Card #f Thank*,
Owing to the fact that the kind
nesses shown and the sympathies ex
tended to us in our recent sad bereave
ment, it is quite impossible to thank
each one personally and therefore we
take this means to express our heart
felt gratitude to our friends and
neighbors, in fact all the people of
O’Neill, for the sympathetic words
expressed and kind acts performed to
soften and allay our great grief.

Telephone Men at Home
Are Doing the Work
of Those Doing to
Until employees are trained to take the
places of those who have Joined the colors,
those telephone workers who are remaining
t at home must shoulder the load.
The thousands of skilled telephone work
i ers who have gone into the army cannot be
readily replaced.
One man in every atx from our telephone
maintenance and construction forees is now
\ in some branch of the military service.
Between the various training camps, mil
itary and supply depots scattered all over
j the country, the number of telephone calls
has been steadily Increasing.
Private business, accelerated by the war,
has required constantly increasing amounts
of additional telephone equipment and
service.
There is also an astonishing demand for
telephone equipment for the training camps
here and for the armies in Europe, and the
cost of telephone equipment and materials
is now double what it was three years ago.
These extraordinary demands for tele
phone service and equipment for govern
ment and private needs have come upon the
Bell Telephone companies when they are
short more than 6,800 trained men who have
gone into the army.
In spite of the war and what It has meant to this company in the
Increased number of telephone messages to handle, the enlistment of
so many of our trained men, the shortage of equipment, the scarcity
) of labor and the high cost of telephone materials—
In spite of all these obstacles, we are meeting the needs jjf_ the
publio for telephone service in a remarkably successful way.

Believing Or
Knowing
In the public press, over our signature, we tell you that the
asbestos lining of ranges sweats every time a fire is built. We tell
you that this sweat causes a range to rust out from the inside.
We tell you that plating the fire lining with copper or aluminum
or enamel can do no possible good, because on the wrong side of the
asbestos.
We tell you that a sheet of pure copper on the cold side of the
asbestos between the asbestos and range body is the only way to pre
vent internal rust in ranges.
LET US PROVE IT
% ... ... ™ ■ ""
Come and See the Asbestos Sweat.
See the sweat standing on the iron body. Roll this moisture up
in beads with your finger. See the same piece of asbestos sweat again
as soon as it cools, in 30 minutes or less time.
You will also see the sheet of copper between the asbestos and
range body. You will see the dry air space next to the range body.
You will see how internal rust is entirely overcome by placing a sheet
of pure copper between the asbestos and range body.
You will see why Copper-Clad Ranges are so named. You will see
a range that wipes clean like a dish; a range that is as free of hinges,
catches and latches, as an automobile body. You will see an ebony
body framed in nickel, with not a rivet head or screw head or bolt
head to mar its silvery surface.
