While the numbers of persons regis- tered for employment rose slightly due to the entry into the labour market of recent high school graduates, the number of available jobs remained at a good level. Many persons found work during the month in the service trades as waitresses, cooks and housekeepers, however, demands for these workers have not been fully met. Seasonal demand for general sales help has been well met with some shortages existing for specialized sales staff for furniture and ladies' wear. Generally, activity in the services and sales sectors has been brisk throughout the month.
