Be Honest, Is Advice Of Service Director To Those Hunting Work Washington OJ.PJ Be honest when you job hunt. And if there are wedding bells in the imme diate future, tell the prospective employer so. This advice to girls comes from Miss Mary Huck, a home service director of Columbus, Ohio. Part of her work is inter viewing job-seekers. Miss Huck says the employer deserves a fair "and honest evaluation of your training, per sonality traits, ambitions and abilities. "By all means give a frank statement of your marital or family plans." Writing in the current issue of the Journal of Home Econo mics, Miss Huck complained of the job hunters who "neglected to tell us they want to work only long enough to earn money for a trouseau ..." Unless otherwise agreed, she added, a girl should plan to stay on the job at least two years. "This is no more than fair to your employer," she said, "and is the time you need to make a definite contribution to the job." Extension Meeting .. Slated for Oct. 2?
