Earl’s Service Station Now Under Manage ment of Billy Wood jG&s and Oil Cigarettes. Candy & Drinks WASHING — GREASING THUS REPAIRS OPEN *4 HOURS A HAT U. S. Civil Service Issues Warning On Wrong Information Washington, D. C., Jan. 89.—The United States Civil Service Commis sion says that numerous letters re ceived at its office from different parts of the county indicate that mis leading information is being given to the public by agents of some of the correspondence schools which give instruction in preparation for civil service examinations. To guard against the loss of money paid for tuition of this kind the Ci vil Service Commission informs the public as follows: No one can promise appointments to positions If or iwhich the United States Civil Service Commission holds examinations. The claim that such assurance can be given brands the person making it as a fraud. Information regarding examina tions for the United States Civil Service may be obtained from the boards of United States Civil Service Examiners. There is such a board in each community which has a post office of the first or of the second class. In nearly all cities the civil service board is located at* the post office. Before paying money for tuition, or signing a contract, it is advisable to make inquiry concerning the pros pect of examinations. There is rea son to believe that agents of some schools deceive the public as to the probability of early examinations. No school has advance information regarding the need for employees or the probability of examinations.
