All spaces considered are at least Hausdorff. The article is motivated by results discussed in [\textit{J. van Mill} and \textit{E. Wattel}, Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 83, 601-605 (1981; Zbl 0473.54010)]. It is shown that a locally compact paracompact space has a continuous selection for its Vietoris hyperspace of nonempty closed subsets if and only if it is a topologically well-orderable subspace of some orderable space. The author also proves that a locally compact paracompact space is suborderable if and only if it has a continuous weak selection. His investigations show that every locally compact paracompact space which has a continuous weak selection is semi-orderable, that is, is the topological sum of two orderable spaces.
