Nomethint; is the matter; somethlns ti. it prevents iiick and satisfactory service, and yet no one thus far has 1-ffn Hide to locate the source of the trouble- With the equipment now in operation fit the Mesa exchange, whenever one (.-is throii'h talkint? and hancs up the r.-irivir a polite little mechanical at tachment on the switchboard calls the operator's atteni.ion to tike fact, and the pluir is ri'tnnvcfi so that the party may once make a. second call it' desired, lint the drops do not work, and thus f ir no powers of persuasion have been a hie to make them work. The party on tile line nets through, hants up, takes down the receiver once more for a call to another person, and no answer comes from central. The reason is that the only way the operator can tell when nne is through is to listen in, and it is "wnt"'' job to listen in on several hun dred phones. If the signals would work, it would all be easy and the service would be prompt, but since the advent of warm weather, they Absolutely refuse to do ivhat they oiiRht to do. The drops Feern to hanir. and that too on one. of the most modern of sicnalins devices, with the entire equipment hut two years old.

The matter was put f. p to the Kl Paso company officials fn l they can find no solution. Then 1he problem was laid before the head quarters office at Denver, and the most efficient men in the company have W.-ied to find the cause and suggest a solution, but admit that it is the first time they ever heard of such trouble. It is believed that the difficulty is one of expansion and ennraetion of the metals, caused by the cooling system in the office, but be this as it may, the gentle public jiggles the receiver hook and thinks profane thoughts about a set of most efficient and courteous young women, who are doing their best with a plant where the Jinx is putting in his best licks Stake Presidency Makes Announcement President J. W. Lesueur of the L. D. S. church states that a number of peo ple who are not Mormons have spoken to various members of the church, ask ing if contributions from outside friends would be acceptable. While no personal solicitation of funds will be made from others than the member ship, the following notice from the stake presidency sets forth the atti tude of the church. There is no doubt but that a magnificent temple will be built in Mesa, and in the securing of such an institution, the town will have a strong leverage toward the doubling at an early date of its present popula tion. Many Mormon families of means usually seek out the cities where the temples are located, and make their homes in such places. The notice fol lows: i ;i4 Notice Regarding Mesa Temple Those desiring to make donations or pledges for the Mesa Latter Day Saints temple may hand same or mail to Les ueur's Emporium, who is the appointed collecting agent. Over $25,000 has already been paid in or pledged and but one-seventh of the families of the church membership in Maricopa county have reported. An early response to the call for pledges is desired- Personal solicitation is not being made to our friends not members of the Mormon church. Their donations and pledges are welcome and greatly appreciated and with the liberal sup port given will mean that much more. Every dollar counts for two in the erection of the temple. If we can raise $200,000 in Maricopa county, $50,000 in other Arizona districts, the church will add another $250,000 and we will have a half-million dollar building. Let us all subscribe liberally and help erect a magnificent house of the Lord. J. W. LESUEUR, O. S. STAPLEY, JOHN CUMMARD, Maricopa Stake Presidency. To Flagstaff on Business Hon. George J.

Joyful You've noticed it about tires, of course that when you blow one it's nearly always out in! the country, IS j miles from . civiliza tion, late at night, on an untraveled road. The blame thing generally goes off with a bang that jolts the sleeping birds into life ana that scares you out of ten years of growth. The worst of it is that deep down in your heart you knew the fifth tire you have been hauling around un der guise of being prepared for any and all emergencies is, in reality, an other dud! Of course there are women folks present so you can't give free and unre strained sway to your feelings all you can do is to kick up the dust and say: "Darn it'." which1, all things considered, is pretty considerab ly inadequate to tht occasion. With the impetuosity of our army mule kicking a hole in the surroundings, you jerk the fifth tire from its resting place. Tour impet uosity, however, slackens mightily, as you get down in the dust, untie the bum tire, and go through the tedious process ot adjusting the new shoe. After you've put in a couple ot years work during the next hour get ting the fifth tire on it and the busted one hoisted up to the back of your ma chine, you're finally ready to start cau tiously toward town. But, of course, it never fails in a case of this kind, after you've progressed about three-quarters of a mile bang! the fifth tire lets go like a mine explosion and rips Itself to bits all around its circum ference ! You make the rest of the trip on the rim of your car and you swear that from now on hence ward you'll always carry a fifth wheel that will be In A No. 1 'condition. But like all other autoists you never do. . o NEW MEDAL FOR AIRMEN ROME Dora Ohlfsen, designer 01 the Anrac medal has produced in her Rome studio, a new medal dedicate to the American air force.
