A mathematician has figured out that a certain telephone company is losing 152 hours of work every day through the time taken by ts operat- ors to say “Please,” recalls the Crookston Times. Yet the efficiency of an employe is not ‘always measured by the capacity to hustle through the most work. There are many people holding fixed positions with public service corpora- tions who become very short and crusty in dealing with the public. Their efficiency is harmful. There are some men in such posi- tions who are altogether too much in- clined to look on their positions as life jobs. They are irritated by fool- ish questions, and they take it out on the general public. No doubt they are hurried and nervous. If so, they camps safesaway from the' battle- fields, and‘no soldiers:6i the. battle- fields, no battleflelds. For war is like electricity. Two live-wires must touch or nothing doing on the “fire’” line, and the two armies must clash- or peace is in command.—Albert Lea Tribune. —— ‘A mere schooltboy in"the' prairie] country has proved-that farming pays better than clerking if it is only dore the right way. Last year this lad made a record .whieh has. just found its way into farming statistics. On a half acre_he reaped.a profit of [ $141 for a little less than ome month’s actual labor. Even. if he lost a month’s time by bad weather, sickness, etc., he still made wages. It would not be wise for every ambitious boy to turn farmer, but no boy whose ambition runs that way should be deterred by the ery of the croakers that “farming doesn’t pay.”—Stillwater Gazette.

X x $25,000,000-TO ALLIES % fi’#*i*iliiliii"# London, June 10.—(By mail to New York.)—America, the most phil- anthropic nation of the world, has contributed. thus far-in money alone nearly $25,000,000 to the Allies, a¢- cording to an English writer today. preparing a book on the voluntary effort during the war. The amount of work, money and gifts contributed by America is - 50 great that it is impossible to compute the value, the author says. Highest praise is given to Amer-| icans in London who have worked unstintingly in relieving distress among the sufféerers of the war. Among the leading Americans in Lon- don in this work is Gordon Sel- fridge, owner of one of London’s de- partment stores. The Commission for Relief in Bel- gium, formed under the auspices of influential Americans and - almost wholly conducted by Americans has thus far imported into Belgium food supplies valued at more than $50,- 000,000. The American Red Cross sdciety has sent more than seventy surgeons and 200 nurses to the battlefields of Europe as well as a sanitary com- mission. The hospitals of this or- ganization are scattered over all hos- tile areas of Europe. The American Women’s War Re- lief fund which has collected large funds for relief and organized maay hospitals is now organizing another hospital in Devon with a capacity of 250 beds. This was made possible by Dr. Paris Singer, a wealthy Amer- ican who donated the building and gave §$25,000 toward the equipment. AN ALFALFA. FIGLD, From this there hatches the adult' ‘brownish ‘ snout -beetle, which lays-eggs for the next fall. These adults-sometimes: do-as. much damage to the-second - crop of clover-ag; the young.do to-the first crop. In the late s Fing a fungous disease! sofl. should go into farming on some other occupation requiring- less merve strain. They answer questions in monosyllables as much as possible, and rarely help the perplexed ques- tioner by an intelligent account of the situation. A man in a position where he stands between the public service corporation and the public, can do a great deal of harm. The public may not suffer any great loss in dealing with him. But his attitude makes his corporation seem something un- friendly and hostile. It will preju- dice more people than more serious abuses in the way of too high rates. Many corporations, particularly during recent years, have been em- phasizing the value of little” cour- tesies. Every question is answered with the maximum of courtesy and pains are taken to make people com- fortable. The public overlooks a great many wrongs when it is at- tended to in this friendly fashion. The question with which this ar- ticle sated, as to whether telephone operators should take time for man- ners and courtesies, has often been raised. Telephone operation is ner- vous work. Every time an operator can stop for a single word of good manners, she makes the great tele- phone machine seem more human and friendly.
