TELEPHONE SUBSCRIBERS
RECEIVE RADIOPHONE
MARKET REPORTS.

Something new in the way of tele-
phone service is the receipt of daily
market news and quotations by radio
phone and their immediate dispatcn
by wire telephone to the 5000 sub
scribers of an Illinois rural telephone
company.
In a letter to the Bureau of Mar
kets and Crop Estimates, United
States Department of Agriculture, the
telephone company says that the bu-
reau's market reports relayed by the
st. Louis University by radiophone
are heard distinctly, and that 1T has
opened a special radio office to handle
the work of receiving and sending the
messages to it's subscribers. The serv-
ice has been widely advertised in the
local newspapers, and not only the
farmers and shipping associations but
commercial business men as well are
keenly interested in it.
The company's radiophone receiving
office is 50 miles from st. Louis. It's
5000 or more subscribers are located
in 10 towns. The plan is that at GER
tain hours each day the subscribers
simply slisten in" on the wire as the
market reports are read over the
telephone. 1t is also proposed by the
company to install radiophone trans
mitting set to relay the reports by
radiophone to smaller receiving sta
tions in the surrounding territory.
An Illinois bank located 55 miles
from st. Louis has also informed the
bureau that it is receiving the mar
ket and weather news regularly by
radiophone. The st. Louis University
saws that many individuals, banks,
and other commercial and agricultural
agencies are receiving the radio
phone market reports.

SITY LYCEUM takes pleasure in aN
nouncing that the course for this ses-

defIul organization can give It's du-
dience.

humorist Beilharz can take the
seriousness out of anything, and
promises to give Us an evenig Of rich
entertainment.

the sale of tickets.

.neighbors to back us up, and at the
