Eating Your Cake
You arc no doubt familiar
with the old saying: "You can
not have your cake and eat it,
too."
We say you can. The man
who invested interest solved
that problem. Money in a sav
ings account, money at inter
est, remains yours, yet earns
more money for you right
along. Money spent, is like
eating the cake. Money on de
posit in a reliable Bank, like
ours, grows so that you have its
earnngs to spend and do not
need to spend the principal.
Are your valuable papers
safe from Are or theft. If
not we have just the kind
of place you need for then. -

Scarcity of Telephone Equipment
Himiiiiiiimiiiiii.
As new subscribers a numbers of individuals have recently placed orders with us
for telephones. Old subscribers have asked for service at new locations. They have
been told by our representatives that immediate compliance with their desires was
impossible owing to lack of "telephone facilities" in a particular locality. "Why."
one will say, "The poles and wires are on the street and the house is already wired."
We wish that the problem were as simple as it sounds. There may be poles and
wires, but every wire may be in use in giving service to others. There may be a cable
but every circuit in it may be assigned to telephones already installed. There may be
spare wires and circuits but no switchboard apparatus at the central office to which
they can be connected. There may even be sections of switchboard but not available
for operation on account of the lack of necessary accessories such as ringing keys,
relays, etc.
i
The reason for the shortage of telephone equipment is simple. During the war
period we were unable to maintain our reserve stock plant aa the same materials we
use were required and taken for Government purposes and for industries properly
favored by the Government. Since the war, with the unexpectedly prolonged prob
lems of reconstruction, production and delivery of materials needed to meet even
current demand have been delayed. Every business concern is having similar ex
periences. The manufacturers of telephone equipment have been bending every
effort to fill our orders, but they in turn are meeting the same difficulties in securing
rubber, paper, silk, glass, porcelain, tin, thread, shellac, metal parts, and other articles
not generally associated in the public mind with telephone service.
At the same time with this abnormal situation with reference to materials there
exists an unprecedented demand for telephone service, and even under these circum
stances our record is one of fulfillment of demand. In the first eight months of this
year we have added 6863 telephones in the State of Oregon. In the eight months
prior to our declaration of war we gained 2655 telephones.
We desire to give service as much as a patron wishes to receive it. We desire to
promptly comply with the suggestions of public authorities who have taken a proper
interest in the situation. We are facing abnormal conditions but we will of neces
sity gradually overcome our difficulties.
