Manager Brown Of the telephone
company says this paper was misin-
formed in regard to the company's
expected loss of telephone subscrib-
ers when it stated last week that the
company anticipated the loss Of 40 to
so per cent of it's instruments. He
says the company does not expect to
lose as many telephones as this. but
this paper is inclined to believe that
percentage will hold good in some
communities.

not know when we will go, as there

yet, but we can be assured this di-
vision will go back among the first,
as there is none over here that has
done harder fighting or accomplished
