THIS DOG ANSWERS
 MASTER OVER PHONE

Mountain Home, Dec. l5.-- Charles Cole, a farmer living near this place, calls his dog home over the phone when he wants to go hunting, if the dog happens to be around town. For the last month the canine has acquired the loafing habit, hanging around the telephone exchange. The other day Cole called up and asked if his dog was there, and asked the operator to send him home if he was. She tried to drive the dog away but he wouldn't leave. Finally she coaxed him to the board and held the receiver to his ear while his master whistled and called to him. Barking loudly the dog leap ed from the chair and bounded away. In about l5 minutes Cole called up and told the operator the dog had reached home. Now when Cole wants his dog all he has to do is to call the operator, she gets him to the phone, his master calls and away he goes.

 WAR VETERANS
Caraway to Insist That They, Be Given Preference for Postnasterships = Glen wood Case is Cited.

Washington, D. C., Dec. 15.-The practice of the administra ton in re- fusing to give preference to ex-ser- vice men in the appointment of post masters, so bitterly assailed in the House Tuesuay by Representative Wingo, will be taken to the floor of the Senate within the next few days. Senator Caraway of Arkansas so informed H. l.. Remmel, Repub- lican national committeeman from Arkansas, yesterday. MT. Caraway said iii was his belief that the post master general is violating the law when he fails to recommend the appointment of an ex-service man to a postmastership, if there were any ex-seryice men on the eligible list.
 Senator Caraway said that while he did not feel inclined to contest the postmaster appointments rec commended by the Arkansas Repub- licdn Committee, he would do so where ex-service men are ignored.
 Asked whether he would contest the appointment of Perry w. Hamp- ton, nominated for the postmaster ship at Glenwood, Ark, after Hamp- ton had first failed to pass the examination and then on regrad- ing of papers, had been given a passing grade by margin of two tenths of one per cent. Senator Caraway said he was going to find out by what process they change the rating of a successful candidate from 66 to TOP after the examna- tion has been held and the standing of applicants certified to the Post office Department.
 MT. Remmel in Washington.
 Fl. L. Remmel, Republican na- tional committeeman from Arkansas, announced yesterday that the name of R. B. Jordan would be resub- mitted to the Senate for the post mastership at Womble, Ark. The nomination was held up in the spe- cial session of Congress because of charges brought against Jordan that he had purchased his endorse meats for the position. MT, Remmel declared the charges were untrue and that he had satisfied Senator Caraway to this effect and that the senator, he said, had assured him he would not contest the appoint ment.
 MT. Remmel said the charges were brought as the result of a $7,O00 assessment levied against the Republican Committee of Arkansas to wipe out deficit of the Ma tional Committee incurred i'll the last campaign. Astchairman of the committee, he levied assessments or the various counties in Arkansas Assessment against Montgomery county of $100 was paid by Jordan Mr. Remmel said The present post master at Womble has held the position for 16 years. he said.

OPEN DOOR POLICY FOR
 POSTOFFICE;S.
Postmaster General Hays Attempting to Humanize Seyvice-Aim is Coop erafion With Public.
(By The United Press)

Washington, Dec. 15,--An open door policy for the post office.
 That's the latest order promul- gated from the headquarters of the postal system here by Postmaster General Will Hays.
 "An open door to the postmaster's office for public and employees is the way the postmaster general phrases it.
 His aim, he announces, is to bring close-operation between post master, staff, and the public. The door must swing outward as well as inward, too, he says.
 "The way to convince the public that I'm right in my premises is for the postTaster to get out and get in personal contact with the patrons of his office" the advice reads, showing them how they may inn proye their own sesvice by closer cooperation with the agencies of- fered by the post office and to re- ceiVe first hand any complaints they may have and attend to same promptly and satisfactorily"
 School houses in cities through out the country will probably be used extensively by the post office department this year in distributing the great volume of Christmas mail.
 Plans for carrying out this scheme, which was found very eff fective in one city where it was used last year, are now being worked out at the post office department here.l Postmasters are being requested to get in touch with school authori-, ties where the plan is deemed prac- ticable.
 The residential section of the cit ies. according to the scheme, will be laid out in units with the school as a center. The mail for these units will be sorted at the main office at night and carried on trucks of the main office to, the schools in the morning, whence it will be deliver ed by carriers on foot.
 This plan, which proved the clean est, fastest, and cheapest ever used il the office where it was tried out last year has several advantages, the post office department states.
 It is particularly advantageous in the colder regions where vehicles are detained by snow and delivery the cold as it permits short trips. It also permits better supervision of deliyerymen. many of whom at this season are new and unfamiliar with the city and waste time searching for locations. Another advantage is the economical one of saving ye- hicle hire.
 Character is the attribute Post master General Hays is now seek ing to build Up in the post offices of the country.
 'It is mine and hope it shall be the ambition of every postmaster and postal employee" he writes the postmasters, "to give post offices and postisl stations so much char acter that they will be the pride of the community in which they are located"
 Post offices, like people" he says, "are judged by first appear iances. A clean, orderly lobby com mands the respect of the public and lis indicative of the quality of ser Ivice rendered by that particular of |fice. The same psychology applies within the office Postmasters are, therefore, urged to give constant attention and care both to the- in- terior and exterior appearances of .their offices.o

AGREEMENT REACHED ON
 CAPITAL SHIPS
United States, Great Brit ain and Japan Said to Be in Accord-Details Not Completed.

