PURE-ETHYL Gasoline with Pure FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1951 High School Seniors Train On-The-Job Newberry High School is again proving to be one of the most progressive schools in the state in the field of diversified oc cupations. Under a special train ing program students are placed in the field of commerce '-while they get their education. This operates only in communities chat offer commercial courses in high school. T^o schools in South Carolina — Newberry and Sumter—have such a program this year. Diversified occupations com mercial program is a parttime vocational one operated through the co-operation of the school and progressive - minded businessmen in the community. Through this plan girls are placed in the local business establishments in order to gain practical experi ence in their chosen field. The girls, all seniors, are placed in the offices tjy the co ordinator, Miss Ila Mae Suber, for a period of six weeks probation. If after this time the girls are doing satisfactory work, they are employed for the remainder of the school year. Many times tL.s experience leads to perma nent employment. The course of study at school includes typing, shorthand, book keeping, and general secretarial procedures. These subjects teach fully the problems a good secre tary encounters in an office. The texts are modern and are edited by people skilled in the field of commerce. The. schedules of the girls-par ticipating in the program are ar ranged so that they may begin work at two o’clock; and although they are working mainly for exr perience, they are paid salaries equal to those of a beginner, the seniors are graded by score sheets given to the employers; and if the work is commendable they earn one and a half credits toward their diplomas. Students eligible for D. O. Secretarial are selected on the basis of their neatness, their ability, and their desire to par ticipate in the occupational pro gram. Other factors considered are initiative? energy, seriousness of purpose, loyalty, and depend ability. The folowing girls have al ready been placed in excellent positions and are doing commend able work: Jean Cromer, Gilder & Weeks Drug Store; Joan Franklin, Baker’s Finance & Insurance Co.; Patricia Livingston, McCrory’s Stores Corp.; Helen Mays, Martha Parks; Grace” Morris, Newberry Co. Mem. Hospital; and Anna Rae Thrift, Well’s Theater. % 2V Kjfstsmg Since the axe was one of the very first tools used by man, it has held a prominent place in mankind’s customs. The ancient veneration ' for it has a faint modern counterpart in the care and respect shown an ax by the man who must use it frequently. He doesn’t like to see anyone else use his axes, so the best thing is to buy your own and not borrow one for a camping trip. If you wonder what ax you should buy, here are suggestions from veteran outdoorsman Bill Wolf. An ax should fit the job at hand. In a very broad sense, this means it should be as large as the user can conveniently handle. The person who has a fixed cabin or camp, or has to do much timbering would be foolish to use a small hand ax. The person who has to carry an ax into the woods on his body would be just as foolish to .take a big heavy-headed, long-handled woodsman’s ax with him. How ever, he shouldn’t carry the small est, lightest thing he can find, either. We’ll start with the big babies and work down. .Let us say you have a cabin requiring much fire wood. You will want an ax with a head weighing from three to five pounds, a handle measuring not less than 32 inches, with 36 inches preferred. The choice of single bit or double bit, straight or curved handle is up to you. If limited to just one ax, I’d say get a single-bitted one with a curved handle because it can be used for cutting, splitting and pounding. Get a straight handle on the double bit. If the ax is to be carried on a packsack camping trip, its weight and length of handle are of great importance, Handle lengths will range from 24 - to 28 inches, weight of the head from 2 to 2% pounds. The choice is pretty much a personal one and the buyer should ask himself: Does it feel right? Does it swing right? an it be carried in or on my pack without the handle' pro truding to catch on brush? The so-called belt axes, hand axes or camping axes are minia tures of the fore-going. They have a distinct place in the out door scene, but the camper who expects to do much chopping should not depend on one of them alone. They £}re useful for chopping kindling and for sharpening and pounding stakes, but they will tire the person who RITZ THEATRE ITS INSIDE THURSDAY, FRIDAY & SATURDAY Jane Powell, Danielle Darrieux, Wendell Corey, Fernando Lamas Vic Damone Rich, Young And Pretty • (In Technicolor) Fox News MONDAY & TUESDAY WEDNESDAY Dean Martin, Jerry Lewis, Ruth Hussey, Marion Marshall, Polly Bergen, Tom Harmon, Eddie Mayehoff That’s My Boy i M.G.M.
