will advise Immediately of such occurrences.
Or, if they may have at any time suggestions or
criticism which they think may lead to better tele
phone service, will be grateful If these are made
known to US.

And the tide of JOY in the heart fails
lower
And seldom covers the reef of care.
But all true things in the world seem
truer
And the better things of earth seem
best.
And friends are dearer, as friends are
fewer.
And love is all as our sun dips west.
So let us clasp hands as we walk to-
gether.
And let US speak softly in low, sweet
tone,
For no man knows on the morrow
whether
We two pass on-or but one alone.
The resolutions from the Bar are
gratefully accepted and may be
spread upon the records of this court.
And in further token of respect for
our deceased brothers this court ill
