~ TRIS SPEAKER ONCE , TELEPHONE LINEMAN Tris Speaker Is a national figure— every one who knows anything about our national game knows this great ball player. Back In 1906, this popular player was a telephone lineman down in Hillsboro, Texas, happy and contented. 0 pulling down $2.00 a day, with the 0 ambition to get along and eventually 2 become plant chief. His record card. 6 still preserved by the company, shows 0 that he went to work for the Hillsboro Company, September 1, 1906. and In February. 1907, was laid off when work became slack, as he wus the last man taken on. It is recorded that j be was a good workman and that the - telephone company parted with hlin g with regret Out of a Job, Tris devoted himself to baseball In which as bd amateur he bad made considerable reputation, and the rest Is base ball history. Tris Speaker Is accustomed to headlines on the sporting oages of the ' press of the country, but no tr.bute could surpass that paid to him by one of his old. telephone associates, who said of him: "I remember that Mr. Speaker was always kind and good to his mother." , OPERATORS, LIKE ORATORS, MUST HAVE TRAINED VOICES Good grammar Is as desirable in speech as In business and social eorre- 1 spondence. Clear enunciation emphasizes the use of good grammar. We may pick our .words with the great- ] est care, but the effect is lost if we < run them together, or Jumble them In our speech. Distinct speech is a desirable asset, 1 but can be acquired only by practice. < We admire the distinct speech of actors and actresses and of some pro- ' fesslonal platform speakers. Every word they utter is spoken, not sharply, • but clearly and plainly. While occupying places far removed j S from the public platform, telephone 1 operators, as a class, nre as highly . trained In the art of speaking as the { folks of the stage. j ' When a telephone ope-ator speaks j : to you over the wire, every word she says Is clear and distinct, even if she , repeats only the telephone number you £ have given her. Clearness In speech ] Is an essential qualification for a place at a telephone switchboard. j If distinct talking Is so Important } on one end of the wire it must be < squally Important on the other. It Is *' a fact that more than 90 per cent of

"wrong number" calls are due to the to slurring and Indistinct speech of the el telephone user. Calling a telephone j number distinctly helps to speed up the telephone senr* •. DOCTOR COMMENDS TELEPHONE WORKER Gable Splicer Renders First Hid to Injured Man In Most Approved Method, Omer Kendlg. of Hnrrlsburg, Ph., a cable splicer of 'he Bell Telephone Company, hns proven very conclusively that he can administer skilled First Aid treatment. Ills work has been highly commended by a physician. While driving ne>r Mlddletown, Pa.. recently he came across an automobile that had been struck by u freight train a few minutes previous to his arrival, painfully injuring one of the occupants. He first made sure tliut a doctor and an niubulu.ee had been = junimoned, and tleo rendered First j Aid treutment. Upon the arrival of the doctor It tH was found that, due to Mr. Kendig's pT prompt and effective treatment, it jj was unnecessary to render further CE 'reatment ntll the Injured man was removed to the Hospital. pf About 95 per cent of the llneuien. J cable splicers. Installers, etc., employEE ed by the Bell Telephone Company nre capable of rendering efficient Firs ^ Aid in almost an kind of accident J or sudden sickness. Mr. Kendig's EE rase Is one example of how thoroughly telephone men nre trained in this remeet. 5 HOW TO USE TELEPHONE TO t GET HELP IN EMERGENCIES 5 The telephone Is an Invaluable aid A emergencies If properly used. E In case of an emergency in which the firemen, or a policeman or an am- " hulance may be needed, keep cool. Or If you can't keep cool, Just keep as cool as yon can and reach for your 'elephone. Give your call for help to the operator in such a way that your need will be understood. Don't simply shout "Help" and then drop the Instrument. The operator will not know what sort of help you want. The right way ti summon help is to say, for example: "T want to report a fire." "I want a policeman." "I want an ambulance." If you are compelled to leave the telephone before your call Is answered be sure to tell the operator where th. I hain is wanted.

MEET AFTER 16 YEARS | (Wildwood, N. J.) Sixteen years ago two girts began an exchange of postal card, and letters acting upon a suggestion in the Family Magazine. They continued ' the correspondence until their court- ■ ship days were past and they were ■ happily married- The vears passed by but still they continued to ex- ■ change ideas, i Two years ago one of the two came , to Wildwood and opened a boarding . house, iMrs. Alice Pancoast and urged ■ her correspondent friend, Mrs. J. H. Hughes, of Worcester, Mass., to visit . her here this summer. Mrs. Hughes agreed and the two friends met at . Broad street station, Philadelphia, identifying each other by pieces of red, white and blue ribbon pin.it-j to their coats- Mrs. Hughes is ac:ompanied by her sister, Miss Mqateith ' and after greetings were over the par1 ty proceeded to Wildwood in an automobile driven by Mrs. Pancoast's brother, Mr. Hamilton- The visitors were interviewed by Mayor Smith and the courtesy of the city extended to them. They were interested in watching the bathers last Monday but could not be induced to try bathing where the breakers are so rough.
