Tri boty Western Section Leaders - ' - | Cost ofa Job Terie ARC TT ie i TREE "From "Industry" published. "by 'the .| Canadian Manufacturers Association How much' does it cost to provide a man with'a job? Replies to the recent: Canadian Manufacturers 'Association, Inc, questionnaire on the breakdown of the sales dollar showed | . that in. 1951, companies 'employing 385,660 people required $2,827,729,000 in. investments or in' plain language, $8,426 tied up in buildings, equipment, raw materials and other goods in ord- er to provide one man with one job. But don't let's be hoodwinkéd- by this. Let's be supicious of ourselves, Have we any right to draw conclus- ions from such a sourée? : Do the companies---we have taken provide a fair cross-section of Canadian indust- ry? Indeed they do. The question- naire 'was sent _ to each and every member of the CMA and the replies came from firms of every type and size and the number was more than 'ample for our purpose. Can our conclusions be cnofirmed ? Is it possible that, if we repeated our actions, we. might get a totally dif- ferent answer? We carried out this very same procedure in 1960 and our answer then was that 483 firms'ems | ploying 247,745 people réquired assets totalling $2,108,036,000 or $8,440 per employee. This is surély as close as any two surveys could hope to be. . Again, in January, 1961, the Steel Company of Canada stated that, at '| that time.the sum of $10,000 was -in- vested in the steel industry for every employee," We could not expect that a figure computed by an individual firm- would exactly correspond with our own, but we're pleased to. note that far from being guilty of exagger- ation, our figures-are, if anything, on i the conservative side. Over $8,400 to give an employee a job! Since.the employee doesn't have to put up the money himself, where does this $8,400 come from. It comes from shareholders--thousands of peo- ple across the country who invest their earnings to provide the tools of pro- duction and, in return, get paid for their use. Thege "tools help Canadians to turn out an increasing flow of goods and services. They keep-our productive - industries healthy and growing. : . Timmy, age 8, was puzzled over the social problems .and discussed them with his friend Tom, who was one year older.

If yout'e looking for the sheerest in hosiery- for those "all-dressed-up" oceasons, ask for 16 :denier stockings. But if ybu want a more durable yet still fairly sheer stockings, ask for 30 dénier.. For around-the-house activi- ties, it's your' best buy :because the higher the denier the Sironger the yarn, And here are some more hint on hosiery: om If you are wearing nylon stockings that are too short your feet may burn. Sitting, bending or reaching may be- come uncomfortable movements. If you have these discomforts consult a foot-size chart available - at most hosiery counters. On the other hand, if your stockings are too long they will snag more easily because of the looseness of the fit. Orne way to avoid unnecessary runs is to roll the stocking down to the toe before slipping it. on... Then straighten the foot seam, unroll the stocking slowly and smooth it over the leg, To. assure stockings longer life; be seated when fastening front and side garters to allow for knee action, Stand up to fasten the back garter, Whether your stockings are full-fashioned or' seamless, fasten the garter in the welt (reinforced part) and not on the seam, -- The term "gauge" indicates fine- ness of stitch. A stocking-with a high gauge like 66 has smaller stitches and 80 gives better snag-resistance than one with a lower gauge like 42. Denier --the weight and thickness of the thread--is the guide for sheerness and the most important factor in wear. > sey a.
