Show Employment In The Army William C. Webb, Colonel, Field Artillery and District Recruiting officer, announces a recruiting party will visit American Fork August 30, for the purpose of interviewing young men interested in employment in the army. Vacancies exist in the Thirty-Eighth Thirty-Eighth Infantry at Fort Douglas, Utah, and this opportunity is open to young men between eighteen and thirty-five years of age who are single, sin-gle, without dependents and can furnish evidence of excellent character char-acter from two responsible citizens who have known them for a number num-ber of years- Army compensation compares most favorably with many well paid civilian jobs. The base pay of the recruit is $21.00 per month. In comparing com-paring the total compensation of a soldier- with a civilian, it is only fair to include in Army compensation compensa-tion the soldier's clothing allowance, which is ample to keep him fully and comfortably clothed and if he is careful, will leave a cash surplus which he may collect upon his discharge. dis-charge. In addition soldiers are given free medical and dental treatment treat-ment and hospitalization when needed need-ed and their pay continues during any period of sickness. Food, of course is furnished in great abun- dance and variety and costs the soldier nothing, and is prepared by cooks trained in the Army's own Cook and Bakers Schools- It is thus easily seen that a fair comparison of Army pay with civilian compensation compen-sation will disclose that even the lowest paid soldier receives a total of actual cash, together with clothing cloth-ing food, quarters, medical care and other allowances which will equal or surpass many jobs in civilian life. Call or write the Army Recruiting Office, 451 Federal Building, Salt Lake City, Utah, or contact the Recruiting Re-cruiting Party when it visits your town. o |
