C.P.R.'S NEW RECORD The re-employment of returned soldiers has been carried out by tht C.P.R. so whole-heartedly that according to the official records up to the end of August. actually more returned soldiers have been given emploY- ment than left tile Company for service overseas. The exact figures ire as follows:— Total reported as joining the Army Dead Wounded Re-employed in the service Other soldiers given employment Total soldiers given employment to date 10,538 :1,000 1,952 5,024 5,543 10 567 In finding employment for returned soldiers, the C.P.R. has found by experience that in most cases it is advisable to reinstate them In the same department as that in which they worked previous to enlistment. The freight handler who has ambitions to become a dining car waiter is not •encouraged ,,o change his vocation unless he can prove that he learned something about waiting. for instance, at an, Officers' .tuess dur- ing his military life. His military experience has probably made hint a better man than before for handling freight but has not qualified him for the skilled trade of a dining car waiter. Baggage men who have served in the Army come hack as a rule all the better for their ex- perience. but the Army training has not qualified them ro be sleeping car conductors or ticket clerics, and if they prove to be misfits at a new job the only result is friction ,and discontent. The. general experience, however. is that the normal returned man -who goes back to his old or a similar job Is all right, Indeed Is often improved by the discipline and teamwork which he has learnt In the Army. The policy of the C.P.R. hes been to find a liosition at least as good as the position given up, 'and this piney has been carried out in the higher ranks of the service as well as in the lower ranks, Thus: Mr. T, S. Acheson who was employed as General Agricultural Agent at Winnipeg, enlisted In October 1915, was re-employed in the same capacity on January 1st, 1913. Mr. G. W.
