"Hcllo Girls" New Quarters.

The Newport switchboard of the
Telephone Company was moved to
their new quarters in the new Ma
tional Bank building on Sunday
morning as scheduled For a num-
Der of days previous, cable men un-
der foreman C. A. Parker of Rut-
land were at work running in the
necessary cable while switchboard
men under the supervision of d. E.
Smith Of Manchester, N. H., were
busy installing the distributing
frame and getting ready for the
move early Sunday morning. These
men worked continuously from early
Saturday morning until after six
o'clock Sunday night, stopping only
to eat their meals, in order that
service to subscribers might be in
terrupted as little as possible.
The cutting of the lines out of the
switchboard commenced at two
o'clock Sunday morning and as soon
as the board was free it was moved
on rollers to the front Of the build
mig and thence over runway that
had been constructed between the
two buildings to the new building
where it was placed and the recon-
Meeting of the lines commenced at
nVe O'CLOCK. by noon many OF Uno
circuits were working but it was
nearly six o'clock before the last of
the over four hundred lines was cut
in.
In order to handle emergency and
important toll calls, trunk lines to
outside exchanges and lines connect
ing two booths centrally located had
been cut into the chief operators
desk, which had been moved to the
new office previous to the moving of
the switchboard and operators sche-
duled to work on Sunday acted as
messengers in calling nearby parties
wanted on toll calls while Manager
Brown was kept busy with his car
in delivering messages to parties
farther away and bringing people to
the business office to talk.
The Telephone Company will oc-
cupy the entire second floor of the
new bank building but the portion to
be occupied by the commercial de-
partment is not yet completed, so
that department will remain for a
short time where it is now located in
the Foster block.

Hospital Bazaar Is Planned.

The Ladies' Auxiliary to the Or
leans County Memorial hospital held
a very enthusiastic meeting at the
City Council rooms Tuesday even
ing. There was q good attendance
and the principal business was to
make plans and arrange for a baz-
aar early in December.
The Hospital Auxiliary was or
ganized September 10 and similar
auxiliaries are planned in other
towns in the county which the hos
pital is to serve. 1t is the plan of
these organizations to form the
connecting links between the insti-
tuition and it's various maintaining
sources. They will keep things hum
ming from now ON, with plenty of
work and jolly good times. The baz-
aar will be of similar nature to
the one staged by the Legion Auxil-
larry, but. perhaps on a larger scale.
The affair will take place at the arm
DRY Friday, December 9Th.
More than a dozen booths attrac-
lively decorated will be arranged
about the spacious floor of the arm
DRY, from which will be sold articles
of various descriptions, such as fan
cy work, home cooked food, confec-
LlOuoTy, pIdHCS dIlQ CUT 1IOWSTS.
Then there will be the baby boothan
grab-as-you-can booth. A live COM
mittee have been appointed and
many new stunts and surprises will
greet the patrons. In connection
with the sale an afternoon tea will
be served.
In the evening all the unsold goods
will be disposed of by auction and a
social dance will follow. High class
music will be furnished for the dance
and all will be assured of one big
time full of pep and fun.
On Saturday the 18th the Auxil-
larry will conduct another of their
food sales at the Newport Electric
shop when all kinds and quantities of
home cooked food will be on sale.
This sale will be in charge Of Mrs.
F. D. Flint assisted by Christine
Blanchard, Mrs. P. C. Blanchard and
Mrs. Fred Magoon. These food sales
have been wonderfully successful,
but this. will be the last one the
auxiliary will hold until after
Christmas, so the public will do well
to be. on hand in order to get some
of the good things provided.
