The Pneumonia Month

March is a typical pneumonia month
and usually gives high rate of NOR
atty for the disease. After a long
and hard winter, the system loses
much of its resistance and people grow
careless. When every cold, no matter
how slight, is given prompt and in
telligent attention, there is much less
danger of pneumonia. 1t should be
borne in mind that pneumonia is a
germ disease and breeds in the throat.
Chamberlain Cough Remedy is an
expectorant and cleans out the germ
ladened mucus and not only cures a
cold but prevents its resulting in pneu-
monia. II is pleasant to take. Chill
dren take it willingly.

BAN ON phone
TRILLING OF RS
Bell Co. Finds Operators
Exaggerated Habit in
Calling Back
COLORATURA TONES
ARE HEARD NO MORE

Subscribers and patrons of the To-
cal telephone service probably have
noted the absence on the part of the
operators OF the trilling OF "Rs" in
the numbers and words when re-
peating phone numbers called for.
This IS due to action of the officials
who found the tendency of the ma
jority of the operators was to en-
phasie the trilling enunciation. While
this method was never taught by the
telephone companies, Il was at one
time encouraged, as they considered
It a clever way Of e-pronouncing the
number called by patrons. 1t was
found by the officials that the larger
number of operators exaggerated
this habit. and II was ordered dis
continued
r. p Bardo, general manager of
the Bell Telephone Company's Della
ware District, said this morning that
the practice of trilling the "Rs" by
the operators had been discouraged
in the local exchange for more than
year and a half.
However, the coloratura school OF
telephone operators is passing. In the
Bell Telephone Company's building
on Arch street at Seventeenth in
Philadelphia there is training
school for operators, where more
than 100 future "Centrals" attend
school each day. They are taught
many things. One OF the things they
are warned not to do is to trill
their RS.
Stress on the proper enunciation
Of RS and e's Is emphasized with a
slight prolongation and just a little !
roll to the r. But never a coloratura |
trill. as the course does not include !
singing. The instructors ask their |
pupils to guard against adding an |
extra syllable to numerals as hap !
pens when they split an unoffending !
nine into a "nyun" or a demure two
into a ''toower"
II, as far as telephone service Is
concerned was the invention pure
and simple of the girl at the SWITCH
board. Besides Introducing voice
culture into a songless profession,
the trilled numbers are conducive
to the wasting Of the companys
time.

COUNCILMAN ASKS
OFFICIALS TO PROBE

Residents in the vicinity of Fifth
and Harrison streets appealed again
today to Councilman Mulvena for
relief from fumes arising from the
plant of the Wilmington Ice Com
pany at 403 Harrison street. While
the plant was in operation at noon.
Councilman Mulvena stated that he
would endeavor TO have DR.. C. NJ
Handy president of the Board OF
Health. visit the locality sometime
today to make a personal investi-
cation.
The plant which had been closed
down for nearly a week while the
owners made some changes to try to
overcome the objections. as they had
promised TO do, was started up late
yesterday afternoon. The engine
was run but a short time. however
This morning when the plant start
ed operations the residents complain
ed of fumes OF oil and vibration OF
the engine annoying them The
vibration of the engine was so pro-
nounced. It was complained, that
Mrs. Allan Cunningham. OF 1902
West Fifth street, who was removed
from the Delaware Hospital on Tues !
day 10 her home in the police am
bulance, following an operation, was
obliged TO arise from her bed. Ac- |
cording to Mr.. Cunningham. the bed !
she was lying on shook from the !
vibration. and her nervous condition |
became such that she could not re-
main in the bed.
At the home of Walter L. Nc |
Allister. 1900 West Fifth street. the |
vibration of the engine caused the .
chandeliers in the various rooms TO
iway backwards and forwards in
he same manner as when the Coun-
,ilmanic committee visited her home
'ecently to investigate complaints
II the residents.
The west winds this morning blew
he smoke from the stack towards
adams street and residents OF the
ection east of the plant got whiffs
4 the oil fumes.
At the home of Miss Elizabeth

ng that guests OF Miss Dugan, wo-
men residents of the lower part OF
Delaware, were unable to partake

UNCOVER OLD STOCK
EXCHANGE BOARD

"a relic OF by-gone days, when
Wilmington's business centre was
located IN and around Third and
Market streets. has been brought TO
light at the old Greenbaum property.
IA f. Third street. where Berger's
ciEar store was formerly situated.
fWorkmen in razing the inside OF
tnat old structure, in preparation
for remodeling the building have
Uncovered a stock market board.
The board" is in a good state Of
observation and had been painted
in black on a stone partition. The
various divisions for the different
ssucks are laid off in what were
once white lines. On the top of the
so-called board is the title New
York Stock Exchange" In large block
letters on the right are the words
used in a stock brokerage office.
They are; Opening, highest, lowest
and closing. In addition, there can
aso be discerned the initials OF
several stocks which were on the
market at that time. OF these the
plainest are: d. L. w, which prob
ably meant Delaware. Lackawanna
and " estern Railroad. and d. and
IL, which might have meant Della
ware and Hudson Railroad.
THE puzzllng part of the discov-
cry is that some Of the oldest resi-
dfnts who are familiar with the
Gays history can recall VINO used to
have a brokerage Office in the old
bnilding. Charles f. Dubell, who has
a, store opposite and who remem-
bers back some 5S years, does not
recall stock brokerage office
tAere. His brother Albert l. Dubell,
VINO has known that vicinity for at
least thirty years has no recollec-
tfbn of anything like a stock brok-
erage Office there.
sJesse X. Baylis, one OF the oldest
naen in business in this city, does
not recall such a place, either. How
eyer, this trio Of old residents have
come TO the conclusion it must have
been in the early part Of the pres
eht century. These dates are not /
deh...te nor is the name of the |
broser who had the exchange /
known.
gThe board had been covered with I
several layers of wall papef, and It /
was when this was being scraped Off ,
that the board was brought to light. 4
