ka kore rawa ai tera ahua o te pakeha ki a tatou. He nui rawa atu nga tamariki Maori e haere ana enei Tari ki te rapu mahi ma ratou. Ko nga mea whai-whakaaro, ahakoa kei te kura tonu e haere mai ana ki te uiui mo nga mahi e hiahia ana ratou. Mo te puta rawa mai i te kura e tatari atu ana te mahi. Ko te wa tika ano tera hei timatanga ki te rapu mahi kia kore ai e whainga nui a te wa e mutu mai ai te kura. Ehara i te mea ma enei tari e whiriwhiri he mahi ma tetahi tamaiti, heoi ano ta matou he whakaatu kia ratou i nga ahua mahi katoa, me te matauranga e taea atu ai tera mahi tera mahi, engari kei nga mahita ano hoki tetahi wahi nui ko ratou e mohio ana ki te ahua o ia tamaiti o ia tamaiti i te kura. Ehara i te mea e warewaretia ana nga matua, he wahi tino nui ano kei a koutou, kaua e waiho ma nga kura anake e ako nga tamariki ki nga mea katoa. Ko te kura tuatahi o te tamaiti ko tona kainga. Ko te whaea tona mahita tuatahi, na reira kaua e ngakau kore, kaua e hoha e hoha ki te ako i a tatou tamariki kia tutuki tika ai hoki ki te matauranga o te pakeha. Mehemea he take ta nga matua e hiahia ana ki te korero ki a matou mo a ratou tamariki, kaua e hopohopo ki te haere mai kia whiriwhiri tahi ai tatou i nga mahi e tika ana ma a tatou tamariki. He maha tonu hoki nga matua kahore e mohio ana ki nga huarahi awhina a te Kawanatanga mo a tatou tamariki kia tutuki ai i nga kura teitei tae noa atu ki nga whare Wananga (Universities). Kahore ano hoki he aha o te tuhi mai mehemea e kore e taea te haere mai. Otira kia mahara ano hoki tatou, kei te tamaiti ano te kupu whakamutunga, kei kore e hiahiatia e ia te mahi ka mahue. ETAHI MAHI (1) Mahita kura:— He nui a tatou tamariki Maori e whai ana i tenei mahi. E marama ana te huarahi e taea atu ai tera mahi, ara me matua pahi ki te School Certificate, me te tiwhiketi hoki a te Takuta mo te ora o tona tinana. Ka pahi ki enei, ka haere ki mua i tetahi Komiti Whiriwhiri, ma ratou ki te Kura mo nga mahita (Training College) mo nga tau e rua. Otira ko enei mahita mo nga Kura tuatahi ara Primary Schools. Engari tera atu ano tetahi ahua mahita kura mo nga Kura Teitei (High Schools) Me matua pahi enei ki te (University Entrance) Ko te huarahi atu tera ki nga whare Wananga o te pakeha (Universities) kia riro mai nga taitara e tika ana ka ahei te haere hei mahita mo nga Kura Teitei (High Schools). Tino ruarua nga Maori kua tae atu ki tera taumata mahi ai. work offering and the skill required for each job. The school teachers also help as they know the capabilities each child has shown at school. Parents, too, have a big part to play. They should not leave it to the schools to teach the children everything. The home gives the child's first schooling; the mother is its first teacher. For this reason do not be backward or apathetic about teaching children what they need to enable them to absorb more readily the knowledge of the pakeha. If parents have some matters which they wish to discuss with Vocational Guidance officers about their children, they should not be afraid to come to see us. Together we can decide what is best. There are still a number of parents who do not know the methods by which the Government can help their children finish their secondary education or win University Entrance. If parents do not come to us, we cannot help them; but it must always be remembered that the child has the final word. If the job is not to his liking, he will leave it. SOME JOBS School Teaching: Quite a number of Maori youths are taking up school teaching. The steps required are quite clear. The School Certificate examination must be passed, and a doctor's certificate of fitness is required. The young man or woman then goes before a selection committee, on whose recommendation he or she may be admitted to Training College for two years. However, this applies to primary school teachers only. High school teachers must pass University Entrance Examination, attend the Universities, and study for degrees and diplomas. Very few Maoris have taken up this advanced type of school teaching. Office Work: There are at present a number of Maoris employed in offices. The qualification required is the school certificate, but it is also possible to obtain work of this nature after three or four years of high school without school certificate. Most office workers are girls. Personal appearance, poise, good dress sense, and good address are important as well as capacity to do the work. There are two types of office work for girls: (1) Office Assistant: These should have school certificate if they are to receive the maximum salary at the start. They need not know typing or shorthand. (2) Shorthand Typist: There is a number of examinations in this category, commencing with Chamber of Commerce, Junior Government,
