            Dear Sir:  I have an opening immediately for a man with a
            thorough knowledge of French and Spanish, to go abroad
            with a committee representing the officials of this company.  If
            present plans are completed, the party will leave next
            week on the Ile de France and remain overseas
            between six and eight months.  The officials already
            have expressed their opinion that it will be necessary to employ a
            college man not over thirty-five of good family.
            It will be of special value if he has some knowledge
            of finance.

            You will readily agree that getting such a
            man no easy task.  I feel that, since
            you know so many college men, as well as your
            own fellow classmates, you may be able to send one
            of them for this job that really has a future in it.

            May I ask you to phone my office soon.  Yours truly,
