GREAT DEMAND IN
WORLD OF LABOR
Shipyards Calling For Men
and Iron and Steel Indus
tries Are Very Active

The boom in shipbuilding along
the Delaware and the consequent ac-
tivity in the various industries of the
state which will contribute to the up
building of the American marine on
the Clyde of America are reflected in
the demands. made in the last few
weeks upon the State Bureau of En-
ployment for men. For months the
bureau, which is now organizing in
conjunction with the State Commit
tee of Public Safety a series of zones
for listing of persons seeking work
or those available for emergency
work, has been subjected to heavy
calls from the iron and steel indus
tries of Allegheny, Cambria, Ches-
ter, Delaware, Northampton, Lehigh,
Berks, Dauphin and other counties
which have turned the tide of Penn
sylvania metal production to war
business.
The demand is so great for ship
builders that where employers can
not get the riveters, calkers, ma
chinists, heaters, erectors and other
specialized men they seek they are
taking on green men and instructing
them. The iron and steel mills. are
calling for unskilled labor and there
is an unprecedented demand for
foundry workers and machinists,
the men coming from the farms and
carpenters. masons, builders and
similarly trained men are being of
fered premiums to work on extern
sions of manufacturing plants and
war orders have boosted the de-
mands of munitions, equipment and
supply, clothing, shoe and similar
plants.
The bulletin of the Department
makes plea for such workers and
also for women, saying regarding
the employment of women:
Women are being attracted in
greater numbers to the textile mills
to take the places of men who have
left for the war or for more ar
duous duties in the production field.
Employment of women in offices is
increasing and women are also being
employed in mems furnishing stores,
in the operation of passenger eleva-
tors, in restaurants and in other
work for which they are qualified
Scarcity of capable farmhands
continues. Orders are constantly on
file at the bureau, even for mex
perienced men to work temporarily
on farms at wages ranging from So
to SO day with board"
The bureau placed 2,416 persons in
employment, during the month of
September, through its five offices
at Harrisburg, Philadelphia, Pitts
burgh, Johnstown and Altoona. En-
ployers asked the bureau for 3,642
workers during last month while ap-
plications for position were received
from 2,97S persons. OF that num-
ber, 2,576 persons were referred to
positions for which they were con-
sidered suitable.
The report by offices for the
month of September is as follows:

days games were lost to Philadelphia,
the first after eleven innings. Against
Washington, in four games the White
Sox could make only five runs and
fifteen hits, and they won only one
game. Two hits was the result of tho
Chicago hitting in Fridays and Sat-
urday's games.
In contrast to Chicago's poor work,
Boston and Cleveland improved their
play and gained on the leaders. The
Red Sox broke even in two games with
Cleveland. and then won four out OF
five from Detroit. Cleveland traded

troit early in the week. but by winning

OLD MULE SELLS FOR $3.50
Three Days Later Brings $4,000

That mules are advancing rapidly in
the Giles neighborhood in this county.
is evidenced by trade that was made
there last week. The facts in the case
were about these. and Walter Locker,
who lives in that neighborhood, is res
ponsible for it. Louis McCulley owned
a mule, and we judge very old one.
that he sold to Wiley Burton for 81 so.
Burton is known as very thrifty trad
er and always sells at Il profit, any
thing he buys. He interested Henry
Teater in the mule and sold it to lin
for $500. In the meantime great
demand developed in this neighborhood
for these popular hybrids and Tester
soon found another sale for his mule
in the person of Joe Gill, whom he per-
suaded to buy the mule at price said
to have been $1,000. Teater is Si7 90
to the good and We presume the way
other mules have advanced around here
that Joe Gill got a bargain after all.
