Our Effort to Meet Your Needs

100000 f. Insulated Station Wire.
100000 Conductor feet of Cable.
IA Switchboard Positions.
$3.50 Subscribers Instruments.
$500 Desk Stands.
Fifty per cent of this was ordered prior to
January, 1920.
Forty per cent was ordered since January
l, 1920; and
Ten per cent remains to be ordered.
Only thirty-fve per cent of the material
ordered has been received
To place orders now for the remaining ten
per cent would only add to the manufacture
ing congestion.
Vi this 1920 construction program, plant
costing $l2000000 has been completed,
plant amounting to $l23,000.00 is in prog
reSS, leaving construction amounting to
SlO6,3OO.O0 not begun for lack of material.
To complete this 1920 construction pro-
gram will cost $400,00000 due to increas-
ing costs of labor and material since the work
was authorized.
The Company has made, and Will make,
every possible effort to obtain this much
needed material, placing orders wherever de-
iiveries are promised; even going to the state
of Washington for crossams.
From 1915 to 1918, both inclusive, the
Company's total construction program for the
states of Georgia, North and South Carolina,
Alabama and Florida, averaged $780,
1880 per year.
The construction authorized for Florida
alone during 1920, amounts to 1851 10000
and will now cost $400,000.00.
This shows the unprecedented increase IN
demand for service, and the complete ex-
haustion of all surplus facilities.
Since August lst. 1919, when the property
was returned to its owners, a period of ten
months, the Company has constructed plant
additions costing 5000, 1000; installed
81 1888 telephones, discontinued 24,058 teIe-
phones, making net gain of 1890 teIe-
phones.
Flonda's share of this work was 6,234
telephones installed. and 4,429 telephones
making net gain Of 2,8O5
telephones.
This record of accomplishment is not
equaled by that during any prior period of
twelve months In its history.
Do these facts entitle the Company to your
support? If they do, your interest demands
that you let it be known.
Now we are held up for lack of material
and equipment. Until material long since or
dered is supplied, we cannot go forward

Clean Business,

Better than big business is clean
business.
A clean profit is one that has also
made a profit for the other fellow.
Any gain that arises from another's
loss is dirty.
A man that makes habit, every
deal he goes into, of asking himself,
what is there in it for the other
fellow? and who refuses to enter
into any transaction where his own
gain will mean disaster to someone
else, cannot go far wrong.
The only really charitable dollar is
the clean dollar.

Defining Happiness,

Nothing is more talked about than
happiness.
But what is it?
Here's the answer:
Happiness is great love and much
service.
The great mass of men are reason
ably happy because they are in love
and at work.
They complain of their work. Even
call labor curse. They dream of a
life of idleness and self indulgence,
and imagine that is heaven. 1t is not.
1t is hell. This world was made for
lovers and servants.
If your heart is full of love, and
your hands full of service, nothing
need bother you.
You have solved the riddle of exist
ence.

THINGS TO THINK ABOUT.
What Life Is.

Life is hard because it is something
to do, not something to learn.
Life is not problem, it is a task.
We don't have to understand it, we
have to live it.
For life is an art, not a science. 1t
is trade, not puzzle. You learn
to live as you would learn to lay brick
or carve statues or manage a farm.

L. $. SUPREME COURT ACTS
Decision Rendered by Court Hold the
Prohibition Amendment and Vol
stead Act as Being Constitutional.

