Telephone Achievements; IS.

underground talking distance had increased to
10 miles. Ely 1912 1t was possible to talk un'
dcrground from New York to Washington.
It was then that the construction OF Under
ground conduits from Boston to Washington
was determined upon,-not that il was ex>
pcCtcd to get a through underground talk be-
tween those places, but in case Of storm or
blizzard. to utilize intermediate sections i'll
connection with the overhead.
Our persistent study and incessant expert.
mcntation have produced results more re-
markablc still. &*" 80:
We have perfected cables, apparatus and
methods taat have overcome obstacles hereto
fore regarded as insupcrable both to long-dis.
lance overhead and underground c%Onvcrsa-
ton.
Underground conversation is now possible
between Boston and Washington, four times
the length Of the longest European under
ground line. This enabled the Bell System in
the recent great storm, so destructive on land
and sea, to maintain communication for the
public between all the principal points on the
Atlantic :eaboard. Z. . =:
Telephone communication is established be-
tween New York and Denver. is potentially
possible between all points In the United
State. and by 1915 will be an accomplished
fact between New York and San Francisco.
IN our use of methods or apparatus, we are
committed to no ono system. We own. con.
troll or have tho right TO use inventions neces-
sary to operate any system recognized or &C.
cepteJ as the most efficient. The Bell System
must always recognize, and in its selection
must always be. governed by the necessities of
a national service, with its complex require
ments, which is infinitely. more e~xacting than
local or limited service. ~
These achievements represent vast expendE
lures Of money and immense concentration OF
effort which have been justified by results of
jmmeasurabIe benefit to tho public. No local
company unaided could 'ear the financial or
scientific burden of this work. Such results
are possible only through a centralized general
staff. avoiding wasteful duplication of effort,
working out problems common to all, for the
benefit of all. ,. +.
The pioneers. of the Bell System recognized:
that telephone, service as they saw it, was In
the broadest sense a public utility; that upon
them rested a public obligation to give the
best possible service at the most reasonable;
rates consistent with risk, investment and the
continued Improvement and maintenance of its
property.
without this expenditure of millions and
concentration of effort, the telephone art as it
exists could not have been developed.
What we have done in working out these
great problems in the past should be accepted
as a guarantee of what we will do in the fu-
ture. s.. .- a...

PROPER Freedom OF CHILD
Writer In the Atlantic Finds Some
Fault With the Modern System
Of Training Him.

An exceedingly complex subject,
this question Of the freedom Of the
child. writes Simeon Strunsky in the
Atlantic. I am not sure that un-
derstand 1t. Neither am sure that
the militant advocates Of the freedom
of the child understand it. At any
rate, in SO many arguments about the
rights of the child. I find q lurking
argument for the rights Of the par
ents as against the child. The great
Implication seems to be that the mod
ern way for q mother to love her chill
dren is to have the teacher love them
for her. The modern way to train
the child Is to deny him the indul-
gences which the child, as the victim
of several tens of thousands of years
Of foolish practice, has learned to ex.
pect from his parents. The freedom
Of the child seems to demand that he
shall be restrained in his desire for
personal communion with his parents
which may interfere with the latter's
freedom to realize themselves in their
own adult interests, whereas at
school the child must not be re.
strained in going about the serious
business Of his life. There must be
method and discipline in the matter
Of . child's sitting up after supper

HATS IN MANY SHAPES
SHOULD BE EASY TO FIND ONE
THAT IS SUITABLE.
coIors Are Usually Employed for
Sporting Wear-NotabIe sersere
Effects Have Caught the
Fancy Of the ParIsIenne.

For sporting wear colored hats are
lovely. One was in pale raspberry
pink felt, and the ribbon around the
crown was in exactly the same shade.
Then there was large buckle in dull
blue horn. Such hat as this seems
to call for floating veil in white
washing lace.
The Parisiennes. at last accounts.
were quite enthusiastic over the small
er sailor shapes in white, pale blue
or pale pink felt.
These smart shapes fit down on the
head after the manner Of q mans hat,
and they can be trimmed with band
Of wide ribbon or with q single rose
placed fiat on the brim, near the front.
Some milliners, and very many Of
our Photographic beauties. have exag-
gerated the bergere outline. We have
had models which were raised at the
back over dozens of roses or VOL
luminous loops Of ribbon. These hats
made the head look grotesque and ex.
aggerated, and so they came to be re-
garded with suspicion.
But one Of the most important and
influential milliners in the Rue de Ia
Paix was an enthusiastic admirer Of
the Louis XVI period, and she has
created some notable bergere hats
which were received with rapture by
the more exclusive Parisiennes.
One Of these models is Of black
velvet, with satin ribbons, in sapphire
blue, combined with dull red roses.
This gives excellent results. or It
might show black velvet ribbon with
q single pastel-pink rose. These hats
demand that the hair should be
dressed high and rather loose at the
sides.
: Several smart hats are distinctly
lampshade In design.
These hats have domed crc7ns GOV.
cred with velvet or satin, and trans
parent brims made Of tulle. chiffon or
shadow lace. One model chosen had
q dainty little wreath Of dull gold
roses, framed in silk leaves, circlins

