A lad who should do well demonstrated in Masterton last Wednesday that the way to get a job is to go after it. He found his opportunity at a horse sale, at which a large number of farmers assembled. When the auctioneers had had their turn the youngster addressed the farmers standing round, told them ho wanted a job, and invited any of them to give him one. There was no response at the moment, but the lad was not. disheartened. He next tackled the farmers individually and went from one to another until he came across one who agreed to give him a job, His pluck and initiative thus stood him in good stead, and he proceeded to his job on Thursday.
