STATE OFFERS
JOB SERVICE AS AID TO PUPILS
Employment Bureau Hopes To Co-operate With Schools on Plan. A program to assist pupils in
finding employment when they leave school has been worked out
" ° by the Indiana State Employment
Service, it was announced today.
- The program is to be presented to
Schools Superintendent DeWitt S. Morgan, according to George J. Smith, district manager of the service. “Our service, with the data we have collected and with the results of our constant study of trends in modern industry and
" business, can be of great aid in
forming high school curricula,” Mr. Smith said. “The..employment service has at its fingertips the knowledge of what employers need. We can foresee changes in the professions and it is our desire to be the connecting link between the high school pupil of today and the gainfully employed person of tomorrow.” The primary purpose of the program, which has been established successfully in Evansville, Ft. Wayne, East Chicago, Gary, Hammond and South Bend, is to point out to the schools what professions are becoming obsolete and what professions hold the most promise for employables, Mr. Smith said.
Plans Visits to Schools
Raymond C. Means, who has been transferred from the administrative office to manage the Junior Department of the Employment Service, explained that his division has jurisdiction over persons between 18 and 21. “As Junior Counselor under the proposed program, I shall be able to meet, upon invitation, with teachers and their principals and discuss employment problems,” Mr, Means said. “We do not wish to interfere with the placement bureau which Tech High School is now conducting but to aid those schools which have no bureau of their own and to supply them with the knowledge we gather in our own line of research. “It is only logical that we can supply this service since we are already established and can aid the schools in a service which if they were to do it privately would cost many thousands.”
Registration First Step The plan calls for each pupil who leaves school to register at the employment bureau. Also a card giving the courses studied, the grades made and the physical fitness of the pupil is to be filled out by school authorities. “The schools,” Mr. Means said, “can provide the choice of vocation and the training; we can supply placement and then follow through.” “The follow through, he explained, is the checkup after employment to see that the person is succeeding and fitted for his position. “In giving our aid to the schools. we hope that we may be able to
prevent pupils from spending two
or three years in studies that will not aid them in the work they are fitted for,” he said.

This is the way “Dutchess Hill Cottage,” Presid ent Roosevelt's telephoneless “dream house” near his boyhood home at Hyde Park, N. Y., will look when it is completed next month. In lower left corner of the sketch, the President is credited with being the architect. The floor plan shown above was drawn by President Roosevelt himself.
EW YORK, Oct. 13 (NEA) —Everybody has a dream house—even the man whose present ad-
windows, the one-story house will face west and will be about 90 feet in length. Like most dreant houses, the President’s has a large fireplace in the living room, which is to serve also as a dining room. Unlike most houses that boast only two bedrooms, the President’s has a wing designed for servants’

to suspend operations because of fire, income stops and customers are lost to competitors,” he said. “In addition to the loss to owners and investors, the tax roll suffers, wage earners are thrown out of employment, their purchasing power is reduced and the whole business community feels the effects.”
