Pointers for Job Seekers

Don't pay any one who offers to
get you civil service job
This is one of the warnings issued
by the Department of Labor in a
pamphlet published today giving
practical pointers about jobs in the
Government and in private in
dustry. Prepared at the suggestion,
and with the aid of representative
group Of labor officials, the publica-
ton devotes special attention to
employment opportunities under the
national defense program. Unless
specifically requested to do so by
the Civil Service Commission. job
seekers are advised not to come to
Washington.
The first rule for getting a job
in the Government arsenals and

Besides athletics. the morale di-

ture bookings. The Army uses vir-
tually every production of the
motlon picture industry, rotating
the shows through its theaters at
most OF the posts. Bookings usually
are three features week, plus one
double-feature bill.
Plans have been made to extend
the motion picture service to the

Broadly, the athletic program

providing recreation for the en-

limited participation. Army reeu-
lations permit not more than one
commissioned officer to play on any

Varied Late Fall
Hunting Season
Offered Nimrods
G. a m e Birds, Waterfowl,
Squirrel, Bear And Deer
May Be Taken.

Minnesota hunters can more than
get their fill of the sport this fall
when, beside the open season on up
land game birds, migratory water
fowl and squirrels, there will be
a hunting season for deer and bear,
with a special fve-day deer hunt
ing period in Itasca county, for bow
and arrow fans.
The hunting season swung into full
stride this week as sportsmen in
vaded lakes and marshes in quest
of waterfowl. With shooting per-
mitted between sunrise and p. m.
daily, the season began Monday and
will continue through November 20.
The daily bag limit is 10, the posses
sion 20 birds.
Pheasant Season October IL.
Pheasant hunting in specified areas
will begin October IL and continue
through November 8. Southern zone
shooting of Hungarian partridge will
extend from October IL to 10. An
other season holding interest for many
sportsmen is that on squirrels from
October Is to December 81. The
limit, on both gray and fox squirrels
in the aggregate, is seven per day and
IA in possession.
Already behind Minnesota sports
men are two seasons. The shooting
period on prairie chicken and sharp
tailed grouse expired October 2 along
with the northern zone shooting of
Hungarian partridge. Among the last
of the upland game bird seasons is
that of the quaH, November to 18,
in specified areas.
Bear, Deer May Be Taken.
There will be bear season this
fall but chances are that most bruins
will be snugly denned up for the
winter. Fixed by law to coincide
with the deer season which is No
vember Is to Is inclusive, the bear
season normally finds the quarry hi
bernated for the winter. Occasion
ally a bear will wander out of it's
den on warm sunshiny day but that
these cases are rare is attested to by
the few bear bagged by deer hunters.
The special five-day deer hunting
season for bow and arrow fans will
precede the regular 11-day season
this fall and will be for Itasca county
only Technicians for the department
of Conservation, piecing together re-
ports on deer populations made by
game wardens, are expected to an
nounce regulations for the season
soon. Statute DEGREES that this shoot
ing period be from November Is to
25 inclusive.
