COMPANY
WILL. MAKE BIG
IMPROVEMENTS.
100000 Program Scheduled
For Maryland

Approximately s3,0OO,0O0 will be
spent in the immediate future in ex
tending telephone plant facilities and
improving the service in Maryland
This announcement by the Chesapeake
hnG Potomac Telephone Company, fol
lowing closely upon the establish
ment of new rates by the Public Serv'
ice Commission, indicates clearly the
steps the Company is taking to bring
the service up to the highest stand
ards of efficiency.
F. S. Whitman, division manager or
the c. & p, said that the Company
expects to spend $10,000,0O0 on Inn
provements in the next three years.
The new rates enable the Company
to go ahead with comprehensive
program, he said, and projects total
ing $3,000,000 have already been ap-
proved and operations started In many
cases. A good deal now depends on
the Company's ability to get the ma
terials needed. but every possible ef-
fort is being made to secure them.
Tho construction schedule Is a
lengthy one In Cumberland, the
growingSrequirements Of the city will
be met by extensive additions to the
underground and overhead cable sys-
TENS. Cumberland's population has
been jumping rapidly and It Is ex-
pected to double within the next four
years. To take care of the increased
demand for telephone service, the
Company's plant is now being en-
larged by pole line, 1920 feet OF
overhead cable and approximately
1900 feet OF underground cable.
Several other branch cable and pole
lines will be needed later.
In Hagerstown, increased facilities
will be provided by the installation
of new switchboard section and 800
additional subscriber lines, bringing
the total number of lines which can
be served up to $500. The present
method of handling toll calls will
be changed and improved, and audible
ringing apparatus will be installed.
In Montgomery County, repairs will
be made on the toll lines between
Washington and Frederick, Gathers
burg and Damascus and Gaithersburg
and Poolesville.
Some of the more important prof.
ects to be undertaken in and near
Baltimore are building and eQuipping
new central Office, equipping q
school for student operators, new
cables and extensions in various
parts of the city and its suburbs, and
the equipment of new central office
at st. Helena,
In addition to these, there are
scores of operations to be undertaken
in other parts of the State that are OF
lesser magnitude, but OF first impor
lance to the communities where the
improvements will be made.

"Hard" and Gsoft" News.
Japanese newspapers, according

Japanese newspapers, according to
Prof. F. L. Martin Of the University
Of Missouri's school of journalism, d.
vide their news into "hard" and "soft."
The hard news consists Of serious, i'm
portant events. The soft news includes
all sorts of "human interest" incidents.
What is called the third page" of the
soft news department consists of trivi-
al stories which would be called gossip
in this country. Here is a sample Of
"third page" soft news:
"Since Etsunaka, resident of Osa-
kusa, has separated from her master,
a coal dealer, she has lost a good op-
ponent for her noted powers Of quar-
reling. The neighbors are breathing
freely again at the prospect that they
need no longer hear embarrassing
quarrels which have made the neigh.
borhood famous. The reaction has
been so great that Etsunaka has been
downhearted. She says: I feel sick
now that have no one to quarrel
with Outlook.

services of cook while the school
board has paid for the equipment,
which includes a range and running
water. Each child pays cents for
lunch, which pays for the cost of ma
terials. The inauguration of the hot
lunch system was accomplished by the
bureau in just six weeks time.

POLES ARE RELUCTANT
TO ABANDON WARSAW

WARSAW. Aug. s.-Although the
blasts of battle can be heard from
the north. where decisive engage
ment is believed to be in progress,
the Polish cabinet still fingers in
Warsaw hoping that the tide will
turn. The ministers have decided to
stay until the last minute before
evacuating the capital
Troops and guns are moving across
the Vistula river and up to the front
in a never-ending stream. Powerful
motor cars bearing staff officers dash
to and from great headquarters.
dozen searchlights play against
the sky at night to protect the city
from raiding Russian airmen.
The Polish newspapers comment bit
terly upon the situation, saying:
I'VE are abandoned. Only England
and France can help u.s."
All Poland is awaiting expectantly
for word from England as to the atti-
tude taken by the British government
upon the question of active military
intervention.
The Polish cabinet is not yet GER
tain where the seat of government
will be established, II Warsaw Is
evacuated. A majority of the mem
bers favor Posen. Some OF the super
stitious ministers want to move the
government to Czestochova, the birth
place of the patron saint of Poland
who Is commonly supposed to come to
the aid OF the country in time of sore
distress.
Some OF the military experts be-
lieve that the Polish front north of
the city will .old and that the real
battle for the capital will be fought
to the east and southeast. There is a
powerful line OF defenses stretching
through Okunlev and Karezef, 1t
consists OF semiclrcle of forts
strongly re-enforced with trenches
and new barbed wire entanglements.
