ssTELL 1T TO THE MARINES"

Lon CLANCY, master of thousand
faces, has turned "leatherneck" and
joined the Marines, at least for the
time necessary to make that stall
wart drama "Tell it to the Marines"
which will be presented at the Ar
cadia Theatre in Wilmington for the
entire week of May End.
Despite the title, "Tell it to the
Marines" is not a romance of the
late war. 1t has action plenty and
there is some real fighting, but 1t
transpires in a sunny cline, down IN
Hawaii and about the South Sea
Isles.
Chaney is forceful as the trough
neck" Sergeant whose dauntless
courage, striking loyalty, and great
humanity, makes him typical Of the
Marines in whose ranks he serves.
William Haines is the young devil
dog" who becomes a real Marine un-
der the instruction and guidance Of
Chaney and Eleanor Boardman Is
the girl in the romance.
"Tell it to the Marines" has much
to recommend it as entertainment.
It's action, its love element and its
humor are all in such well-balanced
abundance, that there is not a lag
ging moment in the whole perform
ance.

transformed Bismarck's telephone
system into one Of the most efficient
and up-to-date in the country, Mr..
Snyder says. The work has required
more than year to complete and in
addition to the construction of the
new building and installation Of the
equipment, extensive improvements
also have been made to the outside
telephone plant.
This outside plant work included
the placing Of $50 new poles and TO-
900 feet of cable, practically all un-
foreground, which will protect the
wires from storms. fires, and the
like and tend to reduce interruptions
to the service from these causes. In
addition to this work large num-
Der of poles, wires and cables which
previously were on the main streets
have been removed to alleys and else
where and many of the wires running
from subscribers premises to nearby
telephone poles have been transferred
to the rear of buildings. This has
enhanced the appearance of Bis
marck's principal thoroughfares.
These improvements were necessary
to enable the company to meet the
increasing demand for telephone SER
vice in Bismarck not only today but
in the future rs well, according to
Mr.. Snyder. 1t became necessary for
the company either to enlarge the
buildings which it has been occupying
here and to install considerable new
equipment in them, or to build a new
telephone structure. After care
full study and survey it was deter
",ned that the latter program would
be the most economical and the COM
pans proceeded to rebuild Bismarck
telephone system.
Visiting Day Planned
At the present time % telephone
operators are employed in Bismarck
They handle on an average 10000
local and 500 long distance calls each
day.
Visitors are always welcome ut the
central office to see how their calls
are handled on the switchboard and
how the various parts of equipment
all working together are used in
furnishing their telephone service
Mr.. Snyder announces that special
effort will be made to have as many
people as possible visit the new tele-
phone building about the middle OF
September when it is planned ia
have an "open house The exact
dates will be announced later.

a reasonable time before attempting
t. rlace the Fall again.
In addition to the switch board,
which is on the second floor, the new
telephone building contains a Va st
amount of other appara.as and equip
rent used in furnishing service to
the people Of Bismarck.
In equipping the new building
every precaution has been taken to
prevent possible interruption to telc-
phone service in case of an Interrupt
ton to the city current used to
charge the storage batteries, which
are in the basement. When this
happens, an emergency gas engine
charging set, also in the basement.
can be placed in service. The ringing
machines needed to provide current
for ringing subscribers telephone
hollis are located on the first floor.
Should the ringing machine used reg
ularly to provide this current be
taken out of service because of re-
pairs, or, for some other reason, Il
second machine will be available and
ready for use.
Another interesting thing in the
basement of the building is the cable
vault. 1t is here that approximately
5000 wires coming frem all sections
of the city enter the building in
cables. The heating plant and stor-
age space for tools and supplies also
are located in the basement.
Office on First Floor
The commercial office where Man
ager Snyder and his capable assist
ants will transact business dealings
with the company's patrons is on the
first floor. 1t is here that Bismarck
subscribers may obtain information
concerning their service, pay tele-
phone bills. place orders for tele-
phones, and so forth.
In the terminal room on the first
floor wires which come from the
cable vault in the basement are
sorted, numbered and connected to
a frame before being extended to the
floor above and connected to the
switchboard. The power board also
is located here.
This floor also contains the inter-
esting equipment used in connection
with the new transcontinental long
distance lines which pass through
Bismarck. This equipment includes
the intricate apparatus used in test
ing long distance lines and number
voice currents which become weaker
and weaker the farther they travel
and must be reinforced at regular in
tervals along the line to enable them
to reach their destination.
In addition to the new switchboard.
the second floor will contain a COM
fortably furnished rest room for use
of the operators and facilities to en-
able operators who desire to do SO
to prepare their own luncheons in
the building. The company has set
aside two periods of Is minutes each
during regular working hours each
day to permit the operators to relax
from their duties at the switchboard.
OF course, all of the operators do
not leave the switchboard at the
same time, because telephone service
must be furnished continuously. But
every operator does enjoy these two
15-minute intermissions each day in
the rest room, which are spent sew
ing, reading or enjoying sociable
chat.
Large Program Completed
The placing in service of the new
central office will complete a pro-
gram of improvements which has
