If ever there, was a real, need' for work ers to respond to a. call for help, it is at the present timq, ',it the valley canneries. The canneries, have bought a good portion of the fruit crop in tho valley, nnd now they can hardly get help to can it. Tho 'success of the canneries means the success of every fruit man and his family. It means the keeping of money at home. Jt means the tiding over of a finan cial crisis. If the canneries cannot save this fruit, and loose money on It, they cannot do business, nnd if the cannerios go broke, who will buy the cannery stuff another year. If they fail, it is just possible it will mean a loss to every industry in the valley because there will be less money in circulation. Now It in the duty of every person who can. possibly work In tho can neries to do so. And unless they do, there Is great danger of their not being able to save the great amount of perishable fruit now on hand. We have been loyal during war time, now let us be loyal during strike time. "Now all together, let's help!" You are not asked to help with little wormy fruit, tho canneries have bought tho very best of fruit this year and the Bartletts at the Talent cannery is as fine fruit ns you ever handled. There is' almost a total absence of worms, scale or any other defects. The cannery is a nice, well equipped building, and you meet with courteous treatment. The wage is good, tho best over payed for cannery help. I know wherc-of I speak, for I, -myself, am working there, doing my bit to save tho pear crop of this part of tho valley.
