able to make real Roadway before the
summer slump comes along.
So far we've talked about the calen-
dar as an aid to unemployed people.
But how about those who are already
working. and who know from bitter
experience that their occupation is
seasonal? Carpenters, for example. are
paid high wages by the day. But they
live by the year, and few of them ever
hear the crisp crinkle of pay check
during the cold winter months. Com
bining two seasonal jobs can mean a
lot in terms of annual income.
Coal and icemen are among the
Evening star., 1940-03-24

best examples of profitable seasonal
combinations They keep hustling on
their ice routes during torrid summer
months when they can't give coal
away, then fill their order pads with
coal commitments during months when
housewives are paying to have ice
shoveled from their doorsteps. If you
are a worker in seasonal occupation,
keep an eye open for similar combina-
tions.
The weatherman, of course, is the
big boss in this matter of what season
you can 60 to work. But some occupa-
tions have seasonal swings all their
own. The auto shows in the fall and
white sales" in January and August
dictate periods of employment for
hundreds of thousands in the auto
mobile plants of Detroit and the cot
ton mills of North Carolina. The
Christmas Spirit is the biggest of all the

9r'S a peculiar fact that the very
same employment managers who

do hire plenty of calendar watchers
The calendar watchers are on the spot
when employers need them.
spent a whole afternoon going
over the annual hiring records of
large department store with its per-
scnnel director recently. We found
that more than two-thirds of all the
new workers hired during an average
year were taken on during the months
of November, December, and the
thirty days preceding Easter.
"As you'd expect" he told me. our
business is highly seasonal. We nearly
double our force during the height of
the Christmas season. And our hir-
ing approaches another peak around
Easter.
so, except for highly specialized
work, nearly all the people who land
jobs with US are the ones who have
sense enough to apply at the right
times"
This example is typical of the hiring
policies followed by great many
business concerns. Careful calendar
watchers know when boom seasons
occur; greenhorns waste energy by
applying when regular workers are be-
ing laid off.
Industry is geared to split seconds.
but it looks whole seasons ahead in
planning schedules. Right now. in
March, for example. spring blowing
and seeding are calling hundreds of
thousands to work on Southern farms.
Many more thousands of building and
construction workers are beginning to
hammer and drill and blast in the
North. Department stores are bright
ening up after the long post Christmas
dOldrums.
On the other hand, coal mines are
beginning to lay off men. Laundrles,
for some obscure reason, are at the
very lowest point of their years activ-
ity, and the amusement business is
slack.
It's rare industry that doesn't fol-
low the ups and downs of the seasons.
Even the telephone business, which is
Just about the steadiest and most
stable of them all, has its lowest
moments this month. Other fields roam

over the calendar like the line on a
fever chart. There's not much sense in
looking for a job on a Great Lakes ore
boat in October, or in submitting de-
sign for a Christmas card in December.
Employment Offices in radio factories
hang up No Help Wanted signs in
June, as do refrigerator plants in
September.
Job-hunting in seasonal industries
is lot like flying a glider. A glider
pilot can often soar for hours If he
finds rising air current and rides sky
ward with it. Workers who ease into
job on rising current of business have
a chance to show employers what they
can do. Their temporary jobs often
become permanent And even if they
are laid off later. they have piled up
valuable experience. This work expert
ence is especially useful to young
people, who are often turned down by
employers because they have no work
record.
The smart lad and his elder would
do we'll to look around the corner of the
calendar and study the seasonal varia-
tions of the occupations that interest
them. This month, for example, the
retail trades are beginning to recover
from their t-Christmas slump, as
typifed by the case of the department
store l mentioned. They are already
hiring many thousands of workers all
over the country. and will continue to
hire more during April. But the whole
sale trade is in the depths of its slack
season.
Evening star., 1940-03-24

Farm-implement plants are now
busy making machinery to be used on
the Great Plains this summer. Mil
linery shops are working overtime for
the spring trade. and shoemakers are
at the peak of the year. But paper and
printing concerns are cutting their
working force, as are food professors
and textile plants.
These trends are national averages,
and they may not always hold true
for your own locality. But you can
easily check up on trends in your own
town, and the knowledge of When to
look where may give you decided
advantage.
Generally speaking, September is
the best single month of the year in
which to find a job. March ranks
second. But other months contain
opportunities galore, and the job
hunter who gets going now should be
Evening star., 1940-03-24

seasonal bosses in opening and shut
ting job opportunities. but thoughts
of Easter bring thrill to the dress
making trade as early as the month
of January.
Even when job-hunters take the
calendar into account, few of them lay
their plans far enough ahead. The best
time to look for a job is not when an
occupation is already booming. 1t is
Just before the boom starts, when pro-
duction plans are being laid and new
workers are being trained and broken
in on the job. You should also remem-
Der that most industries keep from
two to as many as six months ahead
of consumer-buyings seasons.
Finally. you can use your knowledge
of seasonal shifts in jobs if you are one
of those fortunate people who can be
choosy about your work. Check your
possible choices against chart show
ing seasonal variations. You may find
that job that pays high hourly wages
is in a field that lays off most of its
workers for long periods each year. An
apparently low-paid job in more
stable occupation might mean higher
annual income - and you have to live
by the year. even if you get paid by
the hour
There's lot of difference in the way
various occupations are affected by =
the seasons. Oil refineries are fairly
steady throughout the year. So are
such industries as cement, ciga-
rettes, furnace-making. shipbuilding,
silver, leather and the utilities. But
the seasonal layoffs in such fields as
millinery, radio plants, women's cloth
ing - all very sensitive to consumer
demand - are bad news.
Of course. there's always chance
the enterprisng job-hunter can attach
himself to the pay roll of business
during its off season if he has some
thing special to offer and a rabbits
foot in his pocket. But as long as
wo-out-of-three chance looks better
than one out -of-thr the odds favor
the man or woman who thinks of the
calendar at the same time they look
for a job.
