The letter suggested some important topics on which he requested their opinions. In response to this letter, the managers showed great interest and a readiness to help formulate, what one of them termed, Hthe very constructive information. Topics proposed for their consideration were: l-Opportunities in your industry:- A Clj For boys with a high school education. CZD For boys with a college education. B Clj For girls with a high school education. C25 For girls with a college education. 2-Positions in your industry with too few qualified applicants. 3-Positions to which applicants can be trained on the job. 4-Outstanding character traits looked for in employees. 5-Ways in which the high school could better prepare students for your industry. Checking over the positions which are open to the high school graduate, there seemed to be an unlimited supply. The industries offer some very fine chances in the various mechanical lines. minor forms of engineering, and such trades as, the sheet-metal, machinist, Wood-working, molding and the like. There is a great variety of opportunities in the glass, pottery and the grinding I 1'g H c 1, mi 1 f ft .,,,- V... ,,, 'L 5.. . ,I - ' gafmdvi, N rf-.N V

The chief aim of this company is to provide the building l trade with the most durable sheet metal materials that can be constructed. We , feel sure that after the clear explanation we received, none of us will err in our selection of roofing plates, furnace accessories, art metal ceilings or eaves troughs i r for our future homes. A recent development of this plant is an all-metal bill- , 1 itil b i i board. 'S Y i i i iiimli viii l Concluding our survey, we visited the Hanson Clutch Company, the Tiflin , l iw, l Manufacturing Company, and the Sterling Grinding Wheel Company. At these p l ,Iliff A s factories we watched the different processes in the making of clutches, delved' 3? Vi i deep into the mysteries of mold preparation and observed the various steps in the 1 ll , l l l building of church furniture. A specialty of the Sterling Grinding Wheel Com- l i l . wi f l ll. 5 pany is the more scientific grinding wheel which has replaced the old-fashioned ly if A , ' emery wheel. lt was hard to realize that grinding wheels could serve so many li ll ll 7 -.- V p purposes. At the Hanson Company the class also witnessed a demonstration of ll i ill, 5 .

A very fortunate circumstance connected with these is the fact that the young man can be trained to them on the job. Higher opportunities are offered to the young man with a college education. Mechanical and electrical engineering are fields which are open to him. Excel- lent prospects are presented to the ceramic engineer. There are hardly enough men in this work to meet the demands of the glass, pottery and grinding wheel industries. With a commerce and finance training, a young man could make himself valuable to many of the concerns, especially in the sales, accounting or the credit departments. Others, trained in architectural designing, would be very desirable assets to many of the local organizations. One industry in Tiffin offers fine advantages to men with a good knowledge of mining engineering. In regard to opportunities for girls in our local industries, there appears to be practically nothing which requires high school education, except clerical work. There are many positions which might be termed lighter labor, but high school education is not demanded. No position requires specialized college training. Some advanced work in bookkeeping and stenography, however, would be very desirable. Naturally enough, there are many positions hard to fill properly. Those requiring special college or advanced training were listed first. Even those to which young men, without college training, can aspire, such as foremen, super- 5 ' '-'lim'-5 rv l , Q'l',tti1,1Z1Z3-Zifjg-iffig' iq. F ' I-V,2f.7,7 fill xg?
