A Statement.

VI w AAAS@NA 49, ~ - NNA So .
twenty year development period
the growth of the exchange has
been slow but steady and now
the Telephone Company is serv-
ing about one thousand subscrib-
ers. This means that the value
of the service to the subscribers
has been increased five times
from the original number.
During this period many
changes have taken place. The
plant has been rebuilt, aerial
wire has been superseded by ae-
rial cable and as the aerial cable
became to heavy and unsightly
the Telephone Company has
placed certain portions Of their
plant underground. Probably one
of the most noticeable changes
and the one which the telephone
subscribers remember most dis
Itinctly is when the telephones
were changed from the Magne
type to the Common Battery
type. Formerly it was necessary
to turn a crank before calling
central but with the improved
type Of service you merely lift
the receiver from the hook. The
new type Of switchboard is
much more complicated than the
Magne type and the cost of fur
nishing service has gradually in
creased from year to year and
yet the Telephone Company has
maintained a rate of S100 per
month for residence telephones,
The larger the exchange the
more money it costs per station
to furnish service. This is due
to the fact that the original sub
scribers are usually concentrat
ed in a small area but as the city
grows it requires more cables
poles and wires to meet the out
lying communities. More compli
Gated equipment is required il
the central Office. Better trained
employees are necessary t
, maintain this equipment. For
merly it was only necessary t
: use one wire from the switch
board to the subscribers station
? but with the Common Batter!
equipment it requires two wire
from the switchboard to the sub
scribers station. This is a yer,
important factor from an invest
l. ment basis but it furnishes tn

By the Associated Press.
WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE. January 22-The elimination
of trench feet" from the American ex-
Evolutionary forces is expected to result
from q general order just issued from
headquarters. II specified occurrence
of the disease indicates a Lack Of good
sanitary discipline. the order makes or
ganization commanders directly respon.
sib1e.
There are a number Of highly impor.
tant tangents to the general subject
The hygienic causes OF trench feet" In
clude insufficient nourishment. lack OF
sleep and comfort and insufficient
causes are interference with the blood
circulation from the wearing Of socks
leggins and breeches too tight. Long
continued standing or sitting without
exercise. or prolonged exposure to wet
and cold.
The remedies ordered are that all com
manding officers shall supply men with
la sufficient number of dry, clean and
well fitting socks and change Of boots
or shoes: the establishment Of suitable
rooms as drying chambers and the pro.
hibition Of the wearing of rubber boots
for more than few hours.
The men are to be compelled to report
all foot ailments daily. to rub theil
feet with oil and indulge in active foot
exercises. Officers are directed to re.
| duce to the lowest minimum the necesA

MEN ON DRILL FIELD
DROP AS # DEAD
Demonstration at Meade, Part
of Actual Practice for
Service Abroad.

Correspondence Of The Star.
CAMP MEADE. Md. January 23.-Oyer
one of the many snow-covered drill fields
at this war mill. forty heavily clad lib
erty boys trotted in an irregular for1na-
tion. Suddenly, they were seen to reel
and fall prone on the ground. as II wiped
out by some mysterious agency.
Are they hurt or are they just trying
to catch their death Of cold" inquired a
visitor. startled by tho unexpected action
of the men.
Neither. This was apparent In few
seconds, when command rang out from
the distance. In twinkling ambulance
companies were on the scene. Stretcher
bearers were out in flash. and before
anybody could count the men lying on the
! field they had been whisked away.
Actual Practice Helpful.
The action was part Of the training
that the ambulance company men are now
undergoing to "oil up" their machinery
for service on the battle front. Actual
practice is the only method Of properly
fitting them for the task they will meet
on the other side of the Atlantic, when
their comrades in the other units OF the
Liberty Division engage the Huns at close
quarters.
The dead or wounded men," as the
soldiers on the ground arc technically
known, are part OF the ambulance units
of this cantonment All the men In
these organizations are selected SOL
diers chosen from the other parts Of
the Liberty Division.
Efforts are being made by the mill
tary authorities to standardfze the
physical requirements for selected men
who appear before the various local
boards Heretofore each examining
physician of those boards passed on the
physical qualities of the men without
any set standard. In order to system
atize this and prevent repetition of
errors in accepting men for service
medical officers have been assigned to
men for the Liberty Division are being
drawn.

signed to visit the boards in Baltimore;
