ties he proved to be q competent,
painstaking and conscientious pub
lie official. :.
IN placing Mr.. Montgomery's
name before the Lincoln county vo-
tiers 1t was not done by Mr.. Mont
gomery personally for in fact Mr..
Montgomery is now serving in war
duties In the z. M. G. A. at Grier,
Germany.
Mr.. Montgomery's history in Lin-
coin county Is too well known to
need a lengthy repetition. While
being an extensive farmer he served
as member Of the legislature in
1904yO6, his term as sheriff was
from 1912 to 1915. His present
plans are that he will, return about
the first Of May when he will take
up an active canvass for the sheriff's
Office.
Consider we'll the record Mr.
Montgomery has made and give him
whatever measure Of support you
deem right and proper.

FARM AND GARDEN WORK.
Much Work Being Done to Overcome
Lateness Caused by Rain :
and Cold.

Spring gardening and farming, af-
ter innumerable delays caused by
rains and continued wet ground, was
begun in this county last week.
Much of the small per centage of
ground that had been broken and
was nearly ready for planting before
the last rains will again have to be
worked over, owing to the beating
rains. But all of these matters are
being attended to by gardeners and
farmers who are anxious to over
come the delay in the beginning Of
their summers work.
Within the next week. If there is
q cessation of the rains for that
length Of time, nearly all the gar
dens in this county will be we'll un-
der way and with continued warm
weather. which seems likely, it will
be but short time until home gar
deners viii have plentiful supply
Of fresh, homegrown vegetables.

NEW TELEPHONE REGULATIONS.
Congestion Of Business Requires
Stop Order on Information Of
Certain Kinds.

Effective April 1st the Cumber-
land Company announces that it will
discontinue the practice of permit
ting its operators to answer requests
for the time of day. the location of
fires and other information which is
not necessary part of telephone
service. This step is taken, it is
stated. in an effort to improve the
service by relieving the lines and
the operators Of burden which in
terferes seriously with important
service to the community.
Telephone officials explain that
the number of calls now handled by
the local system is as great as dur
ing the busy times of actual hostili->
ties and the congestion has been in
creased by calls which do not serve
Ia useful purpose. In normal times
this special service did not interfere
with the service of subscribers and
the accommodation was cheerfully'
rendered.
II q stated that If the time dsxot-.
ed by the operators to- handling re-
quests for the time Of day, the loca-
tion Of fires and other similar calls
could be devoted to handling the ur-
gent calls of subscribers there would
be fewer delays and a greater oppor-
tunity for improving the service.
The telephone company is request
ing the cooperation of its subscrib-
ers in this matter. A similar regu-
lation is in force in practically all
the large cities and it was postpon-
ed here in the belief that it might
be possible to secure additional
equipment and an enlarged operat-
ing force sufficient to make it unnec-
essary to eliminate this class of SER
vice. 1t appears. however, that there
is no hope for an early relief in this
direction and telephone subscribers
are being requested to refrain from
asking operators for the time OF day
and for other Information not an es-
sential part of telephone service,
