There are a lot of peopl" in town
that think the switchboard isn't large
enough to handle the calls when there
is a FIRE. This is not the case. The
Switchboard for the protection of the
inside apparatus is fused and this fuse
is supposed to blow when an overload
is reached. The Board will hold lS
lamps to every 100 and as the Board
is multiple this mean SO lamps burn
ing with IS receivers off the hook.
This notice is sent out with the con-
sent of the City Council and Tho
Brookings Fire Department. The OPP
orators at the Telephone office are
not expected to give Fire information
only to FIREMEN.
Here is the reason-We can't give
Fire Service to all, 1893 Telephones
We want everyone to have FIRE pro

don't receive much glory but things
couldn't move without them. Words
cannot express our feelings at seeing
boy after boy leave our ranks but we
send our best and heartiest wishes for
success with them, with the wish that
they may each be permitted to return
to us safe and sound.
Our minds have been running along
military lines in the past few days
and they 50 continued in that channel
on Monday. when Lieutenant A. G.
Bracket from Camp Dodge, spoke to
us. He gave IA splendid talk, starting
out in a light vein, telling army jokes
and then going into a more serious
line of talk telling us that it is up to
us (and not only the soldiers) to win
the war. Our duty is right here at
home and altho it does not look to US
as if we were doing anything to help
the war, we are. If we do not keep
our places and do our work, the army
can do nothing. New lines of thought
are constantly brought to our atten-
ton by these outside speakers, which
We enjoy so much.

MURDOCH AT
TACOMA FOR
THREE DAYS

Murdoch and his company will
be the offering at the Tacoma the
alter starting Jan. %, for three
days.
Murdoch is white mahatma of
eminence, white mahatma being
a singular gifted person with the
ability to read and answer sealed
questions. The questions in the
case of Murdoch are written by
members of the audience. They
may either be written at home or
at the theater and they may have
to do with any subject.
Many people ask questions
about affairs of the heart. Mat
inee and night Murdoch answers
queries that concern settled or
proposed business changes. Many
persons ask about missing rela-
tives, or absent friends while
probable recovery of sick friends
and the welfare of our boys in
France seems favorites. Murdoch
answers all.
In addition to this interesting
part of the entertainment there
VIII be a series Of puzzling and
startling feats Of Hindu magic.
There will be two matinees ON
Saturday and Sunday, starting at
$3.50.

SAVE DADS LIFE
GET IT FOR HIM
Says it is suicide to cut
corns and tells how they :
lift right out.

You simply say to the drug
store man, Give me a quarter of
an ounce of freezone." This will
cost very little but is sufficient
to remove every hard or soft corn
from ones feet.
A few drops applied directly up
on a tender, aching corn should
relieve the soreness instantly, and
soon the entire corn, root and all,
can be lifted out with the fingers
without pain.
This new way to rid ones feet
of corns was introduced by q Gin
cinnati man, who says that while
freezone is sticky it dries in a
moment, and seems to simply
shrivel up the corn without in
flaming or even irritating the sur
rounding tissue or skin.
Don't let father die of infec-
ton or lockjaw from whiting at
his corns, but cut this out and
make him try 1t.
