TELEPHONE MANNERS.

Have you ever noticed the dis
courtesy of people over the tele-
phone? People who pride them
selves on always being polite to
those whom they meet face to face
do not hesitate to be rude to the
unseen person whom they meet on
the other side of the wire.
II the operator rings the wrong
number II Is not the fault of the
person who meekly answers the
summons. so why be- rude?
The person who shops over the
telephone, who wants immediate
delivery or theater tickets held be-
yond the hour prescribed in thea
ter rules---is he polite about it!
Invariably he hangs up the receiv-
or with bang and frequently while
the individual on the other end Is
courteously explaining why the
errand cannot be done as requested.
Because they are out of sight, few
hesitate to be rude to them. Society
drops Its acquired poilteness and
courtesy and appears as 1t really Is,
primitive and crude, to the stranger
who answers the telephones.

 Dolletta has proven one of the most attractive features of the carnival shows. She is S6 years of age. 2S inches in height. and tips the scales at 28 pounds. Dolletta is a. remark able little woman. She makes a high ly interesting talk to her visitors in her well-b bred, educated manner, and will have with her her two perfectly normal children, who, though born of midget parents. are of average height and weight. They are Lucille, aged 14, and Charles, aged 8. Beside their mother the two children loom up like young giants, and they show great deal of affection for their tiny mother. The children can scarcely live in the same room with their wee mother, for the furniture in Dolletta's tent is built to fit a midget. Dolletta rides to her show place in miniature carriage drawn by two tiny Shetland ponies. Neptune's Daughters will furnish another interesting feature of the car

There is new lumber yard at 16th Ave. and Harrison owned by Wm. F. Ohlrau who admits coming to this city two years ago with only $1.65 in pocket and now claims he can sign his name for $20,000. During his two years in this vicinity he has upheld union principles in a measure and through this has virtually accumulated what he has. He now takes stand that he does not want the support or assistance of the unions or union men. We would ask our friends and patrons to remember this and to pass up this lumber yard when they need any thing in this line.

BELGIUM HAS No
SERIOUS STRIKES
lRy Associated Press)


BRUSSELS, April 17.-Belglum
has made rapid progress toward IN
dustrial recovery since the armlstlce
largely owing to the fact that the
country has had no serious strikes,
says M. Jaspar, minister of economic
affairs. He estimates that the
nations industrial output has now at
tained perhaps 70 percent of it's pre-
war record and that it's mines are pro-
ducing as much coal as in the year
before the war.
about 70 percent of our material
which was taken out by the Germans
has been returned to u.s." added M.
,Jaspar. "The money taken by the
Germans from the Belgium treasury
has been returned but Belgium has
thus far received no indemnity from
Germany. At the beginning of the
armistice 100000 of our people were
without work. Our recovery has
been made in spite of the fact that
more than one-half of the Belgians
who had to flee before the Germans
are still in France unable to return
because they have no homes here
Belgian Villages destroyed in the
war are being rebuilt said M. Jaspar.
In the district of Ypres IS villages
have been restored to such an extent
that local administration has been
resumed. "If the United States
would do for Belgium what she has
Just done for Poland, establish a
credit for her, most of our problem
would be solved" declared the min
ister of economics.
