The Heart of Christmas "I fear we are going to fcave a Tory poor Christmas at our house," sold Jane tc Florence as they were wulk inS home from schoul. You know father's been out of work on account of the strike, and mother's long illness will make it next to Im possible to buy gifts for the children. And we may not even have a Christ mas tree!" And at the thought of a Christmas without a tree, ter voice w hich had been tremulous, broke luto a half stilled sob. Florence looked very thoughtful, then said In comforting tones, "But your father's at work again Isn't he?" "Yes." "And your mother's health Is much better." "Yes, we expect her downstairs for Christmas day." "Well, then I think, Jane, that you should have great cause for rejoicing at your housi? Christmas tree, or no Christmas tree." "1 had not thought of that Florence, but you are right" "Sometimes, I think we lose the real spirit of Christmas," continued Jane, -by thinking that Christinas comes from what we get or give Instead of rvnlizins that It is right In our hearts." By this time the friends had come to the parting of the way, and with a friendly nod and "Goodbye," went to heir homes to vislou anew the possi bilities of Christmas. THOS. H.

We hope the next twelve months will bring to you bountiful measure of the good things of life with material prosperity at the end, Sam Hughes Company Telephone Rates and llllllllllllllllllllllllilllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII the Decline In Prices iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii, The Telephone Company has asked its patrons in Oregon to pay more for their telephone service. It has placed the facts and figures of the situation before the Public Service Commission for their investigation and verification. The increases will not amount to much to individual subscribers, but the aggregate will permit the Company to properly maintain and develop its service. We have shown the Commission that we are operating at a loss. Our ex penses are greater than our earnings. The owners of the property are receiving nothing from their Oregon investment and the interest due on debts which should properly be borne by the Oregon properties are not being paid from Oregon receipts. At the hearing before the Public Service Commission not a fact or figure pre sented by the Company was disputed or disproved. The only material contention made was that increases were perhaps inopportune in view of the present decline in general commodity prices. The Company is asking for a reasonable return upon its existing investment, without regard to the uncertainties of the future. The Company files periodical re ports of its operations with public authorities and its future investments will be the subject of constant consideration and future adjustments, if necessary. Salaries and wages make up 72 per cent of our current expenses. We hope they will not be reduced and do not think they should be. In the five years 1916-1920 inclusive, we have increased the wages of our plant people $307,000.00. Our traffic (operating) employees $681,000.00, commer cial employees, $98,000.00, a total of $1,086,000.00 per annum. Efficient and contented employees mean good service. It is their due and our desire that their compensation be equal to that in other lines of business activity. Adequate service is dependent upon adequate rates.
