DEPARTMENT. LABOR
OPENS BRANCH OFFICE
BYRON A. HARRERT IN CHARGE:
WILL SEEK MEN AND POSITIONS
Duties Not Confined to Securing Helm
for Government Work Exclusively
but Will Help All

The Clarion has received the fol.
lowing from the branch Of the federal
department of labor recently opened
in Jennings, La. This branch viii en-.
deavor, as this shows to find employ
ment for men who are seeking it and
laborers for those employers needing
help. The communication follows:
TO the Public:
This is to inform you that an office
OF the United States Employment
Service has been opened in the State
Bank Building, Jennings, La, for the
purpose of helping employers to find
labor and labor to find work.
For the carrying on of such a work
there is being established five branch
offices Of the United States Employ
ment Service In the various parts Of
the State. Each Of which has given
territory, and all communications
should be sent to the office representa-
ing that territory. The office at Jen.
nings represents South West Louis
lana.
In case the officer in charge is IN.
able to secure the labor or position
in his territory, he appeals to other
offices for aid.
AS the name indicates, this office
deals with skilled and unskilled labor
in every branch or division OF service.
And / hope the public will not get the
erroneous idea this this office deals
with government work only. While
we do secure some labor for govern
ment work, we also secure labor for
each and every man or woman who
wishes to employ any kind Of labor.
Further, positions are secured for
anyone wishing employment In any
kind of work, at no expense to neither
employer or employee.
1t is conceded that there is not the
surplus Of labor that there was before
the war, owing to the fact that there
has been such a strain on labor from
military draft and government works;
but | feel quite confident that we shall
be able to find labor, or employment
for you, If you will submit your labor
troubles to this office.
I sincerely trust that patriotic citi-
zen will cooperate with the United
States office in every possible way to
plenty Of help for our food
supply, and the carrying on OF every
business that shall help to defeat The
Huns.
All communications should be sent
to the u. s. Employment Service,
Jennings, La.
Sincerely,
BYRON B. HARBERT.
Junior Examiner in Charge.

the people to uphold the Republican

work done in the war with Spain.

GHENT FALLS TO ALLIES
HAVE ALL OUR SACRIFICES
BEEN IN VAIN?

Two million of our boys are facing death
in France today. They are fighting to bring
the blessings of Free Government to the World.
They are dying that the sons of many nations
may have the right to vote.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN THE
HOMELAND?
Will you vote in Tuesdays election? Are
you a patriot or Stacker? Will you refuse to
vote on election day while your son is fighting
that other nations may have the right that you
despise? Are you willing to slight the privi-
lege that men are dying to maintain?
The Goddess of Liberty is calling the Free
Sons of America. The spirit that called your
sons to the Battle Line is calling you to the Bal
lot Box. You must serve the Sacred Cause of
Freedom by showing to the world that the right
of voting is no meaningless thing. You must
show your sons in foreign nations that their
sacrifices have not been made in vain.
ALL PATRIOTS WILL VOTE TOMORROW.
THOSE WHO DON'T ARE SLACKERS.
