8 KEDRON GIRL "IN FLOOD AREA Miss Hazel VenDyke Writes the Editor from Concord, New Hampshire The Oshawa Daily Times Ms re- ived a most interesting letter from Miss Hazel B. VanDyke, formerly correspondeny at Kedrpn for this newspaper. Miss VanDyke is now training at the New Hampshire State Hospital, Concord, N. H. We are sure Miss VanDyke will not mind if we share this letter with our read- ers: Nurses' Residence, 105 Pleasant St., Concord, N, H, Dear Mr. Alloway: Have been reading aboutfthe floods of the New England States in your daily paper and was quite in- terested as I am in the flooded d:s- triet, although yery little damage was done here in comparison to some of the other wities in New Hampshire and Vermont, althought we were al- most isolated for a time as the Mer- rimac River overflowed its hanks and the flood came into this City from two directions, completely ¢ut- ting off the railway connections to and from the City. All the bridges on the main highways were washed out, the telegraph and telephone service was completely cut off, and the only way of communication with the outside world was by aeroplane. The only. mail we received and all the Boston papers had to come in by aeroplane. It was quite exciting here for a time as there are two sisters in training here whose home is in Montpeluo and they were nea.- ly frantic, They tried to send tele- N.H.8.H. ' grams to find out if their parents were living but could not get them through. They finally got a reply by air 'mail that their parents were saved from the house-top but their home was flooded--not very good news but quite a relief to them to know that their parents were still living. 1 .am getting along splendidly with- my training. Have passed all my exams so far with a high per- centage, sometimes making 100 per cent. I have the record of making the highest mark in my class so I feel quite proud of myself in the progress I have made. I am in my eighth month now so hope I can do as well throughout the remain- der .of my course. I certainly enjoy getting the Osh- awa news every day and certainly missed if when it didn't come when the flood was raging and the mails were all mixed up. . Yours truly, HAZEL B.

Recogni- tion of the benefit that acerues to both employer and employee from the operation of the system has re- sulted in double the calls for work- than there were in 1926, and a more commodious office space will great- ly facilitate the rendering of ser- vice fo this city. The office will move to its new address December According to the local manager George Haniilton, the past season has been featured by remarkable ac- tivity in the building trades, and on several occasions calls for skillea workmen have been sent to outside points. Electricians, plumbers and carpenters have been in steady de- mand, which has continued strong during the past two weeks. morning a call for bricklayers was also received, the first for a week. The demand for these skilled work- men is continuing, but is being fill- ed now entirely from the ranks of the city's unemployed, and it is no longer being found necessary to ap- peal to any of the outside offices for men. The call fof unskilled or semi-skilled workers is beginning to lessen, and a surplus of laborers is beginning to develop. The activity that has continued in Oshawa this year has been broadcast over a wide area, and workers have been flock- ing to this city, with the result that a real problem in the placing of un. skilled men is developing. The Women's Department of the Employment Service is also inereas- ingly untilized, and numbers of do- mestic workers and casual or day workers have been placed each week. Hardly a day passes in which six or seven women are not placed in the latter class, in homes whee the housewife wants a washing done or the floor waxed, or the house dusted, ete. Maids, cooks and cham- hermaids are also being placed in increasing numbers in homes in the city, as well as in the various in- stitutions in this distriet. An object of the Service is to he of just as great 'assistance to the ladies as it is to the men, in keeping with its aim to supply the demand for labour, no matter what or where it is, and through the various branch offices in the larger centres, unem- ployed workers are placed in man different sections where they are needed. "Hugh Layal," a romance of the up country, hy T. R. Elliott, is a ale of intrigue, adventure, and ro- mance in the picturesque Northwest 'ountry of Canada in the days of the nidneers.