In the same atelier q similar shape

very dark purple. The crown Of the
het was circled by q narrow band Of

large black satin iris which had I'll

The charm and popularity Of fiat

There is a marked effect on both the physical and mental development ol child. Comparative estimates nave been made in many schools ana COT leges. and it has been shown that those infected with hookWorm disease had a general average grade of rom eight to twelve per cent lower than or pupils not infected. The same Is true of athletics, it being rare to ma hookworm subject on the best toot- ball, baseball or track teams, A great many other tests have been made, too numerous to mention here, but all tell ing the self-same tale of deficient men tai and physical development and vi- tality. Furthermore, hookworm disease predisposes to every other disease, and if any other disease is contracted the patient is much more liable to sue cumb, as the vitality is lowered.
 It is estimated that each worm draws one drop of blood every twenty four hours. and in addition injects a 
 toxin that poisons gradually the entire system, thus it is easy to see how large number of worms would soon sap the energies and vitality from the health of the individual.
 Many of the dropsical cases sup posed to be due to kidney trouble and many of the thin emaciated subjects thought to be due to consumption are found to be infected with hookworms, and respond readily To the treatment, and many of the tubercular cases that go on and die would get we'll and live out their expectancy if all those in- fected would have treatment and give nature a chance to restore health.
 Thus it is Seen that the effects of the disease are almost limitless. Superintendent of Public Instruction George B. Cook says it is costing Ar kansas one-fourtn its annual cotton crop. This is entirely too conservative when all it's phrases and ramifications and end results are taken into consid- eration.
 Treatment
 The treatment is simple and effec- tive. Various remedies are used, with more or less uniform results. Thymol is the medicine used exclusively by the Arkansas State Board of Health Fol lowing are instructions for the pre- paration of the patient and the ad- ministration of the thymol.

No Exemption From Road Duty
snecial tn Indenendent.

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, Oct. 9.-The pos session of a physicians certlfl- cate is not in itself sufficient to exempt the holder from road duty. This is the advice that Attorney General Moose has given to Frank Erwin, of Ok ford. who wrote that he has a certificate from practicing physician to the effect that he is unable to perform manual la bor. In reply to a question II that would exempt him from road duty, Judge Moose says:
 q do not think it will. The digest provides that all per sons who are unable to per- form physical labor by reason of physical disability shall be ex- empt from working on the roads. There is however, no provision in the law for a cer- tificate to be accepted and the person furnishing it excused from labor on the highways. The certificate is not conclusive. 1t does not prove that the person is unable to perform labor by reason of physical disability. It does not prove anything, for one reason because it is not under oath, and because the law does not provide for it. The only question in such a case is whe- ther the person is really disabl- ed to the extent that he is not able to perform labor. If he can perform labor for himself on the farm or in a workshop, the supposition is that he can work for the public on a high way when he is warned, and if he refuses to labor on the high way, it will be the duty of the grand iuries to indict him and have the courts to impose the punishment which the law pre- scribes.'

Destroyed Bridge But Lost

 Havre, France, Oct. 9. The individual bravery of the Brit ish army engineers is being lau- ded here by prisoners and wounded coming from the front. An instance of the courage of these bridge-builders is shown in the account of how an engin- eer-sergeant gave his life to save from annihilation a small body of English engineers who were protecting a bridge. The odds were against them and the Germans were on the point of crossing the bridge when the sergeant darted out under the German fire, set a quantity of high explosives under the first span and destroyed it. Forced to use a. short fuse he had no time to escape and was blown to pieces.

Three of them are pupils of the same master, Cesar Thomson. They are an interesting and distinguished group of men, intensely temperamental, and wholly absorbed in their work. I have read a great deal in Musical America and other journals of their popularity in Europe
 How have they been received in this country this winter,' l asked.
 "Oh enthusiastically, she replied. "ln Chicago, New York and Boston they have and it is safe to predict that not many ognized throughout America as in Europe as the greatest string quartet in exist ence. As they already d<serve. l am delighted over their coming to us, and feel that the Music Study club deserves great credit for bringing to our opera houses the splendid attractions they have fostered this winter. This form of mu- sic. which is so wonderfully produced by the Flonzaleys is so rarely heard that. feel it can be counted as one of the few opportunities of a lifetime
 Are you anticipating a large house, Mrs. Woodson?" I asked.
 Surely yes. The Birmingham people always appreciate a good attraction. They are discriminating and know the best, and they patronize the best. The Flonzaleys are the best and there will be large audience to greet them at the Jefferson Monday evening"

CHAT WITH MRS. WOODSON
 ABOUT THE FLONZALEYS

Knowing that Mrs. R. c. Woodson is familiar not only with the playing of the Flonzaley quartet, who will give a con- cert at the Jefferson tomorrow evening, but that she is thoroughly familiar with the history of the organization she was asked to tell me something of them for publication, "Of course" said she. "mu- sical people all over the world know that the Flonzaleys are one of the greatest aggregatons for the giving or chamber music in the country, but a- little of their personal history may be interesting. The question: Who is Flonzaley Is frequently asked. There Is no such person either
 in the quartet or out of it. The name
 was adopted from E. J. do Choppets charming Swiss villa, where the four ar lists were first brought together. The quartet was founded in 1903 by MT. de Choppets and named after his villa "Flonzaley.' The fame of the sores given at the villa soon spread abroad and series of towns through Holland, Ger many and France made the European reputation of the quartet. How long have they been touring this country?" l asked.
 Five years under Charlton's manage ment, with phenomenal success. Tell me something of the personality of the four artists?" They are Adolph Bette,
 who plays first violin; Alfred Pochan, sec-
