Want A Job? Then
 Read The Newspapers
Events Make News; Events Determine JObs," Says
 Dr.. Walter B. Pitkin, Author and Psychologist

Controller Sees Need for Trained Bankers" County Manager Plan- ned" etc. The story in each case gives helpful details.
 "The next time some jobless youth of maid reports forlornly that he feels unwanted in this cruel world" he recommends to those adults who want to help, suggest kindly that he retire to the nearest public library with stack of news- papers, and let him look for jobs be- hind the news. Equally important, if he seeks Q career In fields which seem overcrowded, let the news warn him against making the heartbreaking mistake of following through where he hasn't Q chance"
 And how can young people make the most of the news2 pr. Pitkin summarizes as follows:
 "i. By genuinely reading the daily papers, just for a change. We have too many young cornic-strip artists, and too few thorough news paper readers.
 "2. By subscribing to a top-notch metropolitan paper.
 8. By reading local papers from many parts of the. country when possible. Dozens of these are usuai- ly on file in public libraries.
 "4. By keeping scrapbook of all information bearing on the ca- recrs the young people would like to consider.
 "5. In short, by becoming alert well-informed citizens who recog- nize that wide information and the intelligent interpretation of news, not the job want-ads, ought to de- termine their successful careers.
 For further details" he con- cludes, "see your daily newspaper"

FROM LINCOLN THE MAN OF THE FEOFLE "when the Morn Mother saw the Whirlwind Hour Oreatening and darkenlng as 1t hurried on, Sine left the Heaven of Heroes and came down TO make man to meet the mortal need.
