AT BRIDE'S PRETTY HOME
A Sermon On Lumber
Inconclusion my friends, we cari't get away from
this lumber question. Why, every one of us
spent our first days in a cradle made of lumber.
Our lives have been lived between walls of two
by fours and lath, with rafters over our heads,
and matched flooring beneath our feet. We have
been sitting in wooden chairs, eating from wooden
tables, riding in wooden wagons, and in the course
of time will be laid to rest in wooden caskets.

Telephone Traffic
c in Peace and War
Purchase of army supplies, tho mobilization of troops
and the gigantic war preparations have necessitated an
4 r unusually large number of local and long distance tele
phone calls.
We are handling 80 per cent more long dlstnnce calls
than we did before the war began, and heavy demands
have been made upon us by the government for telephone
equipment, and for trained men for the army signal corps.
In this time of tho nation's greatest
need you can "do your bit" by asking
only for equipment you must have and
by making only sucn local and long dis
tance calls as are absolutely necessary.
