in immense quantities at minimum

TELEPHONE TIPS.
How to Save Time and Annoyance
when Using the Phone.

How to save Time and Annoyance
when Using the Phone.
TO be a good telephone talker is some
thing of an art. but in these days it
should by all means o. cultivated as
much as any Of the methods of polite
conversation, says the American Tele-
phone Journal. The first requisite is
the proper pose.
In all cases the transmitter should be
as nearly vertical as possible, with the
voice funnel so adjusted that it Is on a
level with the lips when the head is In
the ordinary arched position of CONVEX
sation. Then the lips should be held
about an inch away from the funnel
and directly opposite its center. The
speaker should talk in a tone slightly
above the ordinary conversational pitch,
about in the same way as if he were
speaking to person across the room.
But, more than all. care should be
taken to talk slowly and to articulatR
with the greatest distinctness, to be De
liberate in what one says and to make
ample pause at the end of each seq
tence.
The telephone is such a time saver
that one, even over toll line, need not
be unduly worried in being in too much
of hurry to finish. On the contrary,
time and annoyance for oneself and
ones correspondent will be saved by
talking slowly and allowing a little
time for the mental reception of the
ideas that one wishes to transmit.
Nothing can be more erroneous in the
use Of a solid back than to stand at q
distance from the instrument and en-
deavor to affect it by shouting at the
top OF ones lungs.

THE GEM OF LAM0ILLE.

By the banks where the river winding,
On meadows of emerald green,
Near natures o 'er marching splendors,
A mimic Arcadian scene;
Near headlands of wonderous beauty,
Celestial in sunlight glow,
Where springs of llmpid clearness
Forever from hilsides flow,
And the eddies of foamng waters
By the rocks do ceaselessly boil,
There stands the home of my people,
My Morrisvllle, bright gem of Lamoille.
Where the mountains surrounding the
valley
Like ancient amphitheatres old
Are tinged with the gistenng splendors
OF the evening sunlight's gold,
And the SUBMITS of towering Mansfield
Look lovingly oyer the hills,
And hundreds of tiny brooklets
Come dashing in tremulous rills
Where over the heights of Old Elmore
The sun, rising, calls us to toll,
And ever she heeds the summons-
My Morrisville, fair gem OF Lamoile.
From out OF its leafy shading
Peep the turrets of Castle P A,
That realm of learning resplendant
Where the Knight of the Birch holds sway,
And faces tairer than morning.
With grace IDeXpressIbly sweet,
And youths so Godlike in feature,
And Minerva-like teachers we greet;
All add to thy beauties, fair village,
With virtues that time may not soil
May you rest in favor forever
My Morrisville, sweet gem of Lamoille.
Oh, liberty flowing people;
Oh, cradle of the brave and free,
With virtues too many to mention,
inscribe these lines to thee,
Where genius first bursts into promise,
And great men are started galore,
To none we yield the banner.
Far back from the tunes of yore.
Eacn glen sings its song of freedom,
Afar from the great worlds turmoil;
Nv blessings | leave with you kindly,
Thou fair, peerless gem of Lamoille.

The American Way.

An object lesson In American enter
prise and "get there" spirit, which
some of the Presidents critics COM
plain of as too, strenuous" in him,
was given in the acquisition of the
Panama Canal. How it was done is
told succinctly by The Chicago Inter-
Ocean as follows
"The property ofThe Panama Can
al Company was transferred to the
United States May 4. On the same
day the control of the canal zone
passed to the United States. May 9
a system of government, with Major
General Davis as executive and the
Canal Commission exercising admin
istrative and legislative functions,
was organized and promulgated.
The next day j. F. Wallace, general
of the Illinois Central Rail-
way, was appointed chief engineer Of
the canal.
THUS in one week the United
Statesgovernmentcam came into possess
ion of the canal property, came into
control of the canal zone, organized
q government for it, and placed a
tactful, efficient man at the head of
the department of construction.
Work is to be carried on under the di.
section of the War Department, and
the Canal Commission is to play the
part in Panama that the Taft Com
mission played in the philippines.
So begins the era of action. This
is the American way of entering upon
a great undertaking. 1t is the bust
ness mails way of promoting enter
prise. 1t means that the isthmian
canal is to be completed in the short
est possible time"
The American people, however, like
that sort of strenuOusness, and the
President will lose none of his popu-
larity from the way he has OF causing
things to come to pass.

FAIRLY CRUMBLED
Slocum's Life Preservers Filled
With Powdered Cork
RAISING OF THE WRECK

Possible That Bodies Win Be

Timbers and Machinery--Total
Number of Dead and Missing
Now Placed at One Thousand
New York, June 24-Much of the
testimony given at the inquest yesteR-
.day into the General Slocum disaster
went to show that the life preserVers
on the steamer We're practically USE
less. At least half q dozen witnesses
DESCRIBED first of all how difficult these
life preservers were to get at and next
how they fell to pieces at critical
times.
Paul Liebenow, passenger on the
,Slocum, who lost six members Of his
family in the disaster, declared that
when the wires by which the pre-
servers were secured in the racks would
not give he took hold Of the prcseryers
and they crumbIed like so many soda
crackers. Another witness, Reuben II.
Tudor, testified that several bodies
doated with life preservers on. 10
test one of them lie said, he pulled it
to pieces with his fugernai. He still
had that life preserycr in his posses
sion and promised to send it to the dis
$rict attorneys Office.
Other witnesses told of similar eG-
periences with the life saving apparatus
on the SlOcum and of the great amount
OF powdered cork that loated on the
water after the steamer was beached.
Captain Van Schaick was brought in
to the court room on strctcher. He
apparently was suffering greatly, but
expressed willingness to undergo an
examination by the coroner. He was
ordered back to the hospital however,
and his examination postponed until
next week.
The week of the Slocum was
raised yesterday and a great deal Of
water was pumped out of the hold. A
search was made for bodies, but none
was recovered. At the next full tide
the hulk Will be taken more inshore. A
thorough exploration of the wreckage
has not yet been made, and it is pos
sible that bodies will be found in the
ENHANCEMENT of timbers and ma
.cf1inery. Supervising Inspector Rode
of the United States steamboat inspec-
tion picked up a number Of life pre-
servers on the main deck Of the Slo-
cum and tagged them for use in the
government investigation. These pre-
servers were badly torn and more than
half filled with powdered cork.
Twenty-four additional bodies have
been recovered, bringing the total num-
Der Of known dead up to GOT. One
hundred policemen who have been max
ing canvass of all districts where
persons were reported to be missing
completed their work last night. In
spector Schmittberger who was in
charge of the canvass, estimated the
total number of dead including the
missing, at about 1000. He said that
the police in many instances found at
their homes persons who have been of
ficially missing since the day the steam
er was burned. In one case man, his
wife and two children, whose names
had appeared in all the published lists
of missing, were found at their home.
They had not been on the excursion at
all, and the elders were. not even aware
that they had been reported missing
Others among the "missing' were
found at hospitals and at various other
places.
