THURSDAY, JUNE 18, 1942 THE PLATTSMOUTH EVENING JOURNAL PAGE FIVE Deeping Hater By Journal Field Representor McDona'd Bradshaw 4 j The small chapel in All Saints Church, in Omaha, was the scene of a beautiful wedding Saturday morn ing at eleven o'clock, when the pas tor, Dr. Clayton officiated at the wedding ceremony which united Iiss Madeline McDonald, daughter of Mrs. Amanda McDonald, of Wee'pi Water, to Dr. R.

CLOCK WHEN MAKING LOCAL TELEPHONE CALLS ! Telephone service has not been "frozen." Telephone companies are still free to make new main business or residence installations, or business extension installations, wherever existing exchange facilities are ample. But tele phone equipment or service must not be wasted if a com plete "freeze" order is to be avoided. There will be suf ficient service for all subscribers if the existing service is not used selfishly. Here are ways YOU can help: (1) Keep an eye on your clock when using local service particularly party line service. (2) Make your conversations as brie? as possible. (3) Refrain from prolonged "visit ing" calls. Minutes slip away mighty fast when you are "just visit ing" as your clock can tell you if you keep an eye on it. A large number of such calls can quickly lower the oper ating efficiency of any telephone exchange.
