The Postoffice nd the Telephone
Ton expect to be able to send a let
ter anywhere. You can nearly. But
you can send a long: distance tele
phone message to 12,000 more places
In this country than you can send a
letter.
According to the Postmaster Gen
eral's figures, there are 58.000 places
that have postoffices. There are
70,000 places reached by long distance
lines of the Bell Telephone System.
There are 50 per cent more tele
phone messages than letters sent in
this country. In Europe, where the
governments own and operate nearly
all of the telephones, there are only
about one-third as many telephone
messages sent as letters.
Private enterprise in America has
made telephone service so efficient and
given the service at so low rates that
nearly everybody uses the telephone.
The United States, which has but 6
per cent of the world's population,
has 64 per cent of all the world's tele
phones. On January 1st last year there were
8,729,592 telephones in the United
States and only 4,821,382 in all the
rest of the world.

OLD I1ICKOIIY ( HIPS
The submarine baa played a more
Important part so far, than tbe alr
Mf, tberttbr demonstrating the ad
vantage sometimes to be attained by
keeping out of the spotlight.
If we are to believe the many
changes and counterchaiigns. noth
ing is fair in war.
Col.' Roosevelt seems to be doins
his best to get somebody else to sue
him to lebel.
Not being able to get Into the big
league, Spain has gone back to llghi
ing the Moors.
If typewriters were machine guns
the charge of the English author's
brigade would be something formid
able. The fellow who figured out how
old Ann was is now estimating the
cost of the European war.
Helgians fleeing by thousands to
foreign lands have their neutrality
guaranteed by solemn treaty, if that
la any comfort to them.
Belgium must be sympathetically
regarded as having been made to pay
for far more than Its Just share of
the cost that staggers humanity.
Now that the entire vote of the
state is canvassed and I have had op
portunity to consider the returns and
note the splendid endorsement which
I have received at the hands of the
public throughout the entire state
gratifying as it is to be thus endors
ed that which appeals to me most
Is the excellent tribute accorded me
In the handsome majorities I receiv

and county.

ford me great pleasure to discharge
the obligations of my office in such
a manner as to retain the respect,
confidence and esteem shown me in
the recent election.
As I observe tbe returns from the
various counties of the state I feel
like tbe young man who was sudden
ly called upon to fill the pulpit for a
minister, and after he had searched
In vain for a text, he finally closed
the Bible and said to the congrega
tion, "It ain't no use to look for no
partleular text, It'a all good." And
so It i with the vote throughout the
state. It la no use to look for the
locality showing the best vote, it Is
all good and I appreciate the loyalty
and assistance of my many friends.

MOTHERS' DAY
GREAT FEATURE
Two Hundred and Twenty-Five
Mother of Alliance and Vicin
ity Attend Service
The "Mothers' Day" observance
on last Thursday was a great feature
of the last week of the revival meet
ings which were conducted by Evan-
geliat Hamilton and Prof. Gould at
the Alliance M. E. church. The re
quest, "Wear a white flower for
mother's sake," received a generous
response. White carnation on the
lapels of men's coats were In evi
denoe on thestreets and In the stores
during the day.
The service in the church, at 2:30
p. m., was unique, differing from any
service ever before held in Alliance
and was Intensely Interesting to all
who attended, except perhaps the
wee tots who were too young to pay
any attention to it. There were 225
mothers present, besides many other
persons.
When the time arrived to open the
service, Evangelist Hamilton re
quested tbe audience to spend five
minutes visiting with others near
them, after which he railed for the
singing of old songs. Memories of
the older persons were refreshed by
the singing of many splendid old
time favorites. At tbe close of the
singing. Dr. Hamilton asked tbe
mothers to tell in what states they
were born and from what states they
came to Nebraska. Besides the many
states of this country that were
named, other countries were men
tioned, including Canada, England,
Wales, Germany and Switterland.
Then came the giving of ages to as
certain who was the oldest mother
present, ranging all the way from 10
to 85. Mrs. Lyda Corbett. 85 years
of age, was the oldest. A beautiful
bouquet was presented to her. Mrs.
Corbett lives with her daughter. Mrs.
A. A. Wright, tve biIIm west of Al
liance. Prof. Gould sang a solo. "Mother
Kbowu." following which Jfrangelist
Hamilton gave a fine address oa tbe
subject. "Mother."
ORGANIZED FOR
BIBLE STUDY
Young Men of Metliodixt tliunlt Or.
gunlzlng for Kyatttnatlr HIM
Study In Sunday St hool
The young men's class of the
Methodist Sunday School is being or
ganized Into what is known as a Bi
ble Study Class. This is in conform
ity with a movement among Sunday
Schools the world over, and it Is the
experience of those who have tried
this method that nothing compares
with It for promoting Christian fel
lowship and Bible study, and encour
aging work among strangers, espec
ially among young people.
This organisation must not be tsk
en for the Young Men's Bible Club,
which Is an Inter-denomlnatlonal
club, but Is a part, and subject to
the rules, of the Methodist Sunday
School. The lessons are to be han
died as heretofore, but the class will
be working through their commit
tees in getting new members, keep
ing after delinquent members, ar
ranging social events, and In giving
the movement the publicity it de
serves. A meeting was held Sunday after
noon at the home of Archie Gregory,
teacher of the class, and the follow
ing officers were elected: Chas. Wal
ters, pres.: Fred Wilkes, vice pres.;
Orvllle Davenport, sec.-treas. A
committee was appointed to draw up
a constitution similar In form to the
one suggested by the Sunday School
association, and the organization will
no doubt be perfected by next Sun
day.
A three-weeks campaign for new
members is being made, with the un
drBtandlng that all who Join on or
before Nov. 29 will be considered
charter members and will have their
names written on the charter. All
that la required to be considered a
member is signifying a desire to
Join, and by attendance. No dues
are required.
All young men between the ages
of "17 and 70" who have no other
church affiliations are cordially In
vited to Join this class; they will be
given a cordial welcome, and will be
assured a well-spent hour. The class
will meet at 10 o clock every Sunday
morning, In the M. E. church.
