(By JOHN B. O'BRIEN) The Voice with the Smile—Why is it that this phrase has become associated almost exclusively with the telephone operator in America? Perhaps it is because she has more to smile about. In no other country has telephone service been developed to the extent that it has in the United States. In no other land is the public more appreciative of its service or more courteous in its relations to the operator. The United States has 63 per cent of the world's telephones. It has the most comprehensive system in existence, and the equipment is a model for all others in every nation of the globe. The telephone, born in America and gradually developed in this country, is essentially an American invention, but without a public to use it and to demand greater facilities the efforts of Alexander Graham Bell and Thomas A. Watson and the engineers who followed them might have proved of small avail. The American public, however, has learned to use the telephone with greater freedom and ease than do the people of other nations, with the result that the telephone has become in this country an important and necessary part of our business and social life. The telephone girl, therefore, is a vital factor in our everyday existence. Telephone operators the world over are noted for their courtesy, and especially is this true of the American telephone girl. In many other countries the operator is just a government clerk, and in no large country is the number of calls per person so high as in the United States. It is much more difficult to be courteous under such circumstances, but in the Bell system it has been found that as a rule the most courteous girls are the most efficient, which possibly helps to account for the greater efficiency of the American service. The outstanding characteristics of the American telephone operator are her good health, her happy disposition, her faithfulness and her willingness to face real danger in times of emergencies, such as fires, floods, etc. In England a telephone girl is not an operator. She is a "telephonist." The long distance operators in London, because of the many communications with the continent, not only are required to speak both French and English, but must know the former language sufficiently well to be able to understand it over telephone wires, which is no small feat. In fact, French is the official language of the Paris-London line. Recently, in order to increase their efficiency in routing long distance calls, London and Paris have inaugurated a scheme of exchanging telephone girls in relays for periods of two weeks in each city. The English girls work in the French central offices, and at the same time the French operators are employed at the London end of the wire on the long distance lines, thus giving both a working knowledge of the two exchanges and the methodos routing calls in addition to cementing a personal "entente cordiale." In Great Britain the line is never "busy"; rather, "the number is engaged." Another English expression used by the telephonists which sounds strange to American cars is "You're through," which means that you can begin to talk, being the equivalent of the American "Here's your party." This same practice is common in New Zealand and Australia. When the American telephone girl answers your signal, she inquires in a smiling voice with rising inflection, "Number, please?" In France the operator announces herself with, "J-e-coute," which means "I'm listening." In Germany she says, "Here's the exchange," in Norway, either "Central" or simply "Yes." is a practice we use using a Swedish time.

Week's Best Good Turn Hurling themselves in front of a runaway team dragging a loaded ice wagon, Salt Lake City Scouts swerved the maddened horses and narrowly averted a terrific impact with a passing street car. The feat of the Scouts was observed by Patrolman W. C. A. Smoot, who remarked that the "effort took considerable bravery and daring." The runaway team was noticed by the boys one recent day as they were assembled in a city park. Here they were awaiting a truck to take them up Mill Creek canyon, where, it was planned they were to repair the road to the Scout camp. "Suddenly, the boys, armed with shovels, ran into the street and confronted the runaway team," stated the witness. "They waved their arms and their shovels. Faced with that squad, the horses turned to the west, crashed into a steel telegraph pole, wrecked the wagon and injured themselves. The boys' bravery was a real evidence of Scoutcraft training. I do not doubt but what the horses would have smashed into the street car with their 3500 pounds of ice." A Near Fatality "A close call and near fatality." This was the description of a recent hair-breadth escape from death of a 5-year-old girl. While Scout Joseph Mazzo of Schenectady, N. Y., was talking with some boy friends on a-roadside, he noticed several little children who, with no thought of danger, kept darting back and forth across the road. Mazzo saw the need of looking out for the heedless ones and kept vigilant watch. Suddenly an automobile bore down the road at high speed. Just as the Scout sensed the danger one of the children started out into the path of the oncoming car. To avoid hitting the child the driver would have been obliged to jump the road. Mazzo, realizing the peril, rushed to the tiny girl, gripped the muslin dress firmly and jerked the child to safety." SENATORIAL ELECTIONS A national G. O. P. call to arms for the senatorial elections of 1926 was sounded recently by United States Senator Charles S. Deneen of Illinois in an address at the mid-summer outing of the Essex County Republican Club, in Massachusetts. Deneen's address, which reviewed the record of the Coolidge administration and closed with the statement "that it becomes a matter of the highest importance for the Republican party to prepare for the struggle," assumed additional significance as President Coolidge and Senator Butler, Massachusetts, chairman of the National Republican committee, were special guests of the club. "I call your attention to the political situation only as it relates to the election of senators," Deneen said. "There are 32 senators to be elected in addition to the vacancies occasioned by the deaths of Senator La Follette and Senator Ladd. Seven of them are Democrats, all of whom represent states where the nomination is equivalent to election. In those states, there will be no debate as to the principles which divide the great political parties, and the results in them even now." by millions and prescribed by physicians 24 years ago.

