TELEPHONE SUBSCRIBERS
TELL THEIR TROUBLES

The Hattiesburg Coffee and Spice
Mill has been treated rather badly at
the hands of the Cumberland Tele-
phone Company in Hattiesburg. De
spite the fact that the manager OF
tho local exchange claims that the in
creased rate did not take effect until
August last year, this concern paid
$3.50 for the use of its Phone for The
month of July 1907. Since Tin. date
it has been paying the same rate.
Manager w. J. Force thought every
business concern was paying the SAME
rate, hence he has made no kick until
the Daily News told him better
The Cumberland Telephone Com
pany certainly robbed Mr. Force of so
cents of the $3.50 which he paid for
the use of his phone during July last
year. If the statement of Treasurer
Webb of the Cumberland Company
that there only 1916 phones on the local
exchange is true, that merciless corpo
ration owes Mr.. Force $3.50, which i
has collected from him without war
rant of law.

Jackson, Miss, July 1S.-General
Manager Leland Hume, of the Cum
berland Telephone and Telegraph Com
pany. in a letter to the railroad COM
mission. makes denial of the charges
made by the city assessor of Laurel
that while that company gave in 1926
telephones in that town for assess
ment, it actually had more than 400
phones, or charged a rate based on
that number, which is higher than the
rate, would be for 1926.
Mr.. Hume is not very positive about
his denial, however, and promises the
commission to investigate the matter
further within the next few days. He
states, however, that the company has
only SIT phones in Jones County, in
which Laurel is located, and intimates
that possibly confusion is made be-
tween those in the county and those in
the city.
This is not the only town where the
Cumberland people have gotten them
selves in the position of having to ex-
plain situations Like this, and for a
long time there has not been session
of the railroad commission in which
complaints of some character have not
been considered against this COM
pany for one cause or another. 1t
sometimes takes the form of persecu.
ton, but quite frequently there seems
to be more or less ground for the com.
plants. At any rate, it seems to be
quite the popular thing to jump on the
Cumberland.

There is only one Cumberland tel

Robert Donald. They are not partners.
DR.. Robert Donald is not a telephone

Eternal Feminine.

Men say that women's friendships
are not as staunch and true and last
ing as mems because a woman is SO
ready to believe all that she hears
against her best friend, while a man
will only judge his friend by what he
is to him, not by what the world says
OF him. Is this true? If so, it will re-
main so just as long as average charm
ers see in man nothing but possible

have to work up to Tuesday night in
order to round out things.
A great many who had been marked
delinquent by the committee have
shown that they had paid their taxes

removed from the delinquent list. 1t is
probable, however, that the list of
