Age No Barrier
To Good Jobs
SuyS Expert

New York, N. Y--The greatest
handicap of the person over IS
who is looking for a job is his
own belief that he is Of little
value any more. That is why so
many unemployed older men seek
jobs as watchmen when they ac-
tually have sltills and experience
which entitle them 10 a managers
role.
No matter what your age, says
DR.. w. O. Scott, adviser to the
Canadian National Employment
Service, you'n find It easier TO
get a good job than a poor one
IL you go about II the right way.
Nor Is the right way any Sc
cret, according to DR.. Scott in
the November Journal Of Living
magazine. II boils down to q pro-
gram which has been effective in
thousands of cases, even with
people over 90. Some Of the points
DR.. Scott makes are;
Think In terms OF new Job pos.
slbllltses. Be willing to expert
ment along new lines II physical
limitations or modern machine
improvements bar the way TO
your customary employment.
Look for n specific Job. When
you visit an agency or . prospec-
tive employer, have a list Of your
sl0ills and the kinds OF work you
can do. Employers don't give out
jobs because someone wants work.
II you yourself know what kind
Of Job you want, it's easier to fit
you into an opening
Appreciate yourself. Don't be
Apologize because Of your age.
Abilities don't vanish with the
years. While there are certain
occupations for which you may
be too old because of physical re-
quirements, remember that you're
not too old for everything. Switch
to the type of work within your
capabilities.
Good vocational counseling. adds
the Journal OF Living article, can
be Of immeasurable help. When
you visit such a counseling office,
draw up a list OF facts about your
self in addition TO the jobs you've
held. Sometimes hobby may turn
out to be the key that unlocks
the door to the job you've always
wanted.

CAMPHoR CHURCH NEWS

"And We are complete in Him,
which Is the head of all principal
ity and power. Col. 2-10, was the
theme Rev. Del Pine chose on
which to base his sermon entitled
The indispensable Christ"
We were told that Christ Is the
unique being of all our desires and
without Him, something is al
ways missing. OF what value is
prosperity If our hearts are not
right?
Worldly prosperity is subject to
decay, degeneration or complete
collapse but prosperity with
Christ as a foundation nourishes.
He can unite those at odds with
each other and enable them to
live, love, work and suffer to-
gether; With Christ in our lives
we are able to separate the val
liable from the valuless. In times
of prosperity people are too often
prone to forget God until He
brings them to their knees and
then the realization of what a
comforter He is, is brought home
to us.
Christ is indispensable because
He is the only one who is quahfi-
ed to show us exactly what God
demands of us, Rev. Del Pine
told the congregation.
He reveals Himself as a kind
and compassionate father, and is
a firm foundation on which to
build. He makes us cognizant of
our responsibility to God and
man. His supreme love makes us
selfless and above all, he teaches
reverence. This is a portrait of
the Indispensable Christ. Do you
know him?
Coming Events
Next Sunday afternoon at 4

Harvest Festival" program in

sent our pastor with a nice
