Anniversary Services kind of courses are available and how long are they? What are the necessary qualifications? These are just some of the questions the unemployed workâ€" er may ask. The local National Employâ€" ment Service has the necessary information regarding Schedule 5 â€" Training for the Unemployâ€" _ Under this program, the Fedâ€" eral Department of Labour conâ€" tributes a portion of the operaâ€" ting cost. The responsibility for establishing courses rest with the provinces and considerable planning and study has been done so that the unemployed worker may benefit as quickly as possible, from the investment of time which he has allotted for training under this program. Where then, does the unemployâ€" ed person go to find the neces sary information regarding this training? Who is eligible? What The unemployed worker faces keen competition, particularly those seeking unskilled or semiâ€"skilled work. The more skills a worker has, the better are his chances of obtaining the type of work he wants. How, then, does the unemployed worker obtain new skills, a trade, or prepare for an occupation he would like to work in but lacks the necessary training? One answer is that he might look into the possibility of training unâ€" der Canadian Vocational Training â€" Schedule 5, Trainâ€" ing for the unemployed. Today, the unemployed worker is wise to assess his experience and qualifications carefully and if satisâ€" factory employment cannot be obtained, consider the possibility of acquiring a new akill, a trade, or an upâ€" grading of his academic background to at least the equivalent of grade 10. The greater number of unâ€" skilled jobs today require a minimum of grade 10. Trade Schools may ask for grade 10 so that the subâ€" jects taught may be more readily absorbed and retainâ€" ed by those participating. A young man seeking an apâ€" prletnfticeship in a trade, may be asked to upâ€"grade himâ€" self first. VOCATIONAL TRAINING .

Probably our own lethargy, as we basked in the sunshine of those busy post war years, caused us to forget the mighty competition that was growing around us. Fortunately, the merchants of Weston awoke in time to fight but we are still hampered. We are now faced with a lig uor vote. It seems ridiculous that we should in this modern 20th century, have to be haraa-‘ sed by a vote to have something. that every successful shopping} area has. There is no doubt that in every shopping area in plazas ‘ vice of a government store where I can also buy groceries etc?" or towns, our government stores have greatly aided the sources of all other businesses.

My father then hauled them inâ€" to his store and for three cents you probably had your first ice cream cone, in those days.
