On Thurs- day morning Allan Stroud, agent, i stated that as a resuit of the item { which -appeared in tais paper four | men were ablo to get positions. | While a representative of the Whig } was in tue employment bureau, a i lady called up and said that she not- | iced in the Whig that men vere anx- | ious to get small jobs, and she had decided to have some repairs made | to her furnace, so she would like a man to come up. On Wednesday 2 local hide dealer asked for a man to do a few hours work, and he was able to get a good man. When the man had completed the work, he re- ceived a note stating that his ser- vices were very satisfactory. Wednesday morning Queen's Uni- versity asked for two experienced firemen, and were able to get them In quick order. An out of town con- cern applied for two experienced firenien and it is very lilely that the local bureau will be able to get the men they require. It is not a question of men not want- ing work, Lut it is a question of get- ting work for the large number who seek positions. If citizens, who have small jobs to do, would get in com- munication with the employment office they would be avle to get good mean. It is stated that conditions in Kingston are not nearly as bad as some other cities of the same size. The fact that such a large number of Steamers have tied up in Kingston harbor will mean that there will be a great deal of work after Christ- mas, Theatrical 3 At the Grand. "Open Your Eyes," the wonder- ful photoplay that is shc ing at the Grand Opera Hou.e Jl tL 5 week, is the strongest le .~ nght liv- ing ever produceu on stage or screen. The picture fs *'.c "social evil" right from the sh..ider, but is handled in such a way that it can- not offend the most sensitive spec- tator, This picture was originally produced under the United States Public Health Service, and when it was brought into Canada it was banned on account of the public not understanding the type of picture it was ; but when the Ontario govern- ment realized the type of picture ft was, and what a wonderful educa- tional value was contained in it, they placed their stamp of approval on it and it is now offered to the public as one of the greatest ways of combatting the "'social evil" yet devised. No parent or young per- son of either sex can afford to misg this wonderful picture as it has a ge for each and every one. In | Anderson Bros. Limited | Week-End Specials for Xmas Baking | 500 Ibs.