/ Washington. June THE Supreme
Court today ruled that the prohibition
/. amendment 10 the Federal Constitu-
tion and the Yolstead act enforcing IL
are valid
The decision was made in seven
eases, including those Of the states OF
Rhode Island and New Jersey. and
answers arguments raised against
prohibition from every conceivable
angle.
The ruling means that the Volstead
act must be enforced in every state.
The sale Of beverages containing more
than one-half of per cent Of alcohol
will not be permitted. regardless Of
state laws increasing the percentage
or whether a state legislature has rati-
fled the amendment. State laws like
those enacted in New York, New Jer-
sey, Wisconsin and Rhode Island per-
mitting light beer and wines, are null
lifted.
The decision ends hope that prohi-
bition might be overthrown in the
courts. The only way in which the
Eighteenth Amendment may be re-
pealed lies in action by three-foulths
of the st: ties, the same proportion by
which the amendment was adopted.
Congress Could Become Liberal
A modification of prohibition is
possible, however. through Congress
sional action. Wet forces now are
expected to concentrate in this direc
ton. Congress could increase the
legal alcoholic percentage of bever-
ages to make it higher than one-half
Of l per cent, stipulated in the Vol
stead act.
Where Federal and state laws con-
flict the Federal law is supreme and
applies to the liquor traffic within a
state and between states, the court
decided. The court held that Concur
rent power" Of enforcement, as set
forth in the amendment, does not
mean joint power, nor that the power
to enforce is divided between Congress
and the states, or that state sanction
is required. On this point Justices
McKenna and Clarke dissented, al
though they supported their col
leagues in the view that the amend
ment itself is constitutional.
Referendums Not Necessary
The first part of the amendment
the one embodying prohibition the
court held to be universally applicable.
The second pert, providing for en-
forcement by concurrent power" It
was decided, does not mean that Con-
gress or the states may defeat or
.hwart prohibition, but only that they
may enforce il by appropriate means.
The power to regulate liquor is held

BENNINGTON COUNTY
YOUNG PEOPLES UNION

The hard, steady rain last Saturday
did not prevent the gathering al
Pownal of large number of dele
gates from the young peoples soci-
cites Of Bennington county. In fact
the Pownal convention was one of the
largest and most enthusiastic the
county union has held in the last is
years.
For 80 years the union has been
known as the Bennington County
Christian Endeavor Union. At Pow
nal is was voted to chage the name to
Bennington County Young Peoples
Union" as the strength Of the unisn is
now almost equally divided among the
b. Y. p. u, the Epworth League, and
the Y. p. S. c. Z.
With a few changes the program
was carried out as printed. Rev. G.
w. May of Pownal conducted the Ep-
worth League conference in the alb
sence Of Rev. G. f. Cady. The Ben

afternoon praise service as the Peru
Y. p. S. C. f. were prevented from
coming by the storm.
The conference hour was big sue
cess, and each Of these institutes were
well attended. The mission sketch,
The Hanging Of the Sign" was very
interesting. This was given BY the Y.
p S. c. Z. Of the Second Congrega-
tional Church Of Bennington.
The addresses. by Rev. J. S Brown
of Manchester Center, by Prin. d. w.
Mcclelland Of Bennington High School
and b. Rev. Daniel II. Clare, d. d. Of
North Adams, were very inspiring.

COUNTY RED CROSS
NURSE ESTABLISHED
Miss Christine Benedict Has Taken up
Her Duties with Bennington County
Chapter


Miss Christine Benedict, the Red
Cross nurse, who has been assigned
to Bennington county, is already es-
tablished at the Office Of the county
Red Cross chapter in Bennington and
has already taken up her work. IL is
expected that there will be more calls
for her services in the smaller towns
of the county and that the larger por-
ton of her time will be passed in com
munities outside Of Bennington viii
lage. 49,
Miss Benedict's home is at Rosclle,
N. j. She has had varied and exten-
sive experience to fit her for the work
she is undertaking in Bennington
county. For some time she was dis
trict nurse in the vicinity of New
York. Later she went to the Philip
pine Islands and was connected with a
training school for nurses at Iloilo.
She was in America when war was de-
clared with Germany and at once went
into Red Cross work. From an army
hospital in Washington she was trans
ferred TO Camp Mills and from Camp
Mills she went overseas. Returning
from France she went to South Caro-
lima where she was engaged in Red
Cross work at the time arrangements
were made for her to become the Ben
nington county nurse.
In securing nurse with Miss Bene-
diets varied experience the officers Of
the county chapter feel that they have
been unusually fortunate. Much OF
her work will be Of an advisory nature
and should be beneficial in many ways.

sIrsPICIOUs sOLICITUDE

The solicitude Of the allies for the
welfare Of Armenia is indeed touching
and no doubt we should feel highly
honored al being requested TO support
and defend those poor people in the
future. But the benevolence Of the
allies would be more convincing did
they evince as keen a desire to accept
a mandate for devastated Armenia,
surrounded by enemies, as they did
for the marvelously rich African col
onies Of Germany, surrounded as they
are By friendly peoples and govern
rnenis.
