..HELLov cor THE DocroR
A St. Johnsbury Operator Did Good
Work For an Orleans
Physician.


The following which appeared in
the current issue of Telephone Top
ics' under the caption How we Cot
the Doctor" will be of interest to local
telephone subscribers, especially those
who whine about poor service. Miss
Myrtle Morse was the operator on
duty on the morning mentioned.
About one O'Clock on a recent morn
ing a physician at Orleans called for
surgeon at St. Johnsbury. The st.
Johnsbury night operator was unable
to call the party wanted because the
receiver of his extension set was off
the hook
The Orleans subscriber explained
that the call was very important as
he wished the surgeon to come to
Orleans on the morning train, leaving
St. Johnsbury at 3 a. m, and assist
him in an operation, in which delay
meant most serious possibilities.
The St. Johnsbury night operator
promptly solved the problem by call
ing the police station and asking that
an officer be sent to awaken the doctor
and request him to communicate with
the physician at Orleans. This he did,
in time to get his train and assist in
the operation. which resulted in the
recovery of the patient.
Both physicians expressed their APP
probation for the service rendered.
The police officer was offered a mes
senger fee, but refused to accept it,
stating that it was pleasure for the
department to be of such service, as
the night operating force at the cen
trail office had been of great service
to the police department.

WEST AND KAY WILL
ENGAGE IN A DEBATE

PORTLAND, Ore, July 1.-Oswald
West and State Treasurer Thomas B.
Kay will engage in verbal battle be-
fore the members council of the
Chamber of Commerce Monday at
noon, in an attempt to solve the riddle
of the proposed per cent tax limita-
ton amendment to the state constitu-
tion Mr. Kay will contend that the
proposed amendment if adopted would
hamper the administration of the state
government during the two years of
1917 and 1918, for the reason that the
state had money on hand when the
last legislature met and therefore re-
quired a smaller appropriation than
otherwise would have been necessary.
Because of this, Mr.. Kay contends, it
will require more than a per cent
increase over the last appropriation
to provid7 for the necessary improve
ments and additions, and to take care
of the normal increase in state ex-
penditures.
Both Mr.. Kay and Governor West
have notified Robert E. Smith, secre-
tary of the State Taxpayers league,
that they would discuss the matter
AS both of the speakers have an inti-
