VETS BUREAU MEN
WORKING in CITY
Continued FROM aaee one,

Mr. Emmons will be found there
during the week he is to spend in
the city each month. Red Cross
officials are cooperating with tn !,
government men in handling the
work. Disabled former service
men Of this vicinity have been re-
quested to report their cases to the
Red Cross so that an appointment
with Mr. Emmons or Mr.. Helms
may be made.
The fields in which the former
soldiers may receive training ar5
many. Here is what some of the
men are doing here: Salesman.
automobile mechanic. barber,
butcher, dental mechanic, shoe re-
pairer, automobile painter, clerk,
man in glass plant and ractically
every other vocation. One man
took business course and is now
receiving practical experience with
a business house. Three men are
taking teachers training at the
Fairmont State Normal School.
Several Fairmont boys are comp1et
ing their college courses in West
Virginia University at Morgantown.
May Go to College
Both educational and trade train
ing are open to the men. Former
soldiers who have completed high
school work are being sent on to
college if they desire to go. In
some cases men are given an OPP
portunity to complete high school
work. For those who do not want
to take up school work dozens OF
vocations are open.
The government pays the men in
training 500 a month for single
men and S135 month for married
men. If the disability of the sol
der proves so great that he can
not work at the trade selected he is
often given an opportunity to try
another. Those who are unable to
make good at any trade are placed
on the government wal. compensa
ton list.

Coal loading on the Monongahela
Railway in Pennsylvania on Friday '1i5
took turn for an increased coal
production when 11s cars We're
loaded, compared to 80 Thursday
and l31 cars Wednesday. Weekly
figures will show that this field has
gained some in coal production
compared to last week. The gain
may he less than 100 cars for the
week, however.
The increased production is com
ing from the same mines rather
than additional plants being re
