Show CCC Advantages For Young Men Clearly Set Forth Young men who have been unable un-able to continue on through high school or college are offered a second chance to secure an education edu-cation and learn a trade with the I current enrollment activities in j the Civilian Conservation Corps, which began July 1. Special auto . mechanics schools are being opened open-ed at Cedar City and Salt Lake City this month, thus providing training and experience in that field. In addition to auto mechanics, mechan-ics, a special school covering the repair, operation and maintenance of radios is being conducted in Ogden. Other special schools teach drafting, blacksmithing, welding, cooking, clerical work and tentage and canvas repair. The usual academic subjects are taught in all camps, together with a range of subjects that covers most common trades. Practical experience in all these subjects is secured in the daily work of the enrollee. The work program of the corps builds up the enrollee physically and this, together with a program of physical training, regular meals and hours, as a well planned recreation re-creation program, provides the CCC enrollee with a rounded-out physical and mental growth. Each camp has as a member of its staff a physician, while a dentist den-tist regularly visits the company and provides dental care. Each enrollee is provided with good clothing, food, and shelter. In addition he is paid $30 a month. Of this, $8.00 is given him as an allowance for spending money, $7.00 is deposited to his credit as a savings account, and $15 is sent to his parents or guardian. Young men betwee)n the (ages of 17 and 23 who are interested m joining the CCC are urged to contact officers at the Black Rock camp, or their local selecting agent, Aubra Cartwright, Beaver, or Vernon Holman, Fillmore.
