WH|STL|NG LADS
OF Canada Go to the Front and
Girls Take Their Places
at Home.

WINNIPEG, Canada, May s-There
is a big shortage of errand boys and
office boys in this province and in sew
eral other Canadian provinces as re-
suit of the war and so pressing has be-
come the situation that many big bust
ness houses are substituting girls for
the whistling lads who so many years
held sway.
One reason for the shortage lies in
the fact that boys more than is years
old are eligible for army service and
large part OF them have enlisted. An
other cause Is due to the school laws
which in this province and in other
districts COMPEL the attendance at
school Of boys IA years and younger.
The problem has been solved here
by the telegraph companies who are
employing crippled soldiers for mes
senger boy work.
