 The management of the Y. W. c. A. is very desirous of placing the en- ployment department upon a broader f and more useful basis. To do this. it 5 is necessary to have the cooperation of the public; of those desiring help and of those in need of work. By l work, we mean not only permanent positions, but the so-caped rpiece work" such as days cleaning. laun- dry work, serving, catering. sewing and some one to care for children during the temporary absence of the mother Also those possessing any special culinary art would be helpful , many times to the busy people who . have no time for preparing such edi- bles. Names may be registered wien l corresponding numbers and orders taken for certain numbers as in a woman's exchange.
 l It seems to us that there is large field for this work and with proper ) cooperation, 1t will be, real benefit to the Warren district.
