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

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

How do we do it? The collars are made of genuine
