The principal tool or instrument behind these seerning marvels is usually found to be the telephone. Take telephone service out of our great factories, our gre8.t 0~ore0, our great expositions and conerccsc~ , ::4nd confusion will be likely to ~epl~cc the smoothness and efficiency at v;hich the visitors marvel. Studies extending over half a century have brought the telephone service in America to its present efficiency. While this is most strikingly shown in connection with big affairs and great emergencies, it is likewise to be found in the ordiq.ary service, which is at the call of any and every telephone subscriber. · ! ~ hip Scouts Take Frozen Road; I Skate Twenty-five Miles SeYcn 111 embers of Troop 1 of th e I Kenil\\'orth sco ut s, und er tiH· kackr of Scoutlllaster 1\ohc:rt \\·.
