is a tendency on the part of emplovers to call for workers before

the jobs are ready. This has resulted in loos of time and money to workmen,

and has cr.ppled important war industries.

Workmen may depend upon this Government employment service, because it sends men only to jobs that are ready. It helps a man get the right job to be of greatest help to his country in help

ing to win the war.

To do away with this unnecessary shifting of men. the Government has organized the U. S. Employment Service as a part of the Department of Labor. It has 500 branch offices and 20,000 U. S. Public

Service Enrollment Agents covering the United States. It has definite knowledge of all manufacturing conditions a&d labor requirements the country over.

Tha Government urges every man now employed in useful work to stick to his job. Shifting about is costly to all. But if a man is cut of work, or if he feels that a charge in employment is necessary, he is urged to consult the U. S. Employment Service.

To win the war the Government must have maximum production in all war industries to support our army in France. Every worker wants to do all he can to help. Therefore the

use of the U. S. Employment Service, when seeking employment, is a patriotic service and duty. Always make use of nearest office orgent.
