The telephone service In this town
and community IL about as unsatisfac-
tory as il could well he. 1t Is AN inn
possibility TO get IA message anywhere
even To the central Office most of the
time. II seems rather hard and unbus-
incsslikc for the business men 20 pay
for and depend upon the phone In n
business wny and get such poorreturns.
Many OF the patrons are very much
dissatisfied, and say they had better
have no service at all. The manngo-
mcnt should look into the matter and
either run it better or get "down."
The byrata plant is completed, elec-
tric lights ali in, and everything IL wait
ing upon change in the weather. Mr..
w. II. Kcmlcr, the general manager,
and his wife are both are out of town
the former ut PitIsburg and the lat
ter in Ashland, Ky.
