The old fellow cheerily said "Good bye," and is now earning $36 a week, and in the evenings may be seen at downtown theaters and in other public places. Others, as old. or nearly as old, have discovered they have "pep" and have lande Jobs at from $20 to $30. a week Many of the women at the infirmary likewise have departed and found employment. In all, the southern Ohio infirmaries here lost more than 200 men and women in the last fewmonths, because of the high wages paid. j Welcome Hack to World.
