A Warning is Issued To Essential
Employees In Transylvania County
Statements Of Availability
Must Be Obtained Be
fore Changing Jobs
A warning that workers in the
Brevard area planning to get jobs
elsewhere will not be hired with
out a statement of availability
from the local office of the United
States Employment Service was is
sued today by Carl Buchanan,
manager o f the Hendersonville
office of the USES in discussing
the new employment stabilization
plan coveming Region IV which
includes North Carolina.
Mr. Buchanan called attention
to provisions of the Region IV
plan developed by representatives
of labor and management which
require that all workers whose
most recent employment was in
an essential activity must obtain
a statement of availability from
their present employer or the
United States Employment Service
before seeking ether employment.
He added that workers in activi
ties other than essential do not
need statements of availability un
less they are planning to seek
jobs outside the area.
The plan, which went into effect
on May 15, places restrictions on
inter-area migration and on hiring
in order that workers will be pro
vided where needed to do war
production and essential civilian
work. It is based upon War Man

sued under President Roosevelt’s
“Hold-the-Line” Order stabilizing
wages, prices, and employment,
and the War Manpower Commis
sion’s national policy on Employ
ment Stabilization.
“Workers in activities not desig
nated as essential may be hired
by employers engaged in essential
activities without restriction, pro
vided they work in the area where
they are hired,” Mr. Buchanan ex
plained.
“When a worker desires to quit
or to be transferred under the
conditions outlined in the plan, he
shall notify his employer of that
MAKING PLANS FOR
SCOUT CAMPOREE
Three-Day Camping Event
For Local Boy Scouts
To Be Held June 24-26
Plans are now being made to
hold a three-day Camporee for
the Scouts and Scouters of the
Transylvania county district next
week end, June 24-28.
Tentative plans provided for
holding the Camporee at Camp
Transylvania, but because of water
and other complications, these
plans have been abandoned and
a definite location had not been
selected yesterday. Camp Sap
phire may be chosen.
Since E. H. McMahan, district
chairman, was out of town the
first of the week, no information
as to location was available yester
day.
Assistant Scout Executive Bill
Wall, of Asheville, will assist Char
lie Moore and other leaders and
Scoutmasters in holding the Camp
oree. A large number of Scouts
are planning to attend, it is stat
ed. An emblem will be awarded
all scouts who attend and patrol
citations will be given.
A court of honor will be held
at the First Baptist church here

employer fails to issue a state

may apply to the local United

which will investigate and decide
if the statement is to be issued.
Either employer or worker may

Jobs For Junior
The next time Junior leaves his
usual tell-tale rings around the
bath tub or wash basin, you will
find a slightly moistened paper
towel to be an excellent short cut
in causing the dirty streak to dis
appear rapidly. Paper towels ab
sorb all moisture quickly and eas
ily and their slightly uneven sur
face is a great dirt eradicator. A
handy roll of paper towels in
stalled in your bathroom will make
household chores seem twice as
easy. Then, the next time your
young pride and joy proceeds to
leave his small mark of neglect
on your bathroom porcelain, you
may rest assuerd that paper towels
have helped you over another
tough household hurdle. Another
| suggestion for little Junior — A
comfortable chair of the right size
for a child has a seat just deep
enough to support his back, and
shallow enough to allow his knees
to bend. It has support for his
feet if they do not reach the floor.
Here’s a nice little job for Junior
if you want him to help a bit and
also keep him out of mischief for
a brief time: Let him gather up
all the unused nails that are be
ginning to show rust, mix them
with a little kerosene and then
put them in a tightly covered can,
or mason jar is better for you can
see from the outside the different
sizes and kinds of nails.
Do Double Duty ■*>
In order to insure victory in this
war everybody, and housewives in
particular, must co-operate and
learn to do double duty. In addi
tion to being homemaker, it will
help a lot if you learn to be your
own handyman for the duration.
Carpenters, or handywomen, are as
good as their tools. Lots of jobs
that need doing about the house
aren’t too hard for an amateur.
Sometimes just a nail or screw can
do a big repair job. You can do
such easy jobs at first as putting
up curtain rods, tack down an oil
cloth, re-cover the ironing board,
tape up the frayed cord of the
electric iron, and when you get
more adept you might even hang
that long wanted shelf in the
kitchen or do other small carpen
try jobs about the house. Don’t
think you have to call a man for
every little job that’s needed, for
oftentimes you won’t be able to
find anybody to do it, especially
at the right time when “a stitch
in time saves nine.”
Comes Back To Its Own
The heretofore lowly hamburger
now comes back to its own and
is now quite popular on the war
economy menu. If your ration
points are running low, choose
hamburger for dinner made from
“neck, flank, shank, brisket and
miscellaneous beef trimmings and
beef fat, 5 points,” quoting from
Classes At Brevard And Pis
gah Forest To Close To
night and Friday
When the home nursing classes
that are being conducted in Bre
vard and Transylvania county
are completed, there will be ap
proximately 80 women who will
receive certificates, it was learn
ed from Miss Margaret Walker,
National Red Cross representative
who is teaching the classes.
The class at Rosman closed
last week and 12 women received
certificates.
The Brevard class, which has
been held here at the Brevard
elementary school, ends tonight
and around 18 to 20 persons are
expected to finish.
The Pisgah Forest class closes
Friday night and a total of ap
proximately 20 will graduate.
Instruction of the course that
is being given at Calvert-Cherry
field will terminate sometime next
week. There are about 20 enroll
ed.
In the colored class here, a
total of 25 are enrolled and these
will graduate the latter part of
the month.
“Interest here and in the coun
ty in our home nursing classes has
been good and I would say that it
is above the average,” Miss Walk
er said.
Last Friday night the Pisgah
Forest class enjoyed a picnic in
the forest.
Miss Walker’s schedule for the
county is expected to terminate on
July 5 and no new nursing classes
have been planned.
