. Em
ployers will appreciate this.
8. DON'T creep into the em
ployment agency of the employ
er’s office apologizing for your
age. Nothing puts an employer
off more than dreariness and a
lack of confidence.
9. DON’T forget that stability,
reliability and good appearance
can take you three quarters of
the way in that first interview.
10. DON’T even consider a full
time job unless you have your
home arrangements well organiz
ed. Nothing Irritates an employ
er more than a married woman
who keeps asking for time offbe
cause Johnny has to go to the
dentist.
John E. Harmon, Executive
Vice President of NEA, has this
to say about the personnel situ
ation: “Employment agencies are
constantly seeking that “some
thing extra” that maturity adds
to basic ability. Employers are
equally hardpressed to fill vacan
cies with competent personnel on
all levels. A qualified person
who really wants to work, should
have no problem finding a job
that will meet his or her require
ments. We have been advising
employers for some time of the
necessity for recruiting on the
basis of a person’s ability to do
the work rather than on the basis
of race, age or sex. With the
tremendous shortage of compe
tent staff, there are now great
opportunities for all persons if
they honestly want to do a good
job.”
Three Newton
