On last Monday we had the pleas
ure of wasting almost an entire day
trying to get a telephone message to
Portland. . We put In a call at about 9
a. m. and waited in the telephone off
Ice until about 1 1 o'clock and the ope
rator here repeatedly called Arlington
In an effort to get the call through.
Finally we were promised the line , at
1 o'clock and then again at 2 o'clock
and after waiting until 3 o'clock we
were compelled to withdraw our call
Arlington Informed the operator here
that the line was busy and it would be
hard to tell when we could get our call
through. How long will the people ' of
this valley be contented with the pres
ent system and be satisfied in having
to await the will and pleasure of the
Arlington operators to get our mess
ages through. An independent line
would make a great difference in the
present service.

putians will give an entertainment in

The numbers of their program are so
varied In character and so artistically
presented that there Is not a dull mo
ment from the beginning to ' the end.
The children are delighted; everybody
Is Instructed and amused.
Aside from the literary and artistic
merit of the entertainment, the modest
and charming personality of the Ad
ams Sisters makes them favorites
wherever they go. The two little la
dies, only 46 and 49 Inches In height
