HANDS AT WORK... for ONTARIO ONTARIO 'S "products arc desired and purchased by people all over the world and the capacity to produce such goods largely .determines the economic 'welfare of every man, woman and child within her borders. Because the sale of every article produced in Ontario brings valuable dollars into this Province, we all are more assured of job security . . and we and Our children can have more of the better things in life, T produce such goods in sufficient quantities, skilled labour is vital, That is why every single one of us should he glad that war veterans are constantly being trained to provide the skilled hands so needed by Ontario industry. They receive ON l'IlE JOB training under opett instructors in our Ontario factories. This training, provided through the co-operation of_the Department of Veterans' Affairs, the Federal Department of Labour and the Ontario Department of Educa- tion, starts veterans on the toad to skilled eraftsmanship. Taught to use their bands in such jobs as routing, etching, stripping, burnishing and finishing, they will eventually become photo engraving craftsmen. Because of the increasing hit" portanee of this trade, every effort of these newly-skilled workers helps to make Ontario a finer place in which to ,live and contributes to the welfare and happiness of all her citizens.
