1.-TWO Number" Toll Calls.

Various reductions in rates or extern
siOns of talking periods are announced
by the New England Telephone and
Telegraph Company in connection with
a change in the method of handling
short-haul toll calls.
After May l toll calls to most points
within Is miles of any exchange will be
handled by what is known as the two
number no-delay method" This obvi-
ates the necessity of referring the call
to the toll operator and the somewhat
cumbersome process of having her ask
a lot of questions, such as Whom do
you wish to speak to- IF Mr.. So
and-So is out will you talk to any one
else?' Who will speak at your tele-
phone?" and so on.
1t is said by those conVersant with
the matter that it will not be long
before this number" system OF
handling toll calls will be extended to
apply between points 40 to so miles
distant, and even between such places
as Boston and New York, where there
is heavy toll traffic.
The points in this locality favorably
affected by an extension of the three
minute period to five minutes are Au-
guSta and Gardiner.

Pointers for the Motorist.

The average motorist has learned by
experience to take proper care of the
mechanism of his car, but he toe
often neglects his tires. Ordinary
care accorded spare envelopes and
tubes is good insurance, and will save
the motorist much trouble and money
Never carry spare tubes unprotect-
ed in the tool box-they will inevitably
come in contact with sharp tools and
greasy substances, resulting in their
serious injury. 1t is a well known fact
that oils and grease are deadly enc
mics to rubber.
Unless the tubes are to be stored in
the garage they should always be
taken from the original boxes and
placed in tube bags.
The Michelin Tire Company of Mill
town, y. j., is publishing two instruc-
ton books which contain much tire in
formation of value to the motorst.

RETURNS FROM TEXAS.
Hon. George E. Macomber Finds Little
Excitement Over Mexican War.

Hon. George E. Macomber has re-
turned from three weeks trip to the
South. during which he visited San
Antonio and Austin, Texas, in which
cities he failed to find nearly the ex-
element that he expected in regard to
the Mexican war. Except for the
presence of the large number of SOL
diers in San Antonio" said he, zone
would never realize that war was
progressing in a country so near at
hand"
While at Austin Mr.. Macomber met
DR.. e. p. Wilmot, leading banker of
that city and president of the Austin
National bank, who believed that
President Taft would sooner or later
intervene and put an end to the war in
Mexico. This was not the prevailing
sentiment. however" said Mr.. Ma
comber, and most of the people with
whom l talked We're inclined to look
upon the fighting in Mexico as an in
surrection that would soon blow over,
rather than a war of long duration"
"A fine sight at San Antonio" he
continued, was the presence of 10000
United States soldier on parade. While
our party was there a spring carnival
was held at San Antonio and one of
the ways in which this event was cele-
brated was by the parading of the en-
tire body of troops"
With Mr. and Mrs. Macomber on this
| trip were Mr.. and Mrs. Sumner Wal
| lace of Rochester, n. H., and George S
| Gentle of Houlton. The party on
their return from Texas visited at
Springfield, Mo, Hutchinson. Kansas
and New Orleans. Mr.. Macomber
says that all vegetation looked fine in
the country through which his party
passed, the season being at least six
weeks ahead of what it is in New Eng
land.

Ge.ernor plaistsd Resumes the Duties
of His Office,

Governor Plaisted was at his Of
flee at the State House Friday after
neon for the first time in II days, hav-
ing returned Thursday night from a
Southern trip, the greater part OF
which was spent at Savannah, Ga.
In response to an inquiry by Jour-
nal reporter as to what his attitude
was to be in regard to the submission
of the Davies direct primary bill to
the people he replied that he should
take the matter at once under al
visement and would announce his de-
cision in a few days.
A pleasant incident of Governor
Plaisted.s Southern trip was his visit
to Fort Screven, located on Tybee Is
land, at the mouth of the Savannah
river. where he was pleasantly enter
tanned by the commander, Col. Phil
brick, a former Waterville man. The
Governor is much improved in health
as a result of his trip and he reports
that the backward spring has been
felt as much in New York and Boston
as in Maine and he found neither OF
these cities any farther ahead in re-
gard to the new season than Augusta.
