A sweet joung woman, emplojed in

One Instance, which was reported by a

the examiners. As he left tho medical
room the smile which the demure miss
flashed at him caused him to forget war

"Were j-ou accepted?" the joung
woman asked In a very low tone.
"Saw, they turned me down and gee,
I wanted to"
"Don't worrj-, mj- friend, we made a
little mistake and j-ou'ro accepted," said
a drawling voice behind the slacker.
The jouth whirled and faced the medl

but finally began to grin

Volunteers
More than 700 employes of this organization
are now enrolled or in actual military service,
including two companies of Signal Corps Re
serves. A large portion of these volunteers are tele
phone engineers and technically trained men.
They leave gaps in our ranks not easily filled.
Their loyalty in the service of the public haa
been proven and there is not a man who would
not give the same large measure of devotion
wherever the path of duty leads.
One of our greatest problems is to readjust
our organization and at the same time to take
care of the increased telephone traffic with
as little impairment to the service as possible.
