Hazel sat up, wide awake, on the in
slant. There was not the slightest
sound She had been deep in sleep.
Nevertheless she felt, rather than
knew, that some one was in the living
room. Perhaps the sound of the door
opening had filtered through her slum-
Der. She hesitated an instant, not
through fear, because in the months of
living alone fear had utterly forsaken
her; but hope had leaped so often,
only to fall %sickeningly, that she was
half persuaded it must be q dream.
Still the impression strengthened. She
slipped out Of bed. The door of the
bedroom stood Slightly ajar. =
Bill stood before the fireplace, his
shaggy fur cap pushed far back on his
head, his gauntlets swinging from the
cord about his neck. She had left a
great bed Of Goals on the hearth, and
the glow shone redly on his frost-scab-
bed face. But the marks Of bitter trail
bucking, the marks Of frostbite, the
stubby beard, the tiny icicles that still

traces of hardship tugged at her heart
they were forgotten when she saw the
expression that overshadowed his face.
Wonder and unbelief and longing were
all mirrored there. She took q shy
step forward to see what riveted his
gaze. And despite the choking SEN
sation in her throat she smiled-for
she had taken off her little, beaded
moccasins and left them lying on the
bearskin before the fire, and he was
staring down at them like a man fresh
wakened from q dream, unbelieving
and bewildered.
With that she opened the door and
ran to him. He started, as if she had
been a ghost. Then he opened his arms
and drew her close to him.
SPILL, Bill, what made you so long?"
she whispered. II guess it served me
right, but it seemed a never-ending
time"
"What made me so long?" he
echoed, bending his rough cheek down
against the warm slnoothness of hers.
Lord, I didn't know you wanted me.
I amt no telepathist, hon. You never
peeped one little word since I left.
How long you been here?"
"Since last September" She smiled
up at him. Didn't Courvoiseur's man
deliver a message from me to the
mine? Didn't you come in answer to
my noteT'

September and October trooped
past, and as they marched the willow
thickets and poplar groves grew yell
low and brown, and carpeted the floor
of the woods with fallen leaves. Shrub
and tree barred gaunt limbs to every
autumn wind. Only the spruce and
pine stood forth In their year-round
habiliments Of green. The days short
ened steadily. The nights grew long,
and bitter with frost. Snow fell, blank
citing softly the dead leaves. Old Win
ter cracked his whip masterfully over
all the North.

often while she worked, Hazel's eyes

down again, and sometimes press her

and seated herself in the big chair.
She had expected to be lonely, very
lonely. But she was not. Perhaps
that would come later. For the pres
ent it seemed as if she had reached
the end of something, as if she were
very tired, and had gratefully come to
a welcome resting place. She turned
her gaze out the open door where the
forest fell away in vast un<lulations
to q range Of snow-capped mountains
purple in the autumn haze, and a verse
that Bill had nee quoted came back
to her:
Oh, to feel the wind grow strong
Where the trail leaps down.

And wisdom of the town..
She blinked. The towu-it seemed
to have grown remote, a fantasy in
which she had played a puppet part.
But she was home again. If only the
gladness of it endured strong enough
to carry her through whatever black
days might come to her there alone.
She would gladly have cooked her
supper in the kitchen fireplace, and
laid down to sleep under her own roof.
1t seemed the natural thing to do. But
she had not expected to find the cabin
liyably arranged, and she had prom

statement follows:

Impressions OF A Visitor
OF The Presbyterian Church

That the auditorium is most beau
tiful, harmonious and restful.
That the organ is handsome and
perfectly tuned. That the organist
shows talent and pride in her work,
by the excellent music furnished
each Sunday. That the choir would
be credit to city church. That
its accomplished members render
special music at each service: an
thems, quartettes, and solos. That
last Sunday morning, solo number
was given by one of the youngest
men in the church. That he has a
beautiful voice.
That the splendid sermon of the
pastor, the Rev. w. w. Astles, show
profound study and application.
The impression that doomed big and
loud, was--why will members of the
Presbyterian church absent themsel.
YES from the church services! And
why will they deprive themselves Of
the opportunity to imbibe instructive
and spiritual food for thought
That surely a pastor who deliver:
such interesting and helpful address
ses, deserves to have every member
present.
That those not present are the los
ers.

