WHAT YOU ARE
If you have lived long
enough to suffer a great hurt,
you are old enough to have
sympathy and understanding
for your fellow man. Only
those who have traveled the
rocky road can tell how sore
ly the stones affect the feet.
Try a little patience with
the rest of the world. Do
YOUR job without complain
ing that someone else is shirk
ing responsibility. Give others
a chance to explain before
you start to complain.
Move out of that little
world you live in and see if
there isn’t a lot of good you
can do with only a minimum
of effort.

Minors Need
Permit to
Take Jobs
ATLANTA—Commissioner of
Labor Sam Caldwell today re
minded employers that an em
ployment certificate is required
by law before a minor may be
hired.
“The law defines a minor
as anyone under the ago of 18—
married or single,” Caldwell
said. “Employers and young
workers should bear in mind a
few legal restrictions on the
employment of minors.”
An employment certificate
(work permit), physical exam and
statement from the employer
are required before a minor may
be employed. The work permit
form is available at the office of
every school superintendent.
The employer must state in
writing that he has a position
for the minor before the permit
is issued, the commissioner
pointed out. “A minor cannot
secure a work permit, then go
looking for a job.”
A minor under 16 cannot work
more than eight hours in any
one day, more than four hours in
any day when school is in ses
sion or more than 40 hours a
week. A minor may not work
during the hours when school
is in session unless he has com
pleted high school.
Minors under 16 may not work
later than 9 p.m. and may not
be employed in a hazardous
occupation, in the vicinity of
dangerous machinery or in any
type of work which might en
danger their health or morals or
interfere with their education.
Boys 12 and over and girls
14 and over may be employed ir
wholesale 'or retail establish
ments, provided no alcoholic
- beverages are sold on the
premises.
Commissioner Caldwell point
ed out, however, that the above
restrictions do not apply to
agricultural employment, domes
tic service in a private home or
employment by a parent or
guardian.
‘‘Our young people want and
need employment experience
this summer,” Commissioner
Caldwell said, ‘‘and I urge
every employer to provide jobs
for as many of them as pos
sible.”
The employer’s final respon
sibility in employment of a minor
is to return his work permit to
the school superintendent who
issued it as soon as the minor
leaves his employ.
For additional information,
contact the nearest office of the
Georgia State Employment Ser
vice or the department’s Inspec
tion Division, State Labor
Building, Atlanta 30334.

William Elliott of Perry was
elected state treasurer of the

standing community service.
David Helms, Perry Jaycee
president, welcomed the 150 Jay
cees who came here for the exe
cutive committee meeting.
Watering plants can be an
expensive practice. However,
proper mulching will do a good
job of conserving water, ac
cording to Gerald E. Smith,
horticulturist with the Univer
sity of Georgia Cooperative
Extension Service. In fact,
conservation of soil moisture
is one of the greatest benefits
of mulching.

RETAIL SALES
JUMP IN COUNTY
Retail sales in Houston County
during the first quarter of 1968
totaled $18,418,000, as compared
to $14,904,000 during the same
period last year, an increase of
23.6 per cent, a Georgia State
Chamber of Commerce survey
showed this week.
Retail sales in Georgia totaled
$2,008,456 during the first quarter,
att increase of 16.1 per cent over
the same period of last year.
Only four counties, Glascock,
Pickens, Schley and Long re
corded decreases during the first
quarter as compared with the
same period of last yeas.
The large increases reported
are partly due to two changes in
reporting procedures; chain store
sales are now more accurately
shown in each county’s totals,
and excise taxes are now includ
ed as part of the retail sales.
