The state ment that "perfectly clean sleeping car.s are operated between Moscow ;and PetroKrad und between Moscow :and liipu," .has also lot its novelty. 1 Correspondents who have been lis jteitiiiK for two years to the tales of 'visitors to 'Russia, who have spent !a few days in the great Russian cities, know exactly what most of them will say. If they disclosed their sympathy with Bolshevism be fore they entered, they generally come out with words of hi;h praise. If they were critical before they went in, they are KMie':i"y more, critical when they come out. In other words, the week-enders in Russia generally have their minds made up before they pro in, and their statements on eniei'ginjr are about as monotonous as oft--repeat- cd phonograph rolls. v Of course, there are many visit ors to Russia who remain there for a considerable time and ive thought ami study to the situation. These usually have little to,, say when they ro in and less when they come out. The Telephone Directory Good telephone service depends vit!ly upon care in (jailing telephone numbers. A wrong number called causes loss of time to you, to the party called and to the operator. It is not the loss of time to you alone or to the oper ator that concerns us most, but it is the annoyance to the party called. Your mistake cannot be explained to him, and the Telephone Company is held responsible for your error. Consulting the current issue of the telephone direc toiy, instead of trusting to memory; giving your num ber clearly, and quickly correcting the operator if she misunderstands your call, will greatly increase the effi ciency of the service.
