THE HUMAN SIDE OF A
TELEPHONE OPERATOR,

The personal or human element in
business relations is being carefully
considered nowadays, and as a result
"a better understanding is being arrived
at. To be perfectly human is some
thing broader and deeper than mere
courtesy; failing in this fundamental
there would be no cooperative sue.
cess between the employer and the
employe.
The public opinion concerning a
telephone operator is usually that she
is mechanical, although she is very
much like anyone else when in con-
tact with the rest of the human race.
The public seldom praises her regard
less Of the efficient service she is
rendering, but instead nag and growl
throughout the day, not realizing that
she is human.
The Telephone operator is an ar.
fist in her own right She is "weav-
er of speech" and sitting unseen, she
brings the people together for needed
communication. She is alert and ever
ready with swift and willing hands
to serve. With her expert ear she
can tell the disposition of the mood
of a subscriber from the tone OF voice.
How much brighter the day would be
if everyone would keep in mind when
using the telephone-remember the
piece Of humanity on the other end
who says Number Please?" When a
Considerate subscriber gives a word
Of commentator or praise and not
insults, how it reaches the heart of
an operator.
What does the operator think of the
public? Women are merciful lot,
operators are twice merciful. The
work usually holds their loyalty for
a number of years unless taken away
by some change of affairs, and in
many CAGES even matrimOny does not
end their telephone career.
s oil ct us all try and remember that
the telephone operator is human and
is due some consideration.

|. \. {. MAN MAKES
TIMELY SUGGESTION
TO THE FARMERS

D. c. Barton. represen tative Of
the International Harvester Company
is spending several days in this terri
tory from his New Orleans headquar-
tiers.
NJ. Barton, in a statement to the
farmers of this section, says:
Save the rice crop, NJ. Rice Farmer,
Do you know that all rice binders
available for distribution this season
have been sold?
This being the case and there is no
getting away from it, the only recourse
you have is togo out in the back field
and haul in lasts binder: all 1t needs
is repairing and a good oiling.
Make up list of repairs required,
then go to your dearer and get them.
If friend said, "how would you
like to make a couple Of hundred dol
lars to-day by investing $50" what
would you say?
You have the 5000 or $3.50 in an
old binder and can make it good by
investing about $4,000 in repairs.
Don't wait until the last minute and
expect service, get busy now.
The Rice belt journal. (Welsh, Calcasieu Parish, La.) 1900-19??, 1920-07-24
LOOK OVER YOUR
OLD BINDER NOW

Of. M. Milliken in Crowley SignaD
Mr. Rice Farmer:
Have you looked over that binder
you left in that back field last fall
when you finished cutting rice?
If not you had better haul it up to
the barn, get it under the shade of a
tree and see just what repairs it will
need. Now you know it will need new
JCanvasses all around but there were
some pieces broken last year that you
tied up with wire till you finished
that crop, and now is good time to
jack it up and clean out all the oil
holes so the parts will be fabricated for
don't you remember how hard it was
pulling the asst two weeks, just because
you were to busy to clean out the oil
cups so as to let the oil hit all parts.
Now seriously get at that binder
and go over it carefully and get 1t in
running order before you are ready to
go into the field. "You intend to get
new machine this year and not fool
with the old one." Are you? have
my doubts for two reasons: The banks
advancing you are going to ask you II
you really need new one and they are
going to insist you fix up the old one
| If it is fixable and we may not be able
to get all the new binders we need OF
think we need.
If we will just take care of the bin
ders from the time they are new We
can easily prolong the life of then
three years, and lots of binders are
are condemned to the scrap pile when
they have at least one or two years
more work in them with just some re
pairs. Some one will have to use some
old machines and 1t may be you so gel
lit ready now. If the repairs cost$5o
and you can get it to do the work yor
will be saving $225.00 and will save
the bankers from having the pleasure
of turning you down.
There is lot more | could tell you
about this binder business, but at
least hope | have you thinking.

IN MoRIAM.

Sunday, July 18th, 1920, at 1880 p,
M. Mrs. Rebecca Alice Carr of blessed
memory died at her home in Welsh,
after many months of illness. She
was born in 1849 to H. o. and Eliza
beth Syfert, in Allen County, Ohio
Her marriage to o. S. Carr, deceased,
January oath, 1920, occurred in 1867 in
Ohio, when she was Is years of age.
In 1868 she and her husband moved
to Shelby County, ILL.,, and lived there
until 1898, when they moved to Welsh,
Louisiana. To this union were born
eleven children, all living but two
sons who died in infancy. Twenty-Five
grandchildren and two great grand
children also survive.
The nine children surviving are as
follows: Mrs. A. C. Shipman, Ged,
La, Mrs. Laura Kooken, Miami, Ariz.,
Mrs. VIM. Fear, Welsh, La, Mrs. M. E.

Houston, Texas, Miss Francis Carr,
Welsh, La, J. s. Carr, Welsh, La, G..
R. Carr, Welsh, La, j. w, Carr, Welsh,

Owing to the fact that Mrs. Cora
Mathes, one of the d aughters, and
her husband were up north at the
time of her mothers death, the funer-
al was delayed until Wednesday, the
21st, at 10000 o'clock a. m., in order
that Mrs. Mathes might attend The
service was held at the home and was
conducted by Rev. Ira L. Jordan, pas.
tor of the Welsh Baptist cuhrch. Al

| in Oaklawn cemetery.
The home which has been bereft
of father and mother was often the
center for young people, where many
a happy and joyous occasion took
place. Mother Carr possessed strik-
ing reserved nature, but notwithstand-
| ing this she dominated an ever and
increasing interest both in her home
and children, and the church of which
she was a loyal and devoted member
the Christian church. In the II years
she lived, about so of them were dedi-
Gated to the Master and His service.
The following poem was found in
her own Bible by her children after
her death, the sentiment Of which
must have been the passion of her
heart to adopt and live by:
CLOSING THE DOOR"

And hold up nay hands and reach them

And sing aloud and run lightly by;
He will never follow song.
