Soon Be in Order.

The Mena Telephone company will soon be ready for business. About half the subscribers are already con nected with central and can call up some of their neighbors, and it will only be few days until the "hello girln will be in her office and the sys- tenn will be in complete running order. Secretary Kelly states that no charges will be made for the use of the phones until December 1. This will give the subscribers a couple of weeks free talking.
 Between now and December l, Mr. Kelly will call upon those who have not already subscribed for phone and give them an opportunity to do so. In this final round up he should be able to add quite number of sub scribers to the list. The system the company has put in is first class in every particular. The best and latest improved instruments have been put in and good service is assured. The company deserves a great deal of cred it and liberal support for putting in such superior system-one that wolud be credit to any city.