Washington, Dec. 15.-The United States, Great Britain and Japan have agreed on the capital ship ra- tio of 5-5-3 proposed to the Wash ington conference in the American naval limitation program.
 This was assured last night when it was announced in an adthorita- tive quarter that good progress had been made in the naval nego- tiations being conducted by Secre- ltary Hughes, MT. Balfour and Baron kato
 Final details of the negotiations have not yet reached stage which would warrant an official announce ment of the agreement although the "big three'' of the conference were in consultation until nearly o'clock last night at the home of Secretary Hughes.
 The agreement on the naval ratio is declared in some quarters to in clude a modification which will per- init Japan to retain the dread nought Mutsu, although there were intimations last night that this is not positive and that Japan may not have insisted to the last upon this point, which was known to be ob jectionable@ to Secretary Hughes.
 To Limit Great Britain.
 The negotiations which are delay ing formal announcement of the agreement are said to concern Pa cific Qualifications based on insist ence by the United States and Japan that Great Britain agree to limit her Qualifications and naval bases in the Pacific maintaining the status quo in respect of defensive and az gressive naval stations.
 Great Britain is reported to have made the original suggestion that the United States agree to limit Pacific Qualifications as an induce ment to Japan to recede from her desire for a. larger naval rating. From this developed the general question of maintaining the fortifi- cation status quo not only by the United States and Japan but also by Great Britain.
 T,,;t tof nd To it is declared, required commit ment by Great Britain as both the Philippine and Formosa might be defenseless against the British naval bases and Qualifications at Hong Kong and Kowloon if positive as surance rescepting British intentions should not be given.
 It was indicated that distinct treaty would be drafted, in which the United States, Great Britain and Japan would participate, which would limit Qualifications in certain regions of the Pacific and on cer- tain islands or archipelaoges to those now in existence. Hawaii and Japan proper would not be included.
 France to Make Request.
 France, will ask for an allotment of 315,O00 tons of capital ships and proportionate percentages in small CT classes when the question of the French and Italian navies is taken up today or tomorrow by naval committee of 15. This was dis closed last night.

 hold.

RUSSIAN LABOR Is
BEING CONSIDERED

The subject Of securing Russian la
Dor for Fallon was introduced and
discussed at the meeting of the Cham
Der Of Commerce Monday night. 1t
was proposed to send an agent to
Nebraska, at the expense of the Cham
Der Of Commerce, who would induce
10 to IL Russian families to come to
Fallon for the purpose OF leasing land
and farming or for working in the beet
fields, says the Fallon Eagle.
1t was said by Mr.. Schaff, one OF
the agriculturists for the sugar COM
pany that these families would work
they all work. A family will take a
beet field of SO many acres and care
for it and tend it in first class shape
The women and all the children share
in the labor.
These people soon become Ameri
canized, Mr.. Schah said. They are in
dustrious, frugal and thrifty. They
will live in a shack the first two year:
| and as soon as they can afford better
they will build better homes.
1t was stated that the best way t.
get these people to come to Fallor
| would be to send an agent to talk Il
them personally and present the oppor
tunities Tallon offers. The opinion
prevailed that many or perhaps all thu
! Russians would require help in get
ting here; that they world require ad
vances for their living expenses unit
they got on their feet. 1t was sait
the sugar company would help to NEE
this expense.
1t is believed that if ten familie'
| can be secured this season that they
wilt be the means OF inducing other
to come later.

When we celebrate Easter do stop to think of
the meaning OF the day and the reason? To many oil us
1t IS religious festival commemoratng the Resurrec~
ton OF Christ But the celebration OF Easter thousands
OF years old when Christ born Indeed it was to that
celebration he when he betrayed and crucied
Easter the festival OF spring Nature after her long
winter sleep, is awakening The trees are beginning to
put forth leaves the erass even in our own desert
towns IS turning green and Ill nature coming life once
more Man. too after his hard winter feels the thrills of
life, and he is filled with the desire to throw off the
shackles OF indoor work get out and see nature in
its bloom. -
The prospector feels the call of the desert and he pre-
pairing his load for his little pack animals to start for the
green hills in search of hidden wealth
While not forgetting the sacred character OF the day
let us remember that God is the God of Nature and in
Nature do find the proof of that Overuing Spirit the
Creator.
