Kitzmiller Seeking
Community Building
Mrs. Caroline Wilson Offers to
Deed Site for Structure

Councilmen John Bishop, M. E.
Pritts and w. S. Arnold of Kitz-
miller, met with Joseph l. Lyons, area
engineer of the National Youth Ad-
ministration, Tuesday, June 8, to in
spect a site for proposed Commun-
ity building. Mrs. Caroline Wilson,
school supervisor who owns lot fac
ing the mill race of the north branch
of the Potomac river, has offered to
deed it to the Town of Kitzmiller,
provided Community House can be
erected upon it.
A project of this nature falls within
the scope of the NYA because it
would provide useful public work for
young people, and because the build
ing when completed would benefit all
youth in the community. The council
men present said that wholesome
recreational facilities were badly
needed. A hall for the holding of pub
lie meetings and entertainments, and
garage space for the town fire engine
are being incorporated into plans
which will be submitted to Mayor L.
B. Sharpless and the Council at an
early date.
1t was pointed out that native rock
can be used in constructing the
building and that a stock of material
cut and faced by NYA youth was al
ready on hand
Mrs. Thelma Ford Smith, area
home economics supervisor, was also
in Kitzmiller to view the work of the
NYA girls sewing shops.

ie something to be alarmed or pleased or worried about, according to your own ideas of what women should do in life.
 It means among other things that women in cities are working in far greater numbers than women in small towns and rural areas. For instance, more than 31 percent of the women in South Bend, Ind, are working for wages.
 When men lost their jobs, daugh- ters and wives went out to hunt work. Some of them were steno- graphers who had given up their jobs to marry. Others were young women who entered the labor mar ket for the first time
 The great increase in the service, trade and clerical occupations had ! lot to do with it. Women arc good at detail in such industries-good clerks, good comptometer operators, good stenographers and secretaries
 Machines a Factor
 The great increase in machines requiring only semi-skilled work CTS is another cause for this change There are many machines fairly easy to teach new woman operator.
