MEN WAIVED

AS result of the war there is an enormous demand in all lines of busi- ness, both public and private. for trained men and women. Leading : men of the nation are unanimous in the opinion that it is a patriotic duty for men who are not eligible for army service 10 pursue business or techni. cal training and it themselves for ser. vice elsewhere.
 Young men who are not in the Sc lective draft, are wanted in business positions provided they have the right training. Little Rock and Arkansas business men are begging now for trained help; they need men-great numbers of them-and must have them. It is splendid opportunity for those who will train themselves in bookkeeping. shorthand. and other branches of clerical work.
 Mir. George A Mclean. President of Draughon's Business College of Little Rock Ark, advises that the demand for office help has trebled in volume during the last three or four months. and that in August alone. nearly 200 positions were offered the students of his school A very large majority could not be filled as there was not sufficient number of trained students available. MT Mclean strong. ily urges business training and says that wonderful opportunities are now open to the young men and women of Arkansas.
 Those who are looking for an op. portunity and believe in the Do il now" spirit, should, by all means. communicate with Mir Mclean and learn his plan for assisting young peo. pie to prepare for business life.

INCREASE POULTRY PRooucT'N

INCREASE POULTRY PRODuCT'N.
 An appeal to poultry raisers to increase their production of poultry. meat and eggs has been issued by the American Association of Instruct ors and Investigators which met re- gently at Amherst, Mass. These poultry experts, in a resolution, state that there will be an unprecedented demand for breeding stock and poul- try products. which can be met most effectively by the introduction of inn proved methods and better stock management in each flock
 The association urges particularly owners of flocks not to sacrifice valuable chickens simply because feed has become abnormally high. They point out that such a practice would tend to reduce the supply of breeding stock and lead to serious reduction in output
 The members of the association. who are the experts in poultry hus- bandry from the several state agri- cultural colleges and the United States Department of Agriculture. stand ready to help all poultry pro- ducers to get maximum results.
