have been steady increases in
wages and salaries and in the
cost of materials, equipment, and
services which the company must
buy for the operation of the tele-
phone system and for continued
expansion and improvement of
telephone facilities to meet the
public need and demand"
Extensive training and in
creased efficiency of per:onnel,
employment of new techniques

improved equipment and APP
paratus, and aggressive mer-
chandising have all contributed
to the company's ability to fore
stall increasing its rates for local
service during six years of gen
eral price inflation," Williams
continued However, the earn
ings of the company have for
some time been steadily declin-

ably necessary to reprice its ser

insure the necessary financial
stability and credit position oi

Medicinal Use of Alcohol
By DR.. PETER }. STEINcRoHN

I recall a clergyman's wife
became angry with me be-
cause I suggested that her
husband take an ounce or
two Of liquor daily to cut
down the number of his
angina attacks. He was TAX
ing about 20 nitroglycerine
tablets a day with but little
relief.
A MONTH LATER she re-
turned to say how sorry she
was for allowing her think

fort and almost constant
pain. At last they had agreed
to bring some brandy into
their house. After taking a
tablespoonful four times a day
(about two ounces he re-
quired only less than a half
dozen nitroglycerine pills to
keep him comfortable.
In spite of hundreds of ex-
amples of the effectiveness Of
alcohol as a medication in
many conditions land realiz-
ing well the dangers of habit
tuation) doctors who pre-
scribe it continue to receive
complaints from people who
are against it on moral
grounds"
For example, here is a let
ter received recently which
points up the objection many
people have against alcohol:
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: I

our local paper. I am sorry
that for once I must disagree
with you on the medicinal
use OF aIcOh0l.
You say you are against

the dangers of alcoholism.
You also say that you have
had experience with alcohol
as a medicine.

Of Mary as the time grew

But what about the words
of Micah who had said that
the Saviour would be born in
Bethlehem? Nazareth, where
Joseph and Mary lived, was
almost a hundred miles from
Bethlehem by the twisting
road, and in those days a
hundred miles was a tre-

Each year every country in
his empire had to send him
a certain amount of gold as
taxes. If it had no gold. the
country had to send him its
fattest sheep or a whole
camel train of its finest
wheat. OF course, a large
country had to give more to
Caesar than a small country.
So. in order to know how
much each country should
pay, Caesar had to count all
the people in the world.
Now, in order to keep the
different families and places
in the huge empire straight,
Caesar decided that everyone
should go back to the town
where his family had first
lived, to be taxed there.
