no good saying, “I can. do this job all right.” Before making the final choice you must take a critical look at yourself—as any employer would before accepting you.


LOCAL PROSPECTS The young people of this


area need look no further than their own locality for a suitable job . . . at least at the start oE their careers. The so-called drift to the South should soon be halted-by the realisation that opportunities in Lancashire’s industry and commerce, together with its further education facilities, are equal to those anywhere


in the country. There is an exciting


variety of careers from


which to choose. Girls who at one time had


to get jobs wherever they could, have unlimited oppor­ tunities for choosing a worth­ while job, even iE they possess no G.C.E. qualifica­ tions. Good wage packets and modern working conditions are theirs for the asking in many industries where full training is given to beginners. Clitheroe is gaining a wide


JOBS WITH A FUTURE AND A PAY PACKET FOR BOYS AND GIRLS


reputation for the ^ sewing section oE the textile industry and girls with a flair for mak­ ing clothes can find employ- ment in one of several fac­ tories offering top wages, good prospects of promotion, modern surroundings, a cheerful atmosphere and many additional benefits. Mills in the district are


also offering training and attractive wages to school- leavers who want to enter the old but resvarding trades such as weaving and overlooking. To many/mill work sounds old-fashioned and mundane, but most mills have been modernised and the work is


varied and interesting. Shops and offices offer


vacancies mainly to girls. Hairdressing is the career


chosen by many young ladies leaving-school, for in Clitheroe there are many up- to-date salons of excellent reputation.


ENGINEERING As for careers for boys,


more and more electrical engineering apprenticeships


are being offered, and at mid­ summer in Clitheroe and the nearby industrial


engineering firms offer jobs for boys, who receive full training and eventually become qualified engineers. A group training scheme


t o wn s


is offered to engineering apprentices in Accrington, Clitheroe, Great Harwood and Rishton, whereby those working for small firms are sent to Accring­ ton College of Further Education for a 12-month training course, so that they get the same training as they would in a large


firm. A firm offering attractive


employment to boys and girls is Trutex, where there are openings- for skilled or ' un­ skilled workers, from sec­ retaries and designers to packers and cleaners. There are seven Trutex


factories altogether. At the Waterloo Road factory machinists produce all girls’ school dresses, shorts, cellular blouses and special school blouses. “Rave” shirts and collar interfinings are manu­ factured at Henthorn, and at West Bradford goods from all the factories are packed and dispached. At a Black­ burn factory overalls and blouses are made. One of the most worth­ while careers—hospital work


—appeals to many girls and boys, and hospitals in this area have vacancies for student and pupil nurses. In any one year at the


Blackburn hospitals alone there is an intake of 80 to 100 student nurses and 40


to 50 pupil nurses. For school-leavers who


wish to see the world there are numerous openings for them in the Forces or even in the overseas offices of a British-based firm.


FARMING Clitheroe is particularly


known as an agricultural town and naturally there are many jobs in gardening and farming available to boys. Some girls, too, can enter


interesting and remunerative job and also offers a com- - Iprehensive training. .
