Telephone Lore.

"When I telephone while sitting,
as l customarily do" said a woman
who telephones a great deal, II habit
ually speak in a low tone, not very
much above a whisper; when l tele-
phone. standing up l don't shrek ex-
actly,, but / find myself always speak
ing in a loud tone. l suppose the rea-
son for these things is simple enough.
When l am sitting I I'M comfortable
and entirely at ease bodily and In
clined to do things easily, and then l
a adjust the telephone to exactly
the most convenient height and angle
and speak in 1t quite without effort;
it is all very easy, whereas when l
have to stand at a telephone some ef-
fort is required in that l am more or
less rigid to start with, and then the
telephone may be n fixed In posi-
ton. l may have to bend my face
more or less up or down to the trans
mitter, to stand in a position more or
less constrained, and then when l
come to speak l always find myself,
as you might say, shouting into the
telephone. 1t is my experience that

when sitting and telephoning as l do

Three Poles Fell Lynn Shoe Manufac-

Lynn, Mass.-Three Russian Poles,

killed Thomas A. Landregan, a shoe
manufacturer, and ~Patrolman James
H. Carroll on the street in the heart
of the shoe district about 9 O'Clock a.
m. Then they grabbed a hand bag
containing between $4,000 and $4,000
which Mr.. Landregan was taking to
his factory to pay off the help. In the
chase that followed one of the Poles
killed himself, the second was prob
ably mortally wounded and the third
was captured.
The first to give in was a man
about twenty-five years old, who when
surrounded by police in a thicket on
Ford street and wounded in five
places clapped the muzzle of an auto
matte revolver to his head and fell
dead. Soon afterward one of his COM
rades was spotted on Boston street
trying to hide in the bushes. He paid
no attention to shouts of Halt" and
the aim of the police was so much
better than his that he was soon
knocked over by the flying bullets.
