Tho community sorvlco plan Is to solcct certain towns and cities, o art sign to oach of them a community organizer who, for a period not to ex ceed throo months, will advlso and proporly plan with a community sor vlco commlttoo an organization which will conform to tho conditions and social noeds of tho community in quostlon.

Luddon, local manager of tho Pacific Telophono & Telegraph company, announcos the completion of two now heavy coppor wire long dlstanco circuits, (four wires) be tween Klamath Falls arid Yroka, Cali fornia, via Wood, connecting at Yroka with tho main lino of tho sys tem. Tho now lines follow tho railroad rand will itako tho placo of tho old lino to tho outsldo world, which was a slnglo wiro over tho Green Springs mountain to Ashland, vory difficult and costly to maintain, especially dur ing tho wintor when tho snow Is deep on tho mountain and storms caused limbs and trocs to fall across tho lino froquently. With tho completion of the now circuits tho slogan of "universal sor vico," as used byftho tolophono com pany Is realized to tho fullest extent, said Mr. Luddon, as it Is now possi ble to talk to .faraway eastern cities and coast points with comparative oaso. Conversations with New York, Boston, Chicago and St. Louis are now posslblo and Mr. Luddon ex pects as soon as local pooplo bocomo familiar with tho convonlonco of the sorvlce that thoro will bo a big In creasd In this sort of business. Here tofore thoro havo boon a fow inter mittent calls for long dlstanco srvico of this sort, but on account of tho low talking efficiency of the line to Ashland, tho telophono company has not encouraged It. Now that tho now circuits aro In tho company is prepared to offer Klamath Falls a servlco that it has needed for a long' tlmo, says the lo cal manager. Tho faith of tho com pany In tho local territory's future Is shown by tho oxpondlturo of $66, 600 In tho installation, ho asserted. Lator, If business demands It, a third circuit, - technically known as a "phantom" can bo put Into sorvlco on tho 'same four wires, which will permit of threo conversations being hold simultaneously. Tho new circuits shorten the dls tanco to southorn points and increase tho transmission offlcloncy (clear ness of conversation) at tho samo tlmo. To northern- points tho dls tanco Is incroasod but tho transmis sion efficiency is greatly improved. The installation of tho lines was started last April and completion by August was contomplatod, but delay In securing material and shipments going astray delayed tho finish un til now.

Tomorrow is bargain day, suro onough. A glance at Monday's Hor ald bears sufficient ovldonco of that fact, for the livo merchants of tho city havo joined hands again this woek, and have made startling bargain offers which certainly will attract tho persons who" want to buy things mora cheaply than they havo beonacQjtstgmed tp since war iiiiio uuys. aui, laoy-cuu uu u, iuu Figures aro? great "argu flora," and tho figures ropresentatlvo of tho reduced prices which aro going 'to prevail horo tomorrow constitute arguments that cannot bo under mined. Of courso it's all gottlng back to tho monaco of tho mall order houso It Is a menace in every sonse of tho word, bocauso tho porson who buys from thoso establishments never gets tho best of tho bargain. Ho or sho doesn't seo the quality of the goods boforo thoy arrlvo, and It's a groat deal llko buying tho cat in tho bog. Cortalnly, the mall order housos give their patrons tho right to ro turn goods, but who wants to wait days or woeka for tho second or third shipment' when the goods, nlno times out of ten, woro needed boforo the first shipment arrlvod. Again, thoro's that old "low price" bugaboo. The merchants horo propose to demonstrate tho tact that they can sell just as choaply, and glvo better grades of goods as woll. Moro than that, it will help thorn to get acquainted with people, and tho people can get acquainted with tho stocks they, have on band, and In a word, it will bo an occasion when both morchant and buyor can bene fit mutually. At any rate, leaving all the ob vloua beneficial after-results out of consideration, it is Impossible to get away from the immediate benefits, and they- are represented by tho numbor of things, In varlouB linos, which- you can buy tomorrow by popping into ono of tho many ostab llshmonts, horo who aro offorng these bargains, and meandering to ward home again with tho things you need plus a financial saving that would not bo possible on any other day. If you haven't takon an interest In tho bargain proposition, tur nover a new leaf and take an Interest ' in it tomorrow. You'll profit;, you can't lose. Look for the placards In the windows, but before you do that, read tho two-page ad vertisement in Monday's Evening Herald. "He who runs may read," Is part of a well known saying, but it's a sure thing that "ho who reads will run," after reading the ads, provided the reader is looking for financial inducements.
