"ralk louder" Don't yell So" Get
closer to the instrument" Don't talk so
far away-can't hear a word you say"
are some Of the messages sent by people
who use the telephone to the person at
the other end Of the line. The words are
often accompanied with evidences Of i'll
will and Impotence, at which the tele-
phone operator smiles.
Every time l hear a remark Of that
kind" said the manager Of a large ex-
change, 81 am confirmed in the belief
that, despite its popularity, everybody
does not know how to use the telephone.
Zone of the mistakes made by many
people who use the telephone is that they
do not place the lips close enough to the
instrument. Some people make this error
because they can't forget the old style in
strument. In order to obtain the best re-
suits with it it was necessary to keep the
lips a few inches from the box and to
speak across the opening, and not into it.
Get further away from the phone was
the cry when the old style instrument
was in use. and some of the old subscrib-
ers have this distant habit as the tele-
phone people call it, and they are usually
told by the one at the other end to talk
louder

1t is useless to ignore the fact that
there is a growing opposition to the death
penalty. This is shown in the increasing
difficulty of securing convictions which
involve that penalty. There are proba-
bly, hundreds of murderers at large today
who owe their immunity from punish
ment 10 the reluctance Of jurors to the
taking Of life by the state. This may be
illogical, squearnishly sentimental and all
that. but it is aInatter Of which legislators
are bound to take account. To fix penal
ties Of which public sentiment does not
secure the enforcement is dangerous law
making. Post.
