Then the complainant told the

A COW JAILED?

INCREASINGLY being annoyed by
COW trespassing all over his yard
and garden, doesn't exactly suit
one DIR. Hamilton according to UNI
official information received i.
Though he is known to have lots
of patience.
Well, a few days ago, he got
awfully disguised when said COW
fatty refused to be driven out of
the garden, and he decided to call
for aid from a close friend of his,
the cop. The perleeceman was
soon located. and the complaint
properly made. The said officer
asked to be excused for minute,
and about seventeen minutes later
the complainant was accosted by
the cop saying, why didn't you
fetch the dumb brute over with
you and we'd lock FER up?" To
this the complainant replied that
the COW was not in ''fetchable"
notion. The cop then stated that
perhaps he could find what he had
been looking for, if given another
minute, and straightway he sought
Seyler of the print shop gang and
borrowed some of the stuff what is
used to shine up saxophones with.
He then proceeded to shine up his
badge, so that the dignity of his
office would not be insulted.
Returning he told the complain
ant that he was now ready to do
his dooty.
Well arrest said COW, and have
her before the honorable Mayor

MOran'S Column

Warning-Don'tread this unless
you want to.
Until further notice, r. M. Mo-
ran will write a column for The
Progressive each week, dealing
with life in reality thereof. Some
articles may create an occasional
laugh or idea for the reader, and
an occasional dollar and four bits
for the editor. Other articles will
give the other side of the tale, so
some people will read The Progress
i've for curiosity sake; others will
read it to see what we have to say
about neighbors, and others will
find it necessary to read it to learn
what we are saying about them
selves.
At all times we will deal square,
ly with ourselves as we do with
others, and will herald the short
commgs of the print shop bunch,
and even the governor thereof,
just as we do outsiders.
Who is Moran?-He is a homely
Irishman with big feet, green eyes
and pink hair. If you see some
one running around loose who
looks like nobody else in all the
world Well, that's Moran.
We will appreciate receiving in
formation what NEEDS to be pub
lished, and if anyone has boss
trade and gets cheated, call for Mo
ran.
Anyone desiring to do all kinds
of mean stunts without any public
ity whatever, should take warning
and notify Moran not to use their
name in this column.

UNEMPLOYED CUARDSMEN

The officers in charge of the work
connected with the United States
Government Free Employment ser
vice established in 1915 by the De-
partment of Labor, are putting forth
every effort to assist the guardsmen
returning from the Mexican border
who, upon being mustered out, may
find themselves out of work and de-
string help to secure profitable en-
ployment. The Federal Depart
ment of Labor at Washington hav-
ing issued instructions to its field
officers to give special attention to
securing positions for the guardsmen
who are returning totheir respective
homes to be relieved from active
military duty.
Commissioner of immigration E.
e Greenawalt, and Director of EN-
ploYment James L.. Hughes, who
have supervision of Zone 3 penn

ginia) OF the Government Employ
ment Service, have received many
letters from business concerns offer
ing their heart cooperation in plac-
ing unemployed guardsmen, and a
number of business houses, whose
men answered the enlistment call,
have not only kept their positions
open, but carried their names on the
pay roll. A certain per cent. of the
guardsmen, however, are not so for
tunate. 1t is the latter that the
United States Employment Service
desires TO assist, and any one call
ing at the main office, Nos. 1924

There are many available opportun-
tiles for mechanics, and skilled and
unkilled laborers.

cred by private employers, the Gov
eminent has positions open. in Phil
adephia and vicinity for approx
mately 800 persons, including ma
chinists, toolmakers, instrument
makers. brass mouIders, black
smiths and helpers. skilled work
men (male and female), machine
operators (male and female), ect. %,
The opportunities offered by the
Government apply only to citizens
of the United States.
The United States Employment
Service, aside from assisting return
ing guardsmen, is finding jobs for
both men and women in many lines
at good wages. The object of the
service being to assist all wage earn
ers to improve their opportunities
for profitable employment, applicas
ton for which may be made at
either OF above Offices.

You become constipated. The food
you eat ferments in your stomach in

mach and you will soon be as well as
