Independent and Bell Telephone Companies Form a National System Independent telephone com panies operate exclusively in three-fourths of the towns and cities in the United States having telephone exchanges. The other one-fourth of the towns in this country having telephone exchanges are serv ed by telephone companies comprising the Bell System. There is competition be tween Independent and Bell telephone companies in a small percentage of the towns in the United States. The long distance lines of the Bell System connect with the exchanges and long dis tance lines of most of the Independent Companies, thus forming a universal telephone service throughout the nation.

So cial hour following meeting. Every body come. Washington, June 13—“Ray-vay-yav mwah kong ler dee-nay ser-ah pray,” i is the proper way to tell a Frenchman to wake you up when dinner is ready, according to a little “French in one ; lesson" that has been distributed among the United States Marines who are going to France. Every sea-sol dier on the firing line will be supplied with a handy little pocket dictionary that contains about a thousand prac tical words and phrases, together with the plionetical pronounciation, accord ing to Hannibal, Charlemagne, or who [ ever it was that originated the French language. It is just the size to fit handily into the breast-pocket of a uni form. Doubtless the little poilu will lend a hand to his American comrade when he comes to a particularly knot j ty problem. Should the sea-soldier be come peeved at the intricacies of the language, he may say, “Ock-oo-pav” just like that. It means “Busy.” NOTiCE TO DEFENDANTS. Fred P. King, Valmore J. Smith. An nie S.
