American Rates
Lowest in the World
Here are the actual prices paid for service per
telephone per year in five leading European
countries having government ownership, taken
from official reports and translated into Amer
ican money:
Austria 1 24.9G
Belgium 39.05
France 28.61
Germany .- ..... 22.69
England 32,60
The average is $29.58 against an average of
$30.45 charged by the Bell System in America;
but remember, in Austria $1.00 will buy what
requires $2.00 in the United States in payment
of wages and the purchase of necessities; in
Belgium the ratio of prices as compared with
the United States is about $1.00 to $2.32, in
France $1.00 to $1.48, in Germany $1.00 to $1.50
and in England $1.00 to $2.28.
V
When the efficiency of the service is consid
ered and when the, jjelative cost of producing
the service is computed, American telephone
rates are by far the oheapest in the world.

A Matter of Judgment
Deacqn Jones' goat 'as king of Jonesville until the railroad
came. He had butted everything into immediate flight, from the
yellow dbg to the tax collector. The day the first express came
tearing in at thirty miles an hour, the goat met the engine "half
way.' As the deacon stood thoughtfully amid a "shower of goat
remnants" a friend said:" "Well, deacon, what do you think of your t
goat now? "Oh" said the deacon, "I admire his courage but -damn
his judgment."
