Two Telcnhone Directories Enough,
For All of France

Think of great European country,
with population of 40 100000 people,
in which the telephone is so poorly
developed that two directories will
contain the names of all the subscrib-
ers. Such is the state of affairs in
France, where the Government, which
onerates the service, issues one dircc-
tory for Paris ard one for the rest Of
The country. Both books together
contain fewer names than there are
IN the Chicago telephone directory.

Every business house in town should now begin to consider the manner and means of dec oration for the day. It would be wise for the merchants to look over their stock and see that there will be enough flags and bunting to supply the demand.

TO START WORK
 SCENIC ROAD

Stems & Carlson, contractors, of Spo- kane, began work last week on their contract to build road along the shore of Eyak Lake.
 The contract calls for the construc- tion of approximately four and one half miles of roadway, beginning where the present road ends and ex- tending to the Fish Hatchery.
 The main camp has been established at a point about a mile and half be- yond the end of the present road, and a second camp will be located a mile or two further on. When in full work ing order, the contractors expect to employ about seventy men. It is ex- pected that most of the work will be sub-let, and applications for station work should be made, after today, to the superintendent at camp No. 1. The work will be pushed as rapidly as pos sible, and there should be no unem- ployment this summer on the part of men capable of undertaking this class of work Enquiries by mail should be addressed to Stems & Carlson, Cor dova.
 The contractors have handled many large jobs in the States, and are fully competent to finish anything they un- dertake. MT. Richard Anderson, the superintendent, who has had wide experience in road building expresses himself as satisfied with the outlook and, given reasonably fine weather, an ticipats no difficulty in completing the contract within the allotted time.
 When completed, the road will fur nish the people of Cordova with a very beautiful scenic highway.
