Oh, she's Just a telephone girl.
You've heard this remark again and
again, perhaps asserted a bit con
temptuously. But let's give the hello girls their
due.
(No one in any community has his
finger upon the pulse of the commun
ity as has the telephone girl. She
knows about big business deal's which
are being engineered. If she tipped
the facts, someone would stand to
loso thousands, perhaps hundreds of
thousands. She Isn't making a million
dqllars a month, either. But she does
not tip the facts. '
Of course, she is not supposed to
listen in. But oh, well, she does lis
ten in. The natural curiosity of hu
man beings prompts her to listen in.
Perhaps some one in the community
is well not just what he or she
should be. Someone hides his or her
irue character well, but the tele
phone girl, 10 chances to one knows
" the inside details. '
iBut bless her heart, she doesn't
tell. But if she did, what would re
men go sult- Sno could wreck homes galore,
ir sho broadcasted tho knowledge
which comes to her over the wire.
Tho. telephone girl knows who is
sick in the community, she knows
who is-square in tho community, sho
knows who cheats in the community,
sho knows a lot about the everyday
lives of most of us.
Sho is wiser than wo give her cred
it for nrtd she's a" square shooter in
most cases because sho does not get
up on tho house tops and shout to
the worjd what she knows about tho
community.
Vhen you hear, "Oh, she's Just a
telophono girl," noxt time, consider
tnat sho is perhaps tho bost informed
norson in tho community regarding lo
cal occurrences and happenings and

A Message to the
People of Oregon
By Governor Olcott
JT IS with pleasure I take the opportunity thus
, afforded me to urge upon the people of the
state the importance of rallying afound Oregon
industries by the purchase of Oregon products.
The prosperity of all of us is very closely linked
with the prosperity of such industries. When
Oregon people invest in Oregon industries by
the simple, method of buying their products, they
are making an investment which cannot, help but
bring large returns to themselves.
I sincerely trust that this campaign to educate the
people of the state into the knowledge that the
purchase of Oregon products means a greater and
better Oregon for each and every one of us will
meet with success from the start.
