JgQltfVThe people of a I telephone l— _r 4' central office swwirr i Moat likely you don't know the telephone opera- i tor, except, peri aps, to recognize her voice. Probably, too, you do not appreciate the importance of her work. But upon the proper performance of the tasks assigned to her depends, to a large extent, the satisfaction of x the subscriber and the success of the company. i In the Bell System the operators are a skilled group of 60,000 or more workers who are f thoroughly trained in the details of the business of operating before they ever say "Number, „ please," tr •» subscriber, and who are known v by their efficiency and never-failing courtesy. r Their supervisors and chief operators are pains- ■ taking and ^lert and have themselves "come f up from the ranks." ^ Without hesitation it can be said that no more n loyal group of workers can be found in this country than the telephone operators, and theirs is the star part in making Bell Service c the most efficient telephone service in the , world.

(Continued from first nage.1 p spoke in the morning on the text "Honor • | thy Mother, that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy ' J God giveth thee.' The following are •'extracts from the sermon: ' j "I stood not many days hence and adt mired one of the handsomest caskets . • I have ever seen. If was made of the choicest wood of its kind; its trimmings were of precious metal ; the linings were , of the richest fabric. In that casket rej posed the quiet form of a loved mother. J The beautiful and costly casket was the . silent token of honor on the part of I those who had in her life time called j this one 'mother. j "On another day I talked with a ! mother and she made this significant ! remark to me. " Ibelieve my children j love me as much as any children love their mother, hut then they do not j seem to know how to express their love.' j "Put then these two pictures together. ' | The one mother resting so quietly like i a rich jewel in a setting worthy of its I valne — but dead: the other mother liv- ! inR but yearning for some expression l from her children of the love that* she i felt was in their hearts. "Let us never forget to honor our mothers. For it has been the mother ' who through the ages has entered the ' Gethsemane of suffering and with the i death-damp of eternity upon her brow. I ' clasped hand with God as her children ' were dowered with the myst?rv of, life and .the glory of iminoflality.' Dr. Aikman in the Presbyterian spoke from the text, "Honor thy father and thy mother." He said in part: f "To-day is being observed all over America as Mother's Day. We all feel too much cannot be said of the sweet and abiding inflpence of mother. , was the famous Napoleon who said, "The greatest need of my nation is gjjpfi < mothers.' Noble j {hie,, are ' born of noble mothers. Water does not

e rise higher than iU fountain, head. While - there are exceptions to the rule, history will show that most all great men had good mothers. "St. Paul recognised this when he told - Timothy that he would become a good f man for he had a good mother and grand mother, t "Victor Hugo recognized this vrhea he • said, If you would have good men be U gin with 'their grandmothers.' The immortal Lincoln was an ideal I, son. 'AH that I am I owe to my mother,' said he. t The .illustrious Garfield, president of the United States, was. an ideal son. See e him when being inaugurated chief magistrate of the greatest nation on earth, - the assembled multitudes looking on, he steps down and plants a kits on the I. , brow of his devoted old mother. Beaur j tiful act, "Honor your father and your j mother." * a r We should honor them by our con- | duct, actions speak louder than worus. e j Have you- ever seen a young man lift his hat to a young lady and never o think of doing so to his old mother? f Yes. they often have smiles for the stranger and sullen looks for the aged parents, all of which they will regret ' j some day, when it is too late. - j Joseph was an ideal son. Riding in J j the second ohgriot of Egypt, lord of all t the land, but not ashamed of his vener- (. able old father."
