A commendable example of unselfishness and consideration for their married fellow-employees is at present being show by the single tramwaynien in Uunediu. It seems that business is rather slack at present, aud it has been found necessary to. put some of the men off duty for a time. Hesitating to ask the older employees to stand aside, the department had arranged for the newest hands to do so. However, the men themselves have hit upon a plan which will at least allow married men to stay on irrespective of whether their service has been lengthy or not. To put the matter in a nutshell, a number of the single workers have been volunteering to go off thrbugh the medium of applications for leave, thus, allowing married men to be absorbed. They will, of course, be re engaged.
