THE EMBREE BROTHERS have a lumber yard at the address given for the alumni association in the telephone book. In fact, the Embrees were having a little strike trouble and Bill was in the back hewing a few trees into lath lengths when there came a knockknock on the door that was neither a raven nor a walking delegate. It was a weary traveller looking for the Dartmouth Alumni Association.

The stranger was given the hand of welcome and when the pressure of business forced Bill back to his lathing, he left his guest with a little brown jug that the Wilken boys had sent over. Bill returned later to inquire how else hospitality could improve the wayfarer's outlook and discovered the load on his heart had lightened noticeably. He seemingly had but one other present need- a job. So Bill arranged for a job. Seriously, that is how simply the plan works in Chicago.

Louis Leverone and his Vocational Committee all are people who know people and we confidently look forward to their accomplishing the Association's most important post war task. It will be a pleasure to see the servicemen back in "civies" and to watch them fatten up.
