Mills Company. one Of the leading man
ufacturing concerns oil TINS Guy anu
section, which should prove OF great
interest to those in FREDERICKSBURG "no
are unemployed 1t seems that labor Is
in demand here and that there Is no
reason for the industrious men or wo-
men longer remaining idle. AT these
mills. as we understand It, conditions
are splendid from sanitary STANDPOINT,
the work pleasant, hours reasonable
and the remuneration the same pad Tor
similar work elsewhere.
The management of the mills is
progressive and hustling and de
sire as soon as possible 20 in
crease the capacity OF their plant. This
will mean much to fredericksburg, but
before this can be done they must have
the necessary labor
IL men and women remain out
Of work here after the publication
of this article it will appear that they
are not locking for employment as same
is here offered by the Washing Wool
en- Mills. Fredericksburg should have
no trouble in supplying home labor for
these mills, and we hope that our own
people will make terms with the owners
so that it won't be necessary for them
to import any foreign labor.
Editor Of The Free Lance, City.
Dear Sir: We are in need of addi-
tional help in our factory and if present
plans materialize We may be able to
double our present force. We are con
/ lident that there are many people IN
| Fredericksburg who can do our work
at home and lots of others who could
| find employment in the factory, while
within radius of ten to twenty miles
there are just as many who would come
to Fredericksburg if they but knew II.
The ordinary advertising will not re-
ceive the necessary attention from the
intelligent help we need. and we con
sequently take this means OF calling
attention to our wants and hope that
we will receive sufficient response at
once to fill the present vacancies and
whatever addition al help we may need
after September 18th, so that we VIII
not have to look for such help else
where.
Our work is interesting, conditions
ideal. and the pay is equally as good as
operators receive for like work IN large
cities.
Trusting that this letter will aid us
materially in obtaining what necessary
help we now need and sufficient appll-
cations for future vacancies, we are,
Yours very truly,
