FOR ONTARIO Learning to Make Plastics IN Ontario the wheels of industry turn for the benefit of every single one of us. Our lathes, dynamos, drill presses, farm combines, tractors, business machines, etc.. are producing goods and services which earn dollars. These dollars provide food, clothing, medical care and other necessities which contribute to our security and high standard of living. Every single one of us, therefore, has a very personal interest in the flow of a steady supply of trained workers to industrial plants. These workers will operate machines which are important to our way of life. We should appreciate, then, the co-operative 'efforts' of government, industry and labour in the field of employee training. In schools andin factories our workers, young and old, are given the opportunity to develop new and specific skills in every field of •business and industrial activity. For instance, as in the pictures shown here, every effort of Ontario's newly -skilled plastics workers will mean better plastic products— will help to make Ontario a finer place in which to live and work. THE BREWING INDUSTRY (ONTARIO) Onr Way of Life Rewards Trained Hands Ontario workers know they can earn more, have executive responsibility and enjoy a higher standard of living in direct ratio to the skills they ac- quire and the way they lattice use of them. That's always true in a free economic — that's why our come.. petitive system will continue to make Canada great and a great place in which to live,
