his native country to teach. Mr..
Tanikawa is a good example of
what pluck coupled with a deep de-
sire to learn can do. He came to
the United States about six years
ago, and during that time he has
acquired a broad and comprehensive
knowledge both of the American
people and their institutions. He
has worked his way thru school un-
aided, and that he did his work
we'll was shown by the fact that he
not only received his degree with
distinction" but that he was also
awarded scholarship in philoso-

The Centred Telephone Co.

It is truly marvellous how good
the Minnesota Central Telephone
Co. is getting to be since the Bird
Island Telephone Co. began opera
tions in this village. First came a
raise in rates with a plea that an ex-
change could not be operated unless
this was done. then after finding
that the people would not stand for
a raise, the party line idea was
sprung. This not securing the
business, the trust informed the
dear people that its phones could be
rented at the penny-a-call rate, and
to cap the climax free phone service
will now be given between Bird
Island and Olivia. Why all this
generosity? Did we get reduced
rates prior to the time competitor
arrived? Milky! The rates were
raised. Would we get these favors
had not the independent company
started to build q system in Olivia
and agreed to give the people of Bird
Island and Olivia and connecting
farmers lines free service between
the two towns? Not if the trust
knows it's business. Stick to the
new company, fellows, it's giving
the trust a chase for its life and
this little I'VE love you'' act is but
the result of q fight to the death
between the independent and trust