"There are 24 outgoing Republican senators," Deneen continued. "The campaign will be waged in the states they represent and, in view of the campaign FREE Think back through your life.

This New Zea-phone girl lives in a inflection, the op-ith, "J-listening" as the ex-Central" or simply "Yes," while in Sweden there is a practice which is often the cause of some perplexity to the foreigner using a Swedish telephone for the first time. On lifting the receiver from the hook, the first thing he hears may be merely a number—for example, "Thirty-nine." However, this is not a telephone number, but is simply the number of the operator who is answering the call. In some parts of Sweden the operators follow the practice common in Belgium, which is to mention the exchange name as the equivalent of "Number, please." Outside of the English-speaking nations and Switzerland, however, the equivalent of "please" is seldom heard. The telephone girl of Japan is known as the Moshi Moshi girl, the term moshi being the Japanese equivalent for "hello." Usually she is very young, often being not more than 14 years of age. All Japanese telephone operators in the city of Tokyo are required to wear a uniform costume which consists of a skirt called a "hakama," which is worn over a working kimono of coarse, white cloth. The sleeves are not as full as those of the ordinary kimono and are tied with a cord just below the elbow so as to prevent them from interfering with the movements of the operator's hands. The "hakama" has a sash tied in front. The attire is completed by a pair of white cloth footcovers and straw sandals. They wear no stockings. While the Japanese operators are very young girls, quite the reverse conditions prevail on the island of Cuba. There, widows with grown daughters are given the preference. Usually the telephone exchange is located in a dwelling house where the widow is installed as manager and the daughters become the operators. Outside of the city of Havana there is more or less of a prejudice against girls going to business, so that by having the telephone exchange installed in a private home the old Spanish traditions may be maintained, while, at the same time, the fatherless family is enabled to earn a good living. Only in San Francisco—in the famous Chinatown exchange—in this country are telephone operators required to be able to speak more than one language, but in certain parts of the globe, to be a telephone operator, a girl must also be an accomplished linguist. In Bombay, which is filled with the sounds of many tongues, the operators who handle the telephone traffic are expected to speak not only their own native language, but, in addition, English, French, Japanese, Chinese and Arabic. In Cairo the telephone girls must know not only their own language, but French, English, Greek and Italian as well—five in all. Throughout the Far East, operators usually must have at their command at least one foreign language besides their own. In many large cities of the Far East, where so many different languages and dialects are spoken as to cause serious difficulty in the use of the telephone, the problem is being solved by the automatic or machine switching telephone service. Whether it be in far oll Abyssinia, where the operator in his hut under the eucalyptus trees not only makes all the connections, but also does all the talking, or in the land of the Mikado, in Europe or in our own United States, telephone operators all over the world have one attribute in common—they serve the public. And, everything considered, they serve it remarkably well. PROGRESS Two recent developments have focused public attention on Graham Brothers Trucks as never before. One was the sweeping price reductions of May 15th, ranging from $80 to $160. The other was Graham Brothers ascendancy to leadership by building more 1½-ton trucks than any other manufacturer in the world, during the first quarter of 1925, and by achieving second position in the 1-ton and 1½-ton fields combined. Progress such as this deserves public attention—and eliminates all doubt as to the logical truck to buy! 1-Ton Chassis, $1280; 1½-Ton Chassis, $1560; Delivered CHAS. H.

GIVE THEM A JUST WAGE Certain employees of the municipal government are of the opinion that they have been underpaid for their services during the past few years. It is asserted that Anaheim pays less for the class of work they perform than any of the neighboring cities, and it is hinted that some of them will go elsewhere unless the board sees fit to raise their pay to the standard prevailing in other cities, which is commensurate with the high cost of living. No man in Anaheim will raise an objection if the trustees see fit to give these men a decent wage for their arduous labor. They earn it and should have it. FREE X-RAY A FALL? Through your life.
