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.
