There is no time they occur more often than at reunions when you meet old friends and jaw about familiar stories and events. That is why Centennials are so popular -and are so necessary 411 order to pass our heritage down to the younger generation who so soon will add to what has gone before. So you think you have a tough time at work? The following set of roles, unbelievable as they sound to us today, actually existed in offices back in the 1800's. 1. Office employee will daily sweep the floors, dust the furni- ture, shelves, and show-cases. 2. Each day fill lamps, clean chimneys, and trim wicks. Wash the windows once a week. Each clerk will bring in a bucket of water and a scuttle of coal for the day's business. 4. Make your pens carefully. You may whittle the nibs to your individual taste. 5. This office will open at 7 a.m. and close at 8 p.m. daily, except the Sabbath, on which it will remain closed.Each employee is expected to spend the Sabbath by attending Church and contribut- ing liberally to the cause of the Lord. 6. Men employees will be given an evening off each week for courting purposes, or two evenings a week if they go regularly to Church: 7. After an employee has spent 13 hours of labor in the office, he should spend the time reading the Bible and other good books while contemplating the Glories and building up of the. Kingdom. 8. Every employee should lay, aside from each pay a goodly sum of ..his earnings for his benefit dming his declining years, so that he will not become a burden upon the charity of his betters. 9.4 Any employee who smokes Spanish cigars, uses liquor in any form, gets shaved at a - barber shop, or frequents pool and public halls, will give me good reason to suspect his worth, intentions, integrity, and honesty. 10. The employee who has performed his • labors faithfully and without fault for a period of five years in my service, and who has been thrifty and attentive to his religious duties, and is looked upon by his fellowmen as a substantial and law abiding citizen, will be given an increase of five cent's"" der day in pay, providing a just return in profits from the business permits it. Every week more and more people 'discover what mighty jobs ,are accomplished by low cost Huron. Expositor Want Ads...Dial Scaforth- 527-0240.
