This examination offers an excel.
lent opportunity for entering the Fed.
eral service to bright, energetic young
persons who are not afraid Of hard

urger all persons who are qualified.
and who may desire to enter the post
office service, to apply for and take
examination. II may be stated that
there is a wider field for advancement
upon merit in the Federal service
than in many private employments.

compares favorably with the compen-
sation OF beginner in private en-
ployment

amined for positions In this office.
1t is intended hereafter, in case no
