pony failed to keep up with him."
That's the controlled press for YOU
I must have played at least half
that game on my pony.
The score rolled up like thunder
(out of China, across the State
line), and, when it was over, they
carried me off the field on their
shoulders, looking for feathers to go
with the tar.
Il never saw anything like it."
Lord Cowdray was telling me the
other day. Join up with us. old
chap, and we'll beat these Yam
KEGS yet. With you to clean our
horses"
I had to turn him down. My
services. such as they are. belong
to Uncle Sam. But I gave Cowdray
friendly tip.
There's one way you can avoid
a licking Sunday. Cowdray, old
man." I said, "and I feel that
should pass the tip along to you-
don't show up"
His lordship is thinking 1t over.

Joint Telephones
In WarrentO nAnd
Norlina Requested

Warren county's board of COM
missioners has made request Of the
Carolina Telephone & Telegraph
Company that the company's ex-
changes in Warrenton and Norlins
be operated from the same switch
boards, and that the toll charge for
converse tons between the two towns
be eliminated
The request was made on the
ground that it is unjust for residents
Of the two towns, four miles apart
to be forced to pay ten cents for a
station O-statiOn call and 20 cents
for pers0n-to-person call when free
service is offered over much longer
distance in other parts Of Warren
county and in cities.
Boyd White, of Norlina, brought
the matter to the attention OF the
Warren county board, claiming the
charges are exorbitant, and that per
sons living in the two towns fire.
quently preferred to get into their
automobiles and drive the four miles
rather than pay 20 cents for the tele-
phone call when there was business
to transact. He Ventured the pre-
diction that elimination Of the tolls
would result in a profit to the tele-
phone company as more persons
would be subscribers if they did not
have to pay to talk to Warrenton.
The commissioners agreed with Mr.
White and decided to write home Of
flee officials Of the telephone COM
pany in Tarboro asking that the two
towns be put on the same exchange.
A copy Of the letter is also being sent
to the State UtilWities Commission
in Raleigh.
