There are few among the homemakers of Ann Arbor who have not more than once been obliged to face the difficulties arising from the present methods of obtaining service of any sort pertaining to household labor; and there are a few among those wishing to be employed who have not lost time and wages when seeking occupation. It is the object of this bureau to establish such means of communication between employer and employed, as will commend itself to the working interests of the community, and be of mutual benefit. The Ladies' Library, being centrally located, has been chosĂȘn as the office of the bureau, several ladies having volunteered their services in eharing the dutjes connected with it. A register containing names and addresses of copyists, amanuenses, dressmakers, seamstresses, menders and repairers of clothing, nurses, domestics, washers and ironers, and for the better kinds of laundry work, scrubbers, house cleaners, as well as waitresses competent to assist at times of social entertainments, will soon be opened at the bureau, and we earnestly ask those wishing for work in any of the above mentioned occupations to place their names upon the register, as well as urging the co-operation of the householders with this society of mutual help by asking for their patronage.
