A WILLING MAN
EASY JOB? THE UNEMPLOYED SEEK WORK There has been much written and more spoken lately concerning the unemployment question amd there has been cioubt us to whether some of tho unemployed genuinely work. One AVanganui man has shown that he is willing to do any honest work to earn money. In the back seat of a large touring car displayed in a car depot, in the Avenue are two waxen figures of young laidjies, one of them lovingly embraced by a male figure, apparently of wax also. But the amourous young figure is not of wax, but of human flesh and blood.
It must be monotonous to have to hug a cold imitation of a flapper for hours on earl, but much amusement; must be derived from the faces of the passers-by who stop for a moment to view the unusual spectacle. It has been suggested that the job might not be so monotonous if the gentleman occupying the back seat of the car were to contract cramp through sitting in the same position for so long a period. The agony would be indescribable. However, it shows at least one of the local unemployed is anxious to holddown a job, no matter how hard or hiow easy it be.
