Courtesy and Efficiency Are
Paramount.

Courtesy and efficiency are the most
important factors involved in the
new operating method just placed in
effect at Oakland and other towns by
the Chesapeake and Potomac Tele-
phone Company. Eugene Bowers,
manager of the company, on being
asked concerning the new practice
whereby the operator says "Thank
you," instead of repeating the num-
Der called for by the subscriber as
heretofore, said, "The new operating
method that has been in effect for the
past few days marks enother advance
in telephone operating methods.
'This new practice, known as re-
stricted repetition generally does
away with the operator repeating the
number after it is received from the
subscriber. Instead of repeating the
number as formerly, the operator says
thank YOU 1t is believed that this
practice will meet with almost uni
versal approval of every telephone
user, since it will increase the eff
cheney of the operating force, which
means a quicker service.
people generally speak clearly and
distinctly in giving the number of the
telephone wanted and it is felt that
with the new operating practice in eff
feet, the public will be well pleased.
However, in case of doubt as to the
number wanted as she understands it.,
the operator will repeat as formerly,
What number, please?' In the major
ity of cases, however, she will merely
say thank you and complete the call
or give definite report.
"Under the new operating method
calls can be established much quicker
than heretofore, which means an i'm
proved service for the subscriber and
we believe that everyone will accept
this operating practice in the spirit
of courtesy and efficiency as it is in
tended by the management of the
company.

impressively and carried with him to
certain extent, his candidate for the
Republican gubernatorial preference,
Marion A. Humphreys, of Salisbury.
The county vote, altogether incom-
plete, due to slow counting and in
difference to Republican issues in some
districts, was steadily growing in
Weller's favor. He is assured of eigh-
ty votes in the state convention-six
more than necessary to nominate.

appeared could not hope to overtake
his opponent, although he should fin

the vote was slow in coming.

35,6O6, while Hill was 32,661.
Addison E. Mullikin, the Weller
candidate, appeared practically as
sured of the gubernatorial nomina-
ton, although the standing of Multi
kin and Humphreys was such that
the later reporting of missing pre-
clncts might upset the Mullikin lead.
Governor Albert C. Richie swept
through to the Democratic guber-
Material nomination on the crest of
triumphal wave of popular votes
aggregating more than 100000 with
all counties complete or nearly so.
William Mines Maloy, former Ritch-
lie appointee on the public service COM
mission, was given slightly better than
$4,000 votes. Richie took every seat
in the State Convention.
The Republican nomination for clerk
of the court of Appeals, was going to
Mrs. Eva c. Chase, with slight chance
of an upset. Mrs. Chase last night

FOUR C0RNERED FIGHT FOR SENATE
Returns From 10 of 81 Precincts Show That Wei

ties Over Their Opponents and That Sloan Has
Sweeping Victory Over Watson

Unofficial returns at noon to-

lead over Wachter, while D. L.
Sloan, who had as his opponent
for Chief Judge Charles G. Wat

thousand votes which will be in
creased slightly with the receipt
of the returns from the districts
still missing.
