To Signal the Operator
WHEN you have .been .given the wrong number,
or for any other reason you wish to get the oper-
ator's attention at once, it is useless to "jiggle"
the receiver hook.
When the receiver hook is moved up and down rap-
idly, the operator does not answer because the signal
light on the switchboard does not flash and attract her
attention.
The right way is to move the receiver hook up and
down slowly, which causes the little switchboard light to
glow and brings a prompt response from the operator.
Patience and deliberate action always result in less-
ening the delay and are a great aid to the operator in
getting the right number for you.

HUGHES' CHANCES.
A correspondent of the Kansas
City Star who accompanied Presi-
dential Candidate Hughes on the
recent trip to the northwest and west,
has been writing a series of articles
about the impression made by Judge
Hughes upon the voters of the states
visited. He says that while tremen-
dous audiences attended the meetings
there was no rip-roaring enthusiasm,
but they gave warm, cordial recep-
tions and listened with intense in-
terest. The general expression was,
the correspondent says, that "Hughes
Will Do.,' The correspondent, after
sizing up the situation pro and con.
gives it as his unbiased opinion that
Hughes will carry Minnesota Illinois,
Michigan. North and South Dakota,
Idaho, Washington, Oregon, Cali-
fornia, Utah and Wyoming, with a
fighting chance on Colorado, Missouri
and Montana. These were the states
visited by Judge Hughes on his trip.

—Mrs. E. Manire left this morning
for Kansas City to be absent a couple
of weeks, the guest of friends in that
city.
—Some people are sure foolish. For
instance, one man we hear about who
had a job that was netting him a
goodly amount, bringing him in from
$30 to $50 a week over expenses, got
smart and concluded his employer
could not get along without him; tell-
ing his boss, in fact, where to "get
off." Now he is hunting another
job. Whenever a man thinks he is
indespensable on any job, he should
put his finger into a bucket of water,
pull it out and look for the hole.

visiting in Mangum, Oklaa., for some
six weeks, is expected home today.
