If your daily task irks and you are filled with vague ambition that you are unable to ex- press, you cannot be happy. Contentment and happiness are synonyms for “self respect.” Too often “self conceit” passes for the deeper emotion. Vanity in the business world frequently feeds on polished finger nails and immaculate linen, at the cost of & decent income and the joy of accomplishment. Ask any YELLOW CAB salesman of trans- portation—you will find him behind the wheel of every one of our cabs—how he likes his job. His face may be ruddy from the winter winds, but in s eves is a merry glint nurtured only in the great outdoors. He will tell you he is happy. He does not need to tell you he is proud of his job. You will know it. The management of the YELLOW CAB Co. wants more of the right kind of men to meet the increasing demand for modern motor transporta- tion. We want to get hold of nimble minded, physically active men who hate the routine of shop, office or store. To such men we have an exceptionally inter- esting proposition with an opportunity to make a real income, as well as to get into one of the most fascinating of modern businesses. Selling YELLOW CAB transportation at the wheel affords profitable contact with every type of humanity. Such experience will develop your latent executive qualities more rapidly than any other employment. Come in and let us talk things over. Hail Them Anywhere Yellow Co.
