' Act Grown Up When Looking For First Job By RUTH MILLETT Tips for the high school gradu ates looking for his first real job: Remember that you are a job hunter, not a professional teen ager. So dress and act like an adult: heeli instead of socks and loafers for girls, suits instead of dungarees for boys.' Go alone when you go job hunt ing. It may bolster your courage to take a friend along, but you'll have better luck if you job hunt by yourself. Sit up straight when are are tnlking to a prospective employ er. Don t lounge around. If you are asked to fill out a form, do It neatly and give some thought to the answers you write down. Give a lot of thought to what you nave to oiler a prospective employer, lie isn't interested in what he can do for you, but what you can do tor him. If you really want a job don't look disinterested if the hours stem long, or if the pay isnt as much as you've heard some other graduates are getting. The im portant thing is: will you have a chance to move ' up if you work hard' and prove that you are re liable and trustworthy? Don t get discouraged if the answer is, "We don t have any thing right now, but we may need someone later." Go back later so that you won't be forgotten If you give anyone s name as a reference be sure to tell the person about it. And don't for get to tnanK any person who goes to the trouble of writing a rec ommendation for you. Let good manners and a straightforward approach help you sell yourself to any person who interviews you for a job. Try to learn something from every interview so that you will have a better idea of what is ex pected ot a young person look ing for a job. Frequently the simplest recipes are the preferred ones. "Lemon Frosted Peaches'1 will become a favorite. Simply fill chilled gold en, canned cling peache halves with lemon sherbet and garnish with coarsely grated lemmon rind. Serve as a refreshing des sert or an exotic accompaniment to a main course such as chicken or duck.
