A WILLING MAN

AND AN EASY JOB? There has been much written and more spoken lately concerning the unemployment question and there has been doubt expressed as to whether some of the' unemployed genuinely work (says the Wanganui Chronicle). One Wanganui man has shown that he is \villing to do any honest work to earn money. In thei back seat of a large touring car displayed in a car depot in the Avenue are two waxen figures of young ladies, one of them lovingly embraced by a male figure, apparently of wax also. But the a-, mourous 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 end, 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 unemployment is anxious to hold down a job, no matter how hard or how easy it be.