THE NEW PHONE RATE

Of SUDDEN there came the an
nouncement last week of an increase
in rates to telephone subscribers in
the city of Paris. Residence phones
increase from $1.65 to So month;
and, business phones from $2.75 to
$3.50 a month.
The telephone company, under
government operation, has placed at
the disposal of the, editors through
out the country, (the increase being
general all over the nation,) a II
page typewriter analysis of the
necessity for the increased rate.
Boiled down it means that there is
not now enough revenue to pay the
expenses and enable the employees Of
the service to receive proper COM
pensation. 1t is shown that read
justment of the rate structure is
necessary on account of the changed
commercial conditions of today. 1t
is outlined that the rates existing be-
fore the increase were based on con-
ditions when bacon cost IL cents a
pound, shoes sold for 81 pair,
clothes for SIS suit, and cotton
brought 8 and 10 cents in the lint.
We do not doubt these facts and
conditions, and consequently feel
that the telephone service is justly
entitled to increase its rates, provid-
ing, ETC., etc.
Locally the telephone company has
not shown any progress above the
time when bacon sold for II cents a
pound and shoes for $4 a pair, etc.
We still have the same old 'crank-
ing" system, and practically the same
old service that is consequent upon
the maintenance of such an out-of-
date and out-of-place mechanical
layout as exists in Paris.
For local maintenance there has
been an increase in the cost of sup
plies, of course, but with proper and
permanent structures and facilities
the cost of maintenance could be

AS TO THOSE HELMETS.

On display in one of the show win
dows of local store is lot Of Ger
man de luxe helmets, about which
there is a bit of actual history in
connection with the former Kaiser's
nightmare.
1t seems Wilhelm believed he was
going TO win the world war. He was
so sure of it that he caused to be
made and stored at Coblenz several
hundred thousand helmets. They
were not of the common iron sort.
They were made of finished stee:,
that would give back the suns rays
as would a mirror. They were dec
Grated works of art.
In his dream that Kaiser saw vic
tory for the Hun hordes. He saw
his elder son, the Crown Prince, az
the head of the victorious German
army, entering the gates of Paris,
while all the world bowed the knee
to the House of Hohenzollern.
But these helmets were never used
for the purpose they were intended
for Mr.. Common American had q
dream too. He dreamed of the
world as a decent place to live m
and he knew that this could not be
until Militaristic Germanism had
been stamped out
| To make his dream come true Mr.
Common American dug deep in his
pockets He paid taxes willingly and
bought Liberty Bonds and War Saw
ings Stamps freely. The money
thus produced, amounting to many
billions of dollars, organized an army
the like of>which the world had new
err seen, and equipped it in manner
that was revelation to the Germans
who fancied they had the last wore
in military machinery. More money
was needed to train this army and
transport it to France. More mon
ey was needed to ration and clothe
it, and buy munitions. Mr.. Common
American produced all this money
and the army produced the result.
The government still needs money
to pay these bills and restore pre-
war conditions. But there are nj
FURNISHED helmets to pay for, nor. nc
costly dreams of an obsessed, power
crazed monach to prove burden.
The billions of common Americans
The Parisian. (Paris, Tenn.) 1907-1962, 1919-05-09

reduced to an infinitesimal figure.
The increased cost of extension has
no bearing on the rates for service;
that is chargeable to capital stock.
Neither should the cost of modern
facilities be taxed upon the subscrib-
ers. That is chargeable to additions
and betterments account.
The telephone company certainly
must realize that the present me-
chanical layout in Paris is not ade-
quate; that it is not in keeping with
the volume of business passing thro'
the exchange; and, that it is next to
impossible to perfect sucE existing
mechanical equipment so there will
be no delay in taking down connec-
tions, etc.
Speaking from the results of Q
trief survey of the feelings of the
people, locally, we develop that there
will be no complaint, however, be
cause of the increased service rates
if the telephone company will make
good it's word as to increasing the
pay of employees, especially the tel
ephone operators so the local man
agement can secure and retain thu
services of competent operators
And, providing the telephone com
pany will back such efficiency in OPP
orators with an adequate mechani
cal system, doing away with tn
back-woods "cranking system" an
the consequent delay in taking dow
connections, etc, etc, etc, etc.
