I was very lonesome after my nice
brother-in-law had returned to the
army aviation field. I sent Baby BaDs
back home with her nurse, Mrs
Cbapin. Probably I ought to have
gone with them, but in spite OF my
self I stuck around that wretched
border town waiting for my soa
to come back. just as jim Jr' d
p~rophesied that I would do.
Would l have stayed In that n
some, uncomfortable place had Bob
been off on ordinary business? Ger
tainly not. l simply couldn't go nortil
and leave the other woman and my
husband In the same vicinity!
When I put the case plainly TO
myself It seemed so absurd! I hated
myself for being tangled up IN a
vulgar sex triangle. I had never
dreamed that I, the bride of Bob
Lorimer, could possibly have to live
through an experience of that KIND.
Bob had loved me because l was IN
tellectual and educated, he said. AS
a girl, I had been what is usually
described as spiritual" And BOD
had pretended to adore that In me.
After I was married l was shocked
to find myself falling from nv plane
of high living and high think Ana
my own husband was pushing me
down. Through him 1t was that a

could touch my personal happiness!
1t was unthinkable! 1t was the
supreme insult of my life!
Undoubtedly the girl was a moron
"a beautiful adult female with the
mind of a girl of twelve years. She
and I were as different as darkness
and daylight. She was ignorant and
passionate, 1 was educated n re-
served. I compared myself to her
with SNUG satisfaction. Doubtless
every jealous wife has done the same
thing!
The worst OF my hurts was not
that which touched my personal
pride. 1t was Bob's fall from his own
high plane which made me weep
most bitterly. I had always held my
Bob to be quite superior to the ordi-
I nary vulgar pulls of sex. My worst
horror was the possibility that the
girl might add my husband to hel
conquests, and drag him down! Ever

In his statement issued during the
afternoon telling why the strike seemed
unavoidable General Manager Driver
said:
NO change has taken place IN the
telephone situation as regards the
wage adjustment procedure which the
Telephone Operators union has hrmiy
refused to adopt as solution OF the
present difficulty. That method of pro-
cedure, as established by the govern
ment. is SO easy of adoption and prom.
ises SO we'll that it seemed solution or
the entire difficulty. The strike appears
10 be unavoidable.
s'The apparent determination of the
union is shown in statement which
appears to have been authorized, ana Is
among the items on the subject IN the
Boston Herald on the morning OF April
IA:
| - Miss O'Connor made it plain that
even if Mr.. Driver was now willing to
recommend the desired new wage
] schedule of the operators the s,o0o
girls involved in the controversy would
refuse TO stay the strike and. go through
! the Burleson procedure of submitting
/ the schedule first to Mr.. Driver, then
to the operating board in New YORK,
/ then to the wire control board IN Wash
1 ington and, last of all to Mr. Burleson,
on whose recommendation the entire
1 scale depends.
1.-THE representatives of the union
1 operators have maintained at all times
H that their maximum demands must be
granted. Now, from the above state
ment, it appears that unless these max
/ imum demands are granted by the

Il discussion. the Inconvenience and dan

affect the local news gathering, but it
necessitates the sending of the Asso-
eiated Press news by telegraph
In anticipation of the strike some
persons had foresight enough last
night to do at that time whatever tel
ephoning they had planned for today.
One local business man took a rather
unusual view of the situation this
morning. II hope the operators will

to everything their neighbors say over

sibly they will turn their attention tc

The first appearance of the telephone
in Brattleboro was on the evening OF
Thursday Oct IS, 1877. The incident
was recorded in a news item as follows

that time change was made to a COM
mon battery system, which did away
with the necessity of ringing the bell
by turning crank TO call the opera
tors attention.
At that time there were s62 subscrib-
ers, an increase of nearly 800 in a year.
Since then three new operators posi-
tions have been added to the switch
board and one position has been
changed to form combination of toll
and local equipment.
On March ] of this year there were
1877 subscribers in Brattleboro. this
being the largest number connected
with any exchange in Vermont in pro-
portion to the population of the terri

other Vermont exchanges on March /

mission appointed to investigate wag-
es paid to and working conditions of
telephone and telegraph employees and
report as to what Improvement, if any,
should be made, and the feasibility of
standardizing the same. The chairman
of this commission accepted the sched-
ules with the full knowledge that they
came TO his commission upon the deela-
ration of the companies that they had
no power, to act in the matter. To this
date no action has been taken by the
commission upon these schedules, save
to retain them in its archives, with all
least tacit claim of jurisdiction.
1.-The wire control board, now so
widely advertised as the court of last
appeal was then in existence, although
when the union committees called upon
the postoffiee officials for information
as to where wage schedules should be
placed, they were never referred to the
wire control board. The only official
act of this board, of which have any
knowledge, and Isspent three months in
Washington buffeted from one commit
tee to another, was an act OF broken
faith with the MinneapolisSt. Paul tel
ephone workers The telephone workers
organizations of those cities petitloned
the wire control board for an increase
in wages which the company itself pub
liely declared to be inadequate. Their
communication was never acted upon
by the wire control board, save to turn
it over to the Ryan commission, which
commission is now said to have been
absolutely without power in such mat
tiers.
:" A strike occurred in Minneapolis
| st. Paul as direct result of this man
ipulation. In my resignation from the

PAST middle life has had son or some
1ther relative in the war and desires
that what such have done shall be
concentrated by a suitable memorial.
Similar feelings are entertained by
those who are younger All those and
the men who themselves have served
viii contribute generously. Among the
public the feeling is strong that a SOL
diers and sailors memorial worthy of
our great city should be constructed.
ION the other hand, experience fol-
lowing the civil war reminds us that
soldiers and sailors dwindles as time
passes, and after a few years, perhaps,
dies out. AS those who were witnesses
Of this war pass on, the interest Of
the succeeding generation will be
merely historical. History does not
make men liberal with their money;
it takes sentiment to unloose purse
strings. l believe and l think my
conviction is shared generally by my
fellow citizens that a soldiers and
sailors memorial should be more than
"A structure which is simply agreeable
to the eyes.
at should be SO designed and con-
structed that it may be of permanent
benefit to the community. So wide
spread is this feeling that more than
one hundred cities have decided that
the most fitting testimonial to the
