Laborers Wanted.

By James White

THE rapid increase of the business of the Seventh-day Adventist Publishing Association makes it necessary to secure more laborers. Young men and young women, of good natural and acquired abilities, and firm physical constitution, are wanted in the different departments of the work at the REVIEW AND HERALD Office. Several young ladies are wanted to learn to set type. Three or four young men are wanted to become acquainted with the printing business. And the business department requires two or three young ladies as clerks, or book-keepers.

We do not hold out large money inducements. We are in need of young men and young women, who have the cause of God at heart, and who are not afraid of active and hard work.

Apprentices of the right stamp at the type can earn their board, the first three months. The second three months they can earn their board and clothing, unless extravagant, for the first six months of their apprenticeship. The third three months they can earn one dollar per day. And at the close of the year, wages of young men, worthy to hold a place in an office like this, will receive ten dollars per week. Our best men receive twelve dollars per week.

The young ladies at this office who are Adventists wear the reform dress. Those who have not the moral courage to do right in this respect need not apply. Those who have written to us relative to a position in this office may come immediately, taking upon themselves, however, the risk of answering the above description. And we shall be glad to hear from others immediately by letter.
