“For the Love of Pete, Don’t—"

Don’t offer an ex-service man a plate of beans —or. If he is not hungry, don’t try te tempt his appetite with “corned willy*’ or camouflaged hash. Dop’t offer an ex-service man in search of amusement the chance to oig In your garden—he’s had his fill es that in the plck-and-shovel brigade. If you have an ex-service man as a week-end guest in your country house, him to stoke your furnace —

unless you want him never to visit you again. 1/ you are an employer, and an exservice man asks you for a job—don’t turn him down. He left his old job to fight for you. It’s your business to provide him with a job now. Col. Arthur Woods, former police Commissioner of New York, and noW assistant to the secretary of war, offers this advice as the best way to

keep our ex-service men happy and to absorb them speedily into the structure of peace-time America.
