A gold button will be awarded TO
every employe in the local office of
the Bell telephone system who has
been IN the service continuously for
five or .-pre years. The buttons will
be of gold nd blue enamel and are
presented a. token Of appreciation
by the con pan for the loyalty and
devotion to duty of those yho have
continued in its service
Each button viii have engraved up
on 1t numeral showing the term Of
service In periods of five years. Those
who have served five years and less
than ten will receive five-year badge.
and those who have served ten years
and less than Is will receive a ten

Brunswick exchange who viii receive
/ service record buttons, and among
! those who have had the longest term
of service here are the following:
=. l.. Jordan, ten years; Lula f..
Brown, chief operator. five years;
Ella Taylor, five years.
MS pan OF giving eFlueHce III SUCH
manner TO the company's apprecia-
ton of it's employees loyalty was in
augurated by First Vice President j.
Epps Brown, and he has written per
sonal letter to each of those who are
to receive the badges OF honor. The
awards for long service are in line
with the employees benefit fund plan,
safety-first plan and awards for sug-
gestions, which are an important fea-
ture of the Bell systems relations
with its employees.
An interesting feature in connec-
ton with the service buttons is the
fact that the longest term of service
is held by President w r. Gentry,
whose record is forty years. 1t is esti-
mated that more than 5000 Bell en-
/ ployes in the South will receive badges
of honor during January, and sur
prisingly large number of them are
women. e

Ohregon Refused Protection.

El Paso, Texas, Jan. 1S.-That the Americans massacred last week, went into Mexico to reopen their proper ties only because General Obregon promised to give them protection which was later refused them, is the statement made here by s. L. Sinp- son, a cattle buyer who arrived to- night from Chihuahua.
 Mir. Simpson was present when the party of Americans left Chihuahua City on their way to Cusihuirachic and was probably the last man in Chihuahua City who talked to c. R. Watson one of the victims.
 MT. Simpson says Watson went to General Trevino and asked for a mili- tary escort, but was told that there was no Villista force near and that there was no danger. Trevino added that he needed all of his soldiers at Chihuahua City, because he feared an attack from the south.
 When Watson told his American friends what Trevino had told him, they advised Watson not to make the trip without military escort. To tnlS WdtSOu Tcpllcu IHdI oo CAICJ "Oi V as far as Chihuahua City they might as well continue to Cusi and express ed no fear of attack.
 That Gen. Pablo Sianez, a 24-year- old Villa officer well-known on the border for his "gun plays,' ordered and directed the massacre of the Americans, is the assertion made to- night in Chihuahua by former Villa officer who knows Sianez. According to this officer, when Sianez left Juar- ez several weeks ago, just before the town surrendered to Carranza, he openly boasted that he would get some Americans before he was through with the war.
 Since then, said the Juarez officer Mexicans living on ranches around Santa Isabel have come to Juarez. From them was secured the informa- ton that General Sianez, with 90 fol lowers, was at Santa Isabel the night before the massacre and camped Tn the hills near the scene.
