PARK SCHOOL KIDDIES
PRACTICING ON "AHS"
It is within the possibilities that Park
school will have a new yell and It Is prob
able that the new yell will be mostly
'ah." The school yell of Park Is not an
everyday demonstration, but Is reserved
tor special and Important occasions. A
few weeks ago, when Principal Mason
brought In a copy of The Bee and read
of tha proposed new building for the Park
district, then the hoys and girls gave
their school yell, because that was an Im
portant news event
The story of ah, as It pertains ts Park
school, begins with Nurse Kaiser, who
makes the examinations of the children.
When examining the children's throats
It Is customary to use tongue depressors.
but not at Park school. All the nurse ties
to do is ask the children to say "ah,"
Snd she can see sny throat without the
aid of a depressor or a periscope. This
situation makes the work easy for the
nurse. Besides, it ts saving the expense
of tongue depressors, aa each depressor
can be used only once.
The new Park school yell will sound
something like thin:
Ah! Ah! Ah! Ha! lie! Ha!
Park! Park I Park'
Aha! Aha! Aha!

Working out complex scientific and engineering
problems, the Bell Telephone System has a general staff
of more than 600 technical, electrical and mechanical
experts.
Most, if not all, the telephone instrumentalities that
have led to Improvement in telephone service In the
world were either evolved by, or adopted and developed
by, this staff.
The Bell System's general engineering staff includes
a greater number of scientific, technical and mechanical
experts of a higher grade than can be found in all the
other government or private telephone administrations
in the world combined.
By means of this centralized general staff the Bell
System is able to keep in advance of the telephone art,
avoid repetition and duplication of work, and give each
Associated Company in the System expert advice and
expert assistance.
The cost of this work is largo, but it is spread over
a vast system and the cost to each community is very
small. The expense has been warranted a hundred fold
by results. It has enabled the Bell System to give the
best and the cheapest telephone service in the world.
