WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 15, 1917. LA GRANDE EVENING OBSERVER. PAGE t; SEED i i Central" Appreciates Your Kindness There are three operators concerned in every telephone call you, the party yon are talking to and "central." All three parties must co-operate if the best ser vice is to be had. The telephone operators are human, just as you are. Being human, they appreciate kindness and cour tesy, but resent unkindness and discourtesy Just as any of us do. Kindness begets kindness, courtesy creates cour tesy and patience encourages patience. If you wish to get the best out of your tele phone, make it a point to be kind and courteous to the operators. . .
