Less than months ago established what

tion to place competent and honest men and

time consisted of but one small room in the
Chamber of Commerce building, but gave
the business my personal attention day after
day My methods attracted a good class
of employers and employees. In snort my
straightforward methods were approved from
the start and the bureau has never lacked
