"The extension of the night dis-; count to person-to-person service will; be particularly attractive to our cus tomers," Manager R. M. Misner ex plained to the editor of The Journal. "It will result in an appreciable sav ing of money. The discount on a night person-to-person call will be the same in amount as the discount on the night station-to-station call Weeping Water being present. Ajfor the same distance.

A traveling man representing a firm who sells goods all over the country, when the matter of auto accidents wa3 under discussion said. it is verily a fact that when driving 'on the highway one had to drive four j care instead of the one he occupies. if the day station-to-station rate is $1.00 and the night station-to-staticn rate is 60c, the discount would be 4 0c. This is the amount of discount that will apply on a night person-to-person call as compared with a day person-to-person call for the same distance. "The extension of the night dis count period to include Sunday will also bo pleasing," Mr. Misner con tinued, "since it will make long dis tance service more useful to our cus tomers at a time when the volume of business is light and calls can be completed with unusual rapidity. The night rate for all classes of service will go into effect on Saturday at the usual hour, 7:00 p. m., and will con tinue all day Sunday and until 4:30 a. m., Monday." t "...? i1 i- liac1. .i TV,,..- . , . . 1 1 t. . uu luv lmv IUCI1 t v., wntrh tho car immediately in front of his and the car which leen reported as being considerable i to Fiattsmouth where they inspected . better.

Grandma Crawford who resides with her sen, Winnie Crawford, was taken very ill last week with heart trouble, and while her life was de spaired of for a time ha3 rallied and was reported much improved on Tuesday. Charles Garrison was shelling and delivering corn to the Union elevator Monday of this week, thinking that while the price is not exceedingly high there might be a chance of it iparently having been caused by a heart attack. Another sad feature of the passing of Mr. Hilger is the fact that his wife has been in St. Mary's hospital for several months suffer ing from cancer with slight hope of recovery. Eetnmed to Home. Mr. and Mrs. Ernest M. Rathe and the kiddies arrived in Union about three months ago and have been here since until on Sunday they departed for their home in the northwestern portion of the state at Gordon. Their object in coming here besides visit ing the folks, Mr. and Mrs. L. G.

Several weeks ago she underwent an operation and has since been Ehowing good improve ment. It is with much pleasure that they are able to return to their home in the northwest with the wife again in good health. Look for Good Fruit.

The interstate com merce commission told the New York Central railroad it could not pay more than 5 percent interest on a 75 mil lion promissory note issue. The com mission's order followed by a few days a strong New York Central pro test against a suggestion by Oliver E. Sweet, ICC finance director, that the rate might be cut to 4 percent. The railroad had proposed a 6 per cent rate. Significance was attached to the commission's action in the wake of recent moves by the Reconstruction corporation to slash interest rates on railroad obligations, and repeated ob servations by President Roosevelt that interest rates In general were too high. While the RFC has thrown its Influence behind a 4 percent rate for certain long term railroad obli gations, the ICC order dealt with short term "emergency" financing. TO GET BIG DIVIDENDS Omaha.
