(staff photo). More lobs Man .otpotted. for students this summer • Finding a summer job is no easy task. Every year students face an uphill battle constantly in - competition foravailable jobs, constantly banging on the doors of unwilling employers. - ----But there is .no need to despair. There are people who understand the problem, are willing to help and in fact have - 'already done Most of the work. two such people are Gary Walden and Mary Anne Gielen of the Student Manpower Centre in Goderich. Gary and Mary Anne opened up at their new quarters on the •corner of Kingston and Victoria Streets last week and are anxious to plase students in a variety of jobs. Gary lives in the Goderich area and. is a graduate of the University of Western Ontario engineering 'program. He worked in the Goderich area student manpower, centre last year and will be working at the centre through t� the beginning of September. Mary Ann is a native of Crediton who will be entering her fourth year of home economics at UWO •in the fall. This is the first summer that she has been employed with manpower and will divide her time between Goderich and Huron Park. Although 4the student pladement centre opehed its doors just last week Gary has been busy since January doing the necessary leg work of contacting prospective em- ployers to set up job op- portunities. The student centre operates under the auspices of Canada Manpower and Gary insists that by having a separate location the students more readily identify with it. The ,Goderich 'centre will service the majority of Huron 'County but there is also a branch office in Huron Park which will service the Exeter - Grand Bend area. Mary Ann will assist at the Huron Park branch one day per week which will also be in operation until the beginning of September. During the, past week Gary has been visiting high schools in the county to inform students about the student Manpower centre and the services that it makes available to ,students. The centre may have only been open for a limited time ' but Gary is optimistic about its success. "The response has been good lately 1 was really surprised," he said "I think -it's going to be a good year for students here.". He attributes -that confidence to the experience of working with student manpower last summer which .meant rnuelt less time becoming oriented with the operation. The con- tacts had already been made. Gary abaftdoned an official opening to avoid patronizing the one town where the centre is located. However, now that things are in operation the centre will begin a promotion program to make the public and prospective . employers aware of the services available. "Many people including factories just 'don't know that we exist," he said. "Some employers are still going through the guidance depar- tments at the high schools." Another facet of the services offered by the centre that will be stressed this year is part- time labour. Numerous younger people not seeking full time employment make themselves available to homeowners for such odd jobs as washing cars, painting and cutting grass. Last year the ' part-time employment venture was not as successful as an- ticipated mainly because the public was not aware of the service. •"Employers think they have to be a factory or a construction company „ to hire students," Gary said. "We want to promote the part-time work this summer." In the short time the centre has been open Gary is more than satisfied with the response of employers. Already the lobs available range from factory labor to sales jobs to am- bulance drivers. Last year the centre was able to fill almost all of the vacancies it had and only a few students were left without jobs. They were mainly younger students in search of part-time labor., • However, ,the . centre does experience some difficulty'with placements in 'the outlaying areas of Huron County. Simply a matter of gebgraphy 'the response by , employers and employees gets worse the farther it is from the Goderich centre. Gary Gary would like to establish an office in Clinton as well which would, .ber' iflore .central to the needs of the county. If he receiveg-a- good -response from -students and employers in Clinton then he, y approach council for approval of the scheme. It is not always easy to find a summer job- and at times it can seem like a painfully slow process but with .two capable people to do most of legwork it, sure makes the prospects look a little brighter. Bats are beneficial Bats feed on mosquitoes and other night -flying insects; many. Of which' are annoying and destructive pests. For this reason, it is best not to destroy bats, but to keep them out of buildings. Illumination of attic, -areas with spot lights or 'safety lamps during June, July and August will discourage bats from roosting there. They may, also be repelled by naphthalene or paradichlorobenzene (moth flakes or crystals). Three to .five pounds of moth crystals sprinkled in an average -size attic during warm weather should drive bats out. 4 )111r,.• . , , r 444 r I 13 lucky winners of New Idea cordlets Electric Riding Mowers! $11661'5'21E1 A winner a week for 13 weeks!
