Advises Quitting Job Not Suitable Advice To Persons Not Liking Jobs By ROBERT KEANE United Press Staff Correspondent NEWARK, N. J. (UP) — So you’re 30 years old and don’t like ypur job. “Quit.” This is the acrvlce of Carrol M. Shanks, who gave up a career as a law professor at the age of 32. Today he is the $250,000-a-year president of the Prudential Insurance Co. “You’ve got to like what’s you’re doing,” Shanks in an interview at his officb here. “And if you don’t—you’re never too old to change —, provided, that is, you aren’t just hopping around. Gave Up Teaching Shanks himself was 10 years married, with two small children, when he decided in 1931 that teaching was not for him. He moved to a Manhattan law firm but again was disappointed. Finally, in 1932, he moved across the Hudson River to Newark and found at Prudential what he sought. By 1946 he was president of the company Now 58, the soft-spoken president says, “Many men leave school and pick—well, what seems a ‘glamorous' field. Maybe advertising. Then they find out they’re not suited for it. “Insurance, I imagine, doesn’t strike too many young people as glamorous. But for many of us it was the right field. And for a few —even in this building, I suppose —it wasn’t. They’d be wise to switch.” How about ths man who starts in the right field and wants to advance? Be Noticed ; “I think if I had one thing to tell a man like that,” Shanks, said, "it would be to always take the disagreeable jobs. . .it's not that the man who avoids disagreeable work will necessarily get fired. He probably won’t. But he won’t advance either ” ■“But when an opening comes, when you need a branch manager, you look to the man you've come to depend on, the man you iouldn’t help but notice,” Shanks said. Shanks believes career opportunities are better today than ever. “But if you turn the wrong way in the beginning, don't feel you have to stay that way/’ “A friend of mine just changed jobs at 57. You’re never too old.”

4-H Program Being Formed In Chicago Leadership Chief Program In City CHICAGO (UP')—Chicago teenagers soon may be sirtging “make mine country style.” Lawrence Biever. a genial Ph.D. from Minnesota and the University of Wisconsin, is organizing a 4-H program here in the big city. The program was the result of a grant of SIO,OOO from Coates and Clark Inc., a New York thread manufacturing firm and a $2,000 grant from the Sears Roebuck Foundation. It will be administered through the University of Illinois. But Biever said he needs help. “Beyond the obvious limitation a farm-type program runs into in the city we have the problem of leadership,” said Biever, “I just don’t know where we are going to get the people to help set this up.” He explained that the backbone of the AjH program in most areas was a pool of volunteer workers always ready to lend their talents, transportation or living rooms to "the cause.” A Varied Program "The program itself, as far as the girls go, won’t be too different from the country version,” said Biever. The projects are built around sewing, cooking and related "homemaker activities which are universal," he said “To keep the boys interested we are going to have to make some adjustments,” he added. Present plans along this line involve concentration on bicycle safety, pet care, handicrafts and a general health program. “Os course there is always a lot of overlapping along these lines," Biever said. He said he hopes to bring the city and farm programs “fairly close together” as the clubs develop. Trust Teens' Judgment "Mainly we are interested in developing leadership,” he said. “After the clubs are organized I ; am confident that the teen-agers will take over and operate them with little help.” Biever, a native of Lake Benton, Minn., has great faith in the ability of teen-agers to exercise good judgment and leadership. “In my experience as a county agent I always found that if you make a few suggestions as to what might be done in a situation the teen-agers can pick out the one that seems to make the most people happy,” he said. Biever said 4-H projects are now underway to Damw,-Jndiana-I polis, Detroit and some Nfew York City areas. Although little organizational activity will take place during the summer, Biever said he hoped to have some clubs ready to take part in the annual 4-H activity at the Illinois State Fair in 1958. Asked how he thought the citybred teen-agers would react to a “farm” club, Biever said, “Well they are always looking for something different I am told. This is different” 4-H Grounds Busy In Fair Preparation The 4-H fair grounds at Monroe will be the scene of much work next week as agricultural interests get ready for the 4-H fair, July 30August 1. Monday, the ladies will start work cleaning up the kitchen. Monday at 6 p.m. Homer Winteregg will have the lumber in the Adams Central school. The 4-H junior leaders will meet at 6 p.m. at the school and start setting things up, At 8 p.m. the extension committee executive committee, 4-H fair committee chairmen, and 4-H council members will meet to plan last minute arrangements and start work.
