as the army win be below that figure
between the first release of men Of
the class Of 1920 and the first incor-
poration into the army OF men of the

of a saving in revenue to support Che
larger number of men later on.

CHlCAOGANS KICK
ON Telephone TOLLS
IN CHICAGO'S OUT.
LYING DISTRICTS

In the matter of telephone service
Chicago is very provincial.
Provincial with vengence.
The Chicago Telephone Company
serves a million of Chicago people
who do not live within the municipal
limits of Chicago.
They live in the provinces.
Forty thousand of them live in the
province of Oak Park, which is only
a third the distance from the main
Chicago telephone exchange that a
majority of the residents of Hyde Park
and Lake (within the city limits) are.
Forty thousand more live in the
province of Evanston.
$4,000 more live in provinces like
LAGRANGE, Riverside, Berwyn, Forest
Park, Melrose Park, haywood, Broad
view, Bellwood, Harvey, West Ham
mond, Chicago Heights, Chicago
Ridge, Oak Lawn, Evergreen Park,
Mount Greenwood, Homewood, River
Forest, Burr Oak, Riverdale, Cicero,
Winnetka, Wilmette, Kenilworth,
Hubbard Woods, Glen Ellyn and SO on
ad infnitum.
These provinces pay exchange rates
to the Chicago Telephone Company, in
addition to which they pay Toll.
Now 95 per cent of the calls sent
or received in the above named prov
inces and others not named are to or
from Chicago.
And the toll bills mount up as
everybody who has experienced them
knows.
Everything in the provinces Is
charged for-and such charges.
For instance, a party in Oak Park
desired to talk to Garfield 1888. By
mistake the party calling gave the
wrong exchange and was given Ked
zie 1888. The party at Kedzie 1888
promptly answered and told the party
calling that they had the wrong ex
change Only a minutes time con
sumed.
Then the right exchange-Garfeld
S283-was called for and the right
number, strange to say, came to the
phone at the first tap of the bell.
The Oak Park party received the
following toll bill on October /:
Kedzie 1888, toll SIS cents, war tax
10 cents.
Garfield 1888, toll 10 cents.
This is plain, truthful sample of the
kind of toll expenses Chicago people
