The Telephone Question.

c. E. Walling, special agent of the
Cumberland Telephone. ~ and Tele
graph Company, is in the city look
ing after the Union City end of the
lines. Mr.. Walling was kind
enough to furnish us some particu-
lars regarding the present status of
the company and the rural lines
from this point. He says that the
Cumberland people are furnishing
instruments and maintaining rural
lines at the rate of SAP with three
to six on line. With six on a line
the cost to each is 81 a year. He
says that the company can furnish
direct and duplex lines at the same
rental charges made in the city here
but not any cheaper than that for
the reason that it would be a dis
elimination. The company will
however, he says, if an exchange is
wanted at any of the neighboring
points to connect with the Union
City exchange, make the connections
with a charge only of 81 a month
Any number may be subscribers t.
the rural exchange. The whole
number of farmers stations in op
Grafton here up to the present BY
the Cumberland Telephone Compan,
has reached 1,101.
Mr.. Walling believes that tn,
Cumberland people are making al
honest effort to give the rural com
munities the best service possible a
the lowest rates, and he points gu
the above propositions to show VIVA
they are doing.

At call meeting oil the 0biou County
Rural Telephone Company last Saturday
at the courthouse we met with great sue
cess and we are more determined than
ever to put il to the front, as a committee
vas appointed to secure a charter at
once.
II we would stop to think for a mo-
ment We would find that Union City Is
the only town in West Tennessee or
West Kentucky that has no Rural Tele-
phone System, So when we get into
operation we will fill in the missing link
from Jackson, Tenn, to Paducah, KY,
and all other points where the rural
systems are in operation, for they have
promised exchange service with us with
out extra charges whether in the county
or out Of the county or State. Just this
that our monthly dues will not be
one-half as much as we have been pay
ing.
Some one said that two telephone
systems could not operate in the same
town or city with success. You can
readily see that this is a mistake, for
look at Jackson, Trenton, Fulton, May
field, Paducah, ETC., and also you see
from advertisements in papers that some
cities have as many as three systems in
operation.
So now let us all join in with the pres
ident, Mr.. Todd, and bis committee and
push it on to success.

Something that has been or is to be.
l read of the banquet that you had
last week
And that you could not get there on
account of the sleet,
But the big auto truck, which was
filled with hay,
Sure did carry the ladies all merry
and gay.
Coffee and sandwiches, ice cream
and cake,
The wonderful music the musicians
did make.

to the readings;
In fact everything that made up the
proceedings.

For in Union City that is all the go.
For when you gather together in the
home of the pastors wife
To quilt, eat, be merry and enjoy
life.
Do not think for one moment be-
cause l am in the sunny
South
That you can make me the least bit
hungry in the mouth,
For it is in the heart that the
hungering lies,
To once again look into your dear
loving eyes.
am sure that you will have a sue
cessful dinner,
For along that line the Ladies Aid
are surely not beginners.
And to make everything successful,
not one will hesitate OF
pause,
Because they want to build a par
sonage, therefore they work
for a good cause.
And upon my return in June
hope the church and Aid will be
on such a boom
That the fowl they catch will be a
Drake,
Because of his capture there is much
at stake.

Children Need Watching.

attention could be given the children of
Memphis, beginning with the age of six
months, that the necessity for restora-
tive measures, such as Filings, crowns,
regulating teeth, and extraction of per-
manent teeth, could be reduced rs per
cent. Most of the gastro-intestinal trou-
bles of small children are due to infec-
ton from the teeth. It is not an un-
common thing for mothers to chew the
food for the baby, thinking, of course,
that she is doing the baby a great kind.
ness, but in reality she is doing the baby
an injustice. In fact, all she accom-.
plishes is the infection of the food
which the baby swallows, and then the
baby becomes infected.

them as advisers to the laity as to thu
problems of health, and especially th,

In Memory of Mr.. Witherington

tribute to one of our friends and
brother, who departed this life on
the 9th of January. His has been

loving hands could do was done.

home many times; never one time
did he murmur or complain of his
Affections. He seemed to be patient
ly waiting the summons of his Heav-
emily Father 1t fills our hearts with
sadness to think of his being torn
away from our earthly circle, but
we almost shout with rejoicing when
we think Of his joining the Heavenly
circle, where there is no more sick
ness, death nor sorrow and trials of
this life. Dear companion and
family, l know your hearts are torn
and bleeding and longing for his
presence, but would you call him
back to this world of sorrow? Would
you, If in you power, have him back
suffering untold agonies of disease
l am sure that in your hearts vol
will answer no. For he has paiG
