Man bout
Manhattan
By George Tucker

NEW YORK - Like the wood
chopper who approached so close
to the trees that he couldn't see
the forest, Ernest Williams is a
man who listens so closely to in
dividual notes that he never hears
the music. Symphonies and popular
tunes pour out of the window in
an unrecognized flood - all he
catches r the runs and solos of
the individual instruments.
This is one of the prices Will
liams pays for devoting so much
time to the training of soloists in
scores Of orchestras, symphonic
and popular, over the nation. Sit
him in the presence of the Detroit
symphony and he wouldn't be able
to tell you whether it was playing
Minnie the Moocher or something
by Tschaikowsky. But he could
explain in detail every note that
Leonard Smith played. Smith is
first trumpet man of the symptom
ny, and he is Williams boy.
Ernest has so many boys"
around the country that he ought
to be known as Pop, Fred Waring,
Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey, Vim
cent Lopez, Paul Whiteman and
Phil Spitanly r a few.
These boys" of his usually show
up at his camp and give lectures
at various times during the sea-
son. Williams camp is rather an
unusual thing. There are baseball
camps and prizefight camps. Will
liams operates a musical summer
camp. It is really a conservatory
under canvas Ambitious youngsters
60 to him with therir problems OF
the sax or the trombone, the fiddle
or the trumpet-and he works it
out for them. Today his camp has
grown from a single cottage to
20 buildings on a so acre plot,
at Saugerties, N. Y.
"You see," he says, there are
a couple of million youngsters who
come along every year who want
to become a Larry Clinton, or a
Toscanini, just the same as there
a couple of million youngsters who
want to become another Babe
Ruth. They need training. I'm here
to help them"
Physically and temperamental-
ly, Williams is an expansive hon.
bre who talks in punches. His in
strument was the trumpet. His
game was baseball. Years ago
he came out of Wayne county.
Indiana, with his eye on the big
city, but the Spanish-American
war interviewed, and it was some
time before he got to Manhattan.
Williams, who is one of the few
persons to whom the word indie
fatigable can accurately be ap-
piled, also has a musical school in
Brooklyn. Proudly he mentions that
he has played first trumpet for
Victor Herbert, for Stokowski, for
Gabrilowitsch, for Enesco and for
Goldman. He is the composer Of
a major opera, the first Ameri-
can symphony for a band, and he
is the author Of a text book on
cornet playing. Quite a boy. 2

not mean that most young people
walk the streets for two years be.
fore obtaining their first job. It
does mean that there is an enor-
NOUS turnover among new workers
before they find the job for which
they are suited.
On a national average, one in
six will be unable to find employ
ment, and will help to swell the
estimated total of 1000, 600 unem-
ployed young people under "a years
of age, which today represents
about one-third of the nations un-
employment problem.
After painting this gloomy pic
ture, there are a number of help
full suggestions based on studies
and findings of the American
Youth Commission, which a be
of value to the boy or girl in search
Of work.
The first suggestion is offered
more to parents than to young
people. for the search for a job
starts from the home. Parents
should realize that the aptitudes
and interests Of a o or daughter
may be quite different from their
own, and they should not be die
tatorial about occupational choice.
They should encourage voca-
tional exploration, but should dis
courage wishful thinking. Most
boys aspire to white collar jobs,
although 10 per cent are destined
to wear o%veralls.
Second, a boy or girl should seek
vocational guidance fr o m those
qualified to give it. If they are for
tunate, their school has a guidance
program.
. Even if an individuals school
does not offer guidance, it will be
wise to ask the school principal
or class teacher what he believes
he or she is best fitted to under
take. In the search for counsel
it will also pay to make inquiries
at the local Y. M. c. A. or Y. w.
c. A., for many branches offer &C.
cupational guidance for youth out
of school.
Third, most young persons fail
to register at the local public
placement agency. Creation OF a
network of public employment Of
fees is one of the great social
achievements of recent years,
which recognizes the public's re-
sponsibility for helping bring
workers and employers together.
Fourth, boys and girls unable
to find employment should consid-
err additional education. This is not
always possible, but the more edu-
cation one has, the better the
chances are of getting a job.
Fifth, if circumstances make it
impossible for a youth to continue
his education without assistance,
he may be eligible for the Civilian
Conservation Corps or for a Ma
tional Youth Administration schol-
arship or work project.
To know what one can do and
the fields in which there r the
greatest opportunities is half the
battle. It gives a sense of direc-
ton, and permits a boy or girl to
act with purpose. Above all. it
prevents aimless drift, which is de-
moralizing to character. !

cut on a bias, giving smooth, per-
feet fit and eliminating need for q

on the other hand, are made on o

without the use Of darts. You may
have shadow panels at both front
and back for DOUBLE PROTEC-

suited for summertime, making a

WOMAN,S REALM
Clarifying
Yourself
D. Aida HaEt


NEA service StSrr Writef
The best and quickest way to per-
suade yourself that it's important
to protect your hair from too much
sun and otherwise to care for 1t
properly during summer months Is
to remember how II looked last
September.
II you were one Of the few who
didn't have to worry about sum
bleached ends, dry scalp, grayish,
mousey look or some other hair
problem, you no doubt took excel
lent care Of your hair last summer.
Take the same precautions, repeat
the same routines again this year.
But II dozens Of reconditioning
treatments were necessary before
you dared get q new fall pernna-
nent, you no doubt were pretty
careless about caring for your hair
during July and August. Resolve
not to make similar mistakes this
year.
Don't expose your hair to hours
and hours Of hot midday sunshine.
A little sun every day Is fine for
hair and scalp, but overdoses will
dry to scalp and tend to make the
hair brittle. Wear a bandata or a
hat when golfing, snoozing on the
beach, or riding In an open car.
TRY OINTMENT AT
NIGHT BEFORE SHAMPOO
II possible, massage O special ONT
ment into your scalp the night be-
fore each shampoo. One Particular
" efflcacious ointment dissolves
bits of dry cuticle. When the hair
Is washed, every trace Of ointment
and all scales, however fine, disap-
pear.
II you carnot leave the ointment
on overnight, at least try to apply
It one hour before your shampoo.
After a swim in salt water, let
your hair dry, then brush until 1t
shines again. Now dampen stray
Cling ends and roll them up on
curriers' or make ringlets, as the
hairdresser does, and fasten with
invisible pins. Tie a wide piece OF
maline or tulle or colorful fish
net scarf around your head and let
the ringlets dry before rearranging
your coiffure for dinner.

EVERY ONE FOR HIMSELF
ABOUT THE CRI

For many years I have been striv-
ing to make the public spray con-
scious, believing that recognition
Of this usual mode Of infection ID
essential for prevention Of most Of
the illness doctors attend.
A considerable portion Of the
population and even some public
health authorities have accepted or
corroborated my observations and
teachings 50 far as cough spray and
sneeze- spray are concerned, and In
telligent people today have q healthy
fear OF this hazard. But I have never
gotten beyond first base with the
profession or the public in the en-
deavor to convince them that ordin-
airy polite conversational spray to
which one Is more or less exposed
in everyday life constitutes q greater
hazard because In the present state
of ethics one never can tell whether
the person with whom one chats Is
a conscientious citizen or a scoundrel
that Is, whether he or she frankly
acknowledges he has the cri or tries
TO conceal It or pass 1t on as sone-
thing harmless.
The censor silenced me when I
sought to teach this principle Of
