Not only in the ditch digging line or something of that sort but to some payable; permanent jobs that give evidence of the appreciation we have for his own big job that has been so goodly finished.

Some of them have families to support, some par ents and some have themselves to look after which, by the way, is enough in these hard times. Look around in your section of country and see if you cannot suggest a soldier or sailor every'time an employer in your neighbor hood needs help. You will not only be doing a duty for yourself and the em ployer, but you will be doing your duty for your country as well.
