C. • To the Operator We want operators—good operators—to take advan- tage of our Employment Bureau and use it for their own advantage. We want a complete register of every opera- tor in New York City, those in employ, and those out. of a situation. To the present we have, had 24 applica tions. We found situations in New.York for seven and outside one, and are now in a position to place eight or nine more into good berths. Twice last week we were rung up on the 'phone for operators Jo go to Jamestown Exhibition, once for in- formation from our list, but the applicants were too far away to do any good; another sent a letter seeking a high-class operator, and we were unable to supply him off-hand. There was never so great a demand for skilled help as at the present time, and we can get situations for men, as we say above. .They must be honest, sober, well- dressed, well recommended, with recent testimonials, that will bear investigation, capable of going into Fifth ave- nue houses without bringing discredit upon themselves or their employers. The lowest salary offered is $22.50 with traveling and hotel expenses, while the highest is for a confidential position of trust, $35.00 per week. Fill up and return to us the blank found on another page, stating if only for register or for situation. All applica- tions will be treated in strict confidence. Directory We are compiling a complete directory of every lec- turer, lanternist, cinematograph operator, vocalist (who uses song slides), lantern slide maker and colorist in the United States. We need our readers' assistance in this task, and again ask them to send us names, addresses and qualifications of those known to them. We tender our thanks to those dealers who loaned us their lists, and operators who sent us names. At the lowest computation there are 15,000, and we want them all.
