WRETCHED SERVICE.
Complaints Upon All Sides About
The Poor Telephone Service.
Equipment Believed to Be
Unequal to Demand
Placed Upon 1t.

There is certainly some reason fol
the poor service which subscribers
to the telephone service of the 10
cal branch of the Chesapeake and
| Potomac Telephone Co. are receiv-
ing, and, in view of the promises
| made by the Company of improving
| the service by the installation Of
| a different system, the belief is quite
generally prevalent that the equip
| ment in use at present is not equal
to the demands made upon it. OF
course, everyone realizes that at
this season of the year telephones
are used a great deal more than at
any other, but the complaint of the
poor service does not arise from
the present demand, but is long
standing; in fact, almost long
enough to be out of date
Several weeks ago, when repre-
sentatives of the Company were
here for the purpose of engaging IN
a campaign for new subscribers, the
manager of the campaign was COM
PEELED to admit that the service here
was the worst he had ever encoun-
tered; this coming from an official
of the Company, could be consid-
cred as positive proof of the
wretched service which Cambridge
subscribers are compelled to pur-
chase
management nor with the local en-
ployees of the Company; Manager
Nichols is on the job all the time,
and the public here, notwithstand-
ing the treatment which it has re-
ceived and is receiving at the hands
of this Public Service Corporation,
has the most kindly feeling for him
and believes that he is putting forth
his utmost efforts for improved ser
vice; likewise, too, the operators are
courteous, as prompt as the equip
ment which they have to handle will
permit, patient to a wonderful de-
gree, so that no blame for the con-
ditions which have existed for
long time can be placed upon them.
1t rests solely upon those officials
of the Company who refuse to per-
NIT the expenditure of the money
necessary to put the Cambridge
plant in the proper condition to
handle the volume of business
which arises daily. 1t may be that
some of these officials feel that
they will "stand in" with the high
er officials by keeping down the
expenses in this manner, but the
economy thus effected is dearly
purchased by the Company, because
this policy S alternating the good
will of the public, and this is an
important and valuable asset to ev-
cry business concern, whether large
or small.
A continuation of this policy can
not fail to be unfortunate; it will
mean that the public will seek re-
lief at thea hands of the Legislators;
it will mean, too, that when this
is done, and the people learn hlr
pSwer, they VIII not be sa1ssfied
with the things which would now
be accepted as satisfactory. CAM
bridge subscribers are paying more
for this totally inadequate service /
than Salisbury pays for better ser
vice. We are compelled at this
time to take what we can get, but
if the Telephone Company does not
change its policy, they may be COM
PEELED to give a great deal more
than the public is now asking. Will
it's Management be far-sighted
enough to realize this fact? i;A

per ton was $4.75, but the company
in its bid, set the heating efficiency
so high, that the tests made brought
the price to the city at $4.2S ton.
Mr. Scherer suggested that the
student and teachers in the science
department make similar tests next
term, ana moved that the secretary
be instructed to correspond with the
secretary of the ST. Paul school
board and inquire into this system
and get the necessary formulate and
blanks No action was taken regard
ing the letter from the Chicago firm,
but Mr.. Scherer's motion carried, as
the board hopes by this method to
be still more economical next winter
DR.. Beach, who is chairman of the
property and expense committee, no
titled the board that he had made
arrangements to 60 on a tour of
inspection through the different
schools and see what repairs are
needed, SO that these repairs can be
made during the summer vacation.
Immediate action was necessary, he
thought, and so, after considerable
consultation, it was decided that the
high school and Union building be
visited at four o'clock this after
noon, the trip to be made by auto
mobile A list of repairs needed, was
presented to the board last night,
and these will be compared with the
results of the inspection tour.
Want instruction in Sewing.
Mrs Smith of the school commit
tee reported that fifty-two girl stu
dents had asked for instruction in
sewing and cooking during the sum-
mer months, but the class is so
large that it will be impossible for
Miss Jennings to teach anything but
sewing. She stated that during the
senior year, one girl made four
dresses and several other gowns,
while another girl made her own
graduation gown, which spoke highly
for this department. At present
there are five sewing machines, and
this number is not enough. One
more machine was needed, and it
was thought that if arrangements
could be made with some local deal
err, on the basis that if the machine
was purchased in the fall, the rent
paid during the one month of sum-
mer would apply on the purchase
price, sixth machine would be in
stalled. The school committee was
authorized to rent machine for
one month.
Superintendent Sperry made his
report.

Superintendent Sperry's annual re
port will be out in few days.
Superintendent Sperry called at
tention to the fact that the law re-
uuires that a census of the school
be taken. While Mr.. Blissenbach
is law abiding citizen,f he had nc
intention of following this rule II
there was no penalty attached, be-
cause the mere act of taking a cen
sus would involve an additional ex,
pense. and of course. the board could
not afford it Mr. Scherer suggest
ed that the board look up the law
and see if there is any penalty Tor
it's violation in this case. Ii the
penalty, he reasoned, was less than
the expense of taking a census. then
it would be better to disregard the
law and pay the penalty.
Judge Evan Hughes was appoint
ed a committee of one to look up
the matter, but he stated upon his
appointment, that he was certain
there was no penalty attached.
Mr.. Soaring reported that the Luz
therans had paid up in full what
they owed for the rent of the school
during the building of the seminary.
Election Judges Appointed.
The following places and persons
were appointed as judges for the
school election to be held the third
Saturday in July, and the following
polling places were decided upon:
First district: Basement Franklin

Fourth district: Pleasant Grove
school. Rev. Nels Nordgaard, P. ii.
Jordon and William Polzin.
The president and secretary were
authorized to post notices and make
all arrangements for the election.
After the reading of the bills, the
matter of paying for the cuts USED
in the last issue of "Otaknam, the
high school publication. was taken
up. 1t was finally decided that an
order be drawn for $3.50 to pay Tor
the cuts, payable to James Bain'
manager of the journal.
Before adjourning, Superintendent
Sherry incidentally mentioned the
financial condition of the Athletic
association. He said that the athletic
manager had received and disburseo
during the year, $640, and that last
wear. the association had deficit
of about $85, while this year, 1t is
a little to the good. The "Otaknam
