NERO
If you read the great advertise-
ments in the magazines you see
where the 87000 are gathered at the
great play-house The Colisium in
Rome to see the Christians be eaten
by the lions The Basket ball base-
ball and sprinting got entirely too
tame for the Romans and they fed a
few Evangelists to the lions It drew
a full house and the applause was
quite frequent no doubt This would
please Nero and he was politician
enough to arrange for the applause
advance when he put on a big
show These plays were very popu-
lar to the 87000 with compliment-
ary tickets and the hungry lions but
the Christiana who were the leading
ladles had their press agents against
the show as blood-thirsty and im-
moral and carrying athletics to ex-
cess They hired the best srtirt they
could get to paint their picture
kneeling as the lions were about to
Jump and an old whiskered patriarch
preaching This picture is still used
to sell Ridpath’s Histories
Lee Wells and W D Crane will
find out in a few years if they keep
busy that they knew each other in
Illinois Then after they get that
established there is Atty Bert Dar-
tnell who can be added to the circle

UNIVERSAL telephone service
must be universal in scope — it must
reach anyone anywhere But it must
be universal also in cost — it must be
within the financial reach of everyone
everywhere
Years of research have been required
to provide the telephone instruments
switchboards wire and supplementary
apparatus which afford inter-communication
between housewives shopkeep-
ers farmers and millions of other
American telephone users
But these facilities do not in them-
selves make America’s telephone service
a universal serviceTelephone engineers
have spent years of additional 6tudy in
order to build maintain and operate
this nation-wide system so economically
that the cost of service may he kepi at
all times well below its value to the
telephone user
Upon the two fundamentals ofiexten-
siveness in scope and economy in cost
the Bell System has built thost uni-
versal telephone service ia the world

Charley Hebard Gounty Engineer
Charley may have surveyed one side
of a grade before dinner and the
other side after dinner but we don’t
think the beer he drank hurt any-
body very much In the main his
work has stood the test
in play In fact play is the big part
of education Many teachers are not
capable of teaching true education
and resort to ai subterfuge to keep
up the attendance and interest
