He Thanks God the Editors of Supce: TONr Sirs: Tie just completed reading the Icpce of August 29 issue and especially the “Judge for Yourself” editorial. I am heartily in favor of Mr. H. G. Talbert’s views, and if you want to “poke” “fun at those who seek by legis- lation or terrorism to impose their religious beliefs on others” you have the privilege as long as it is a joke; Bat I would suggest you to look at Herrin, Ill., Niles, O. and Massachusetts and see who is forcing their religion and terrorism any mhore than the Knights of Columbus or the Knights of the Flaming Circle? You can joke, knock, insult and abuse the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan which was here | “Yesterday, to-day and forever,” “Not for yourself but for others,” and enjoy it, but thank God I am a free born, white gentile American Protestant whose motto is God, “country and home” not the “pope, convent and then God.” | Respectfully, Clarence W. Yergan Cumberland, Md. tember 2, 1925. . . §.: I would like to see this under the heading Judge for Yourself but I don’t expect to. The Wrong Doctor To the Editors of Juvce: . I see by your last issue that the eminent Dr. Davenport has withdrawn his chiropractic support of Jupce to throw his weight and dollar over to fifteen business men, because they cannot find any jokes in Jupce. ‘ou have the doctor's home address so please convey my impression that he is their wrong doctor. ey need an optometrist, not a chiro- Practor. Jopee is certainly just full of what I need after a hard successful day in the selling trenches and while I haven't the time to wade through all of the fine editorials of all our leading papers, I wouldn't omit Jupce’s editorial section from my selection of the best. Glad the crosswords are coming back for they surely help many Knights of the Road forget other cross words, and your Krazy Kracks shed a fine light on the elasticity of hasty pronun Did Dr. Davenport read the K.

Freitag Meriden, Conn., September 3, 1925, So This Is Progress! To the Editors of Jupar: Have just read Dr. S. C. Davenport's letter in September 5 edition of Jupce. 1 have enjoyed itamnetaely. W. M. H.'s editorials and in the main wit Dr. Davenport calls W. M. H. agree I. “anti everything progressive and good.” To wit, the Eightee suppose, tl nth Amendment, among others. If Dr. Davenport considers a thing that has cost the Government millions lost in revenue, and millions more in attempted enforcement, iroeresive, he is indeed deducing peculiar. con- clusions; and as Prohibition has started the youth of America (the men and women of to- morrow) drinking, how can it be good? As to Jupae being a disgrace to the Constitution, may I ask if the doctor bas ever read a very extinct paper called the Declaration of Inde- pendence, by Thomas Jefferson? But let's keep the country as free as possible, every one to his own opinion. Sie semper, etc. I am sorry that Jupge is to continue Crossword Puzzles as ‘they are so old-fashioned, but what must, must. I did not see the High Hat section. Hope you have not discontinued the best and most modern part of Jupoe.

The telephone system never rests, yet the ramifications of its wires, the reach of its cables and the terminals on its switch- boards must ever increase. Like an airplane that has started on a journey across the sea, the telephone must repair and extend itself while work is going on. To cut communication for a single moment would interrupt the endless stream of calls and jeopardize the well-being and safety of the community. The doctor or police must be called. Fire may break out. Numberless important business and social arrangements must be made. Even when a new exchange is built and put into use, service is not interrupted. Conversations started through the old are cut over and finished through the new, the talkers unconscious that growth has taken place while the service continues. Since 1880 the Bell System has grown from 31 thousand to 16 million stations, while talking was going on. In the last five years, additions costing a billion dollars have been made to the system, without interrupting the service.
