The first examination of applicants for ap-
pointment as compositors in the Government
Printing Office, since the employees OF that
establishment were placed under civil service
rules, IS now being held. There are moro
than two hundred applicants, and it will
take the rest of the week to complete the eX-
animation of them all. Those who get the
required percentage will be placed on the
eligible list and appointed when there are
vacancies or when more help IS needed at the
G. P. O. Judging from their talk the
"compsn who have taken the examination
are not oyerburdened with admiration 1or
the wisdom displayed by the questions asked.
One of them. who had wide experience both
in newspaper and job Offices, and who is Gre
dited by all who know him with being frs
