High school and college
graduates today are interested
in going where the action is
?and some may not realize
'hat there is an abundance of
room for excitement and
achievement in every industry,
especially Textiles?if
the young people have what
it takes.
There is always room for
those who can face the challenge
to get things done ?

There is room at the bottom
niit! all the way to the top.
Vint this enthusiastic drive
must be nurtured and encouraged,
for the transition from
educational theory to practical
application is not always easy.

of management and the
comicration of each and every
company employee.
As high school and college
graduates e n t e r the
working force, some will
come up with ideas for new
and better ways of doing
tilings; many will be content
to si t on their hands and
watch the world go by.
