An interesting and satisfactory feature of the weekly return furnished by an officer administering the Labour Department’s Placement Scheme,* was a list containing the names of 29 men for whom employment had been found. That fact In itself was not remarkable, but the tally of their ages induces the belief that the middle-aged and elderly men whose services have not been greatly in demand for some years are still considered to be capable of giving satisfactory service. Eight of the men are between 40 and 44 years of age, nine between 45 and 49, four between 50 and 54, three between 55 and 59, and five between 60 and 65.
