RESERVES M REVERSES

A simple transposhiOn of letters spells both-reserves and re-
verses. A simple Encouragement of conditions will produce either.
These two words, so alphabetically akin, carry the relationship
into their meanings.
The intactness of your reserves depends upon the extent of your
reverses. The seriousness of your reverses is accumulated or minin-
lied by the amount of your reserves.
Wherever either figures. both are factors. Each depends upon
the other. They are equalzers. They determine the points of sol
vency and liquidation.
A defensive warfare is one of reserves and reverses.
The allied offensive is designed to continue Germanys reyerses
till her last effective reserves are thrown into the fray.
1t is at once perceivable that the frequency and weight of
allied thrusts determines the speed with which the length and strength
Of tbe Hun parties will be determined.
Through all Of hfe's v~ieisstudes, the principle of reyerses
versus reserves stands unchanged. One fnancier lightly regards a
setback which would be anothers calamity. One mans vital forces
magnetic his personality while another's depleted by excuses, con-
siitute a diluted form Of energy that is his last reserve.
Though no reverSes arc anticipated through indiscretion, negi.
gence or wilitul disregard OF natural laws, it is to our individual SELF
interest to amaSS reserves all along life's battlefront. For those who
do. the element of chance has no terrors and the spectre Of worry is
nn unfamiliar vision.

can avail themselves of the service
to increase production.

GOVERNMENT WILL ASSIST WAR
WORKERS TO FIND
NEW JOBS.

Washington, Dec. 1S-The thous-
ands of civilian war workers in the
Government service who will soon be
dismissed because their services are
no longer needed will be assisted in
finding Unemployment through plans
now being arranged by the United
States Civil Service Commission.
On the recommendation of the
Civil Service Commission the Presi-
dent issued on November 20 an Ex-
ecutive Order which provides that
the names of persons in the COMPETE
tive classified civil service with UNI
restricted status who are appointed
either permanently or PROBATIONARY
prior to the date of order. who have
served less than three years, who are
separated from the service because
OF a reduction of force, and who are
recommended for further employ
ment by the Government because of
demonstrated efficiency in the office
from which they are separated will.
upon request, be entered by the Civil
Service Commission upon appropri-
ate eligible registers for reappoint-
ment, eligibility thereon to continue
for one year from the date of separa-
ton. The Unemployment registers
thus established will be used as far
as is practicable for filing positions
in the Government service.
1t is expected, however, that there
will be surplus of eligfbles on these
unemployment registers, and in order
that those who cannot be replaced in
the Government service may find p0-

SMILES AND TEARS GET MIXED.

Two little stories came to the Red
Cross headquarters from over the seas
q short time ago. One was q story Of
bravery that brought the tears, and
one 4 tale Of tears that brought smiles.
The first story was Of soldier who
asked for q light. He was In bed, and
4 cigarette was between his lips, plac-
ed there by the nurse after she had
finished spreading his blanket up
smoothly. At his question, she turned
and gave him q box Of matches and
hurried on, then remembered that the
arms beneath the blankets were with
out hands.
Nurses have to be without tears, but
there were tears in her eyes as she
turned to strike the match and light
the cigarette for him.
"Quit that" he said, ''they were good
mits, and they helped get three or four
Germans before I lost them, but they
amt worth crying about, 50 there!"
And the tears story that brought
smiles? Well, that was the story Of =
big, husky, colored man, who sat read
Ing, and the Red Cross worker at the
canteen saw that he had tears running
down his cheeks. She was curious to
know what he might be reading and
was ast0nished when she looked over
his shoulder to see that 1t was the
canteen cook book. :,
He smiled through his tears az he
saw that she was watching, and said,
"You sure must excuse me,
ma am, but this here book done make
me blamed homesick. I'm 'shamed to
make . baby outen mahse'f. but this
makes me think O home"

sitfons in private employ, the Civil
Service Commission has asked the
cooperation of the Department Of
Labor in the work of finding suit
able employment in private estab-
lishments for dismissed war workers
who can not be further employed Dy
the Government.
1t is the view Of the Civil Service
Commission that the machinery Of
the Government should be used to
the fullest extent in finding employ
ment for the war workers, for it is
realized that considerable number
of them entered the Government SER
vice at some personal sacrifice to help
with the war program.
