A New Serial of Young Married Life
By ANN LISLE.
CHAPTER XXL
“Anne, Betty's been telling me about
her splendid new plan,” said Jim. "She s
going to travel about the country for
three months doing welfare work in the
camps. Isn't that great? t\ ouldn t you
love to be foot-loose, Mrs. Harrison, and
do something big like that for your gov
ernment?*’
Perversely I began to wonder if -Urn
would like to be “foot-loose.’ Every time
he met Betty Bryce I sensed in him a
certain restlessness. I hated my words
almcst as they formed in reply to Jims
question. They were catty, but they
seemed fairly to bay themselves:
"Ob. I’d feel so conspicuous traveling
around camps—alone and unebaperoned.
Mrs. Bryce laughed good-naturedly.
"Os course you would, you dear young
thing. But i'm an old stager. Two
years of driving an ambulance in France
make me feel like a big sister to every
soldier in the world."
"So that was where Betty and my boy
had come to be such friends—on the
battlefields of France! I wanted to tell
Betty how wonderful I thought she was: .
1 wanted to ask her about her work i
but I couldn't find words. Instead I j
began talking eagerly—too eagerly and
too fluently—about the great bargain i
Tom Mason had offered me.
Jim and Betty exchanged glances.
My husband spoke questiouiugly :
"Tom Mason! Where under the sun
did you meet him? Why should he rent
us two magnificently furnished rooms
for only seventy-five a month? That's —
what do you think. Betty?”
I felt humiliated. Evidently Jim
didn't think me capable of a ciever bar
gain. He doubted my judgment: he
’•disked Betty’s opinion. She leaned for
ward now eager and delighted —"fori Ing
her opinion on us again,” as I told my- i
self.
-f offer you a better bargain, my
dears! Oh, it's providential! My work
is going to keep me out of town until
Oetober. I haven't tiem to get my place
into its summer clothes or to find a
good caretaker. So here's where you
can do me a real favor. Children. I ap
point you ‘caretakers’ for Betty till she
. comes back in October —and helps you
flnd a little nest of your own."
Jim's eyes lighted, as he cried:
"Betty, you're a wonder! This is just
what we want, isn't it, Anne?
I held my voice to cold steadiness—
but I could feel the blood burning in
my cheeks.
■*l hardly sec how we can accept Mrs.
Bryce's offer dear," I said. “If Mr.
Mason's seventy-five a month looks like—
charity to you, Ivbat is an apartment
rent free? - '
There was a breathless moment—that ;
ygly word “charity” fairly exhaled I
poi=on gas. Suddenly Betty Bryce rose
and laid her hand on mine.
' I’m off children. I've an appointment

captain! So I mast rush. Don’t come.

INDIANA BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY
Telephone Toll Rates
Tour attention is again invited to the advantages and economies which may be had under our present Toll Rate Schedule.
“STATION TO STATION” RATE
When a person makes a toll call without specifying that conversation is desired with a particular person, and the con
nection Is established and conversation held, the “station to station'' rate applies.
"Station to station" rails should be made by number wherever Telephone Directory information is available. Where this
information is not available at the calling telephone, such calls may be made by giving the toll operator the name and ad
dress of the subscriber at the telephone called.
* PERSON TO PERSON ’ ’ RATE ,
When a person makes a toll call, specifying that, conversation is oesired with a particular person and the connection
is established and conversation held with that person, the "person to perron" rate applies
As this service requires a greater amount of operating c.ffort, and use of toll circuits, the rate for such calls is about
one-fourth greater than the “station to station" rate.
The "person to person" rate is computed on the day rate between tho points Involved, whether the call is made during
the day or during the night, and the minimum charge is 15c.
No “person to person" call is accepted where the “station to station” rate is less than 10c.
“REPORT CHARGE”
When a “person to person” call is made and the particular person cesired is not In or will not talk, or when an exact
telephone address of the particular person desired has not been given and he cannot be reached at a telephone within one
• hour/ a “report charge” applies.
Such a charge also applies if the calling party is absent when the connection Is completed within one hour, or if he
refused to talk.
This charge is to cover compensation for the operating work performed and use of toll circuits, and is approximately one
fourth of the “station to station” rate.
In any case where a “report charge" applies, the minimum charge is sc.
• APPOINTMENT” RATE
When the calling party is placing his call appoints a. definite specified time at which he will talk on a “person to person”
basis and the conversation is held at the specified time, the "appointment” rate applies.
The “appointment” rate is approximately one-half greater than the “station to station" rate.
The “appointment" rate is computed on the day rate between the points involved, whether the call is made during the
day or during the night, and the minimum charge is 20c.
No appointment call is accepted where the “station to station” rate is less than 10c.
“Report charges” apply under the same general conditions as specified for “person to person" calls.
“MESSENGER” CALLS
When a call is made on a “person to person" basis and a messenger is required to secure attendance of the designated
person at a public pay station at the distant, point, the “messenger call” rate applies.
This rate is the same as the "appointment” rate for the same distance, plus any charge for messenger service.
The “messenger call" rate is computed on the day rate between the points involved, whether the call is made during
the day or during the night and the minimum charge is 20c.
Messenger charges incurred are to be paid even if desired conversation is not held.
No “messenger” call is accepted where the "station to station” rate is less than 10c.
"Report charges" apply under the same general conditions as specified for “person to person" calls.
STANDARD TOLL NIGHT RATES
The following reduced rates for night service on a “station to station” basis only are effective:
8:30 p. m. to 12 midnight—about one-half of the "station to station” day rate.
12:00 midnight to 4:30 a. m. —about one-fourth of the "station to station” day rate.
For the purpose of applying night rates, the time of day at the point at which a “station to station” message originates
Is used.
The minimum night rate is 25c. Day rates apply on calls made at night when the "station to station" charge is less than the
minimum night rate.
“COLLECT” CALLS
"Collect" calls are calls for which the charges are reversed: that is. are to be collected from the subscriber at the distant
station at which the call is completed.
Such “collect” calls, or reversed charges are allowed only in connection with “person to person” calls.
EXAMPLE SHOWING HOW METHOD IS APPLIED
Assuming the air line distance between toll points to be more than 144 miles, but not more than 152 miles, the following
rates for service under the various classes offered would apply:
, Initial Period.
“Station to station” rate SI.OO
Completed “person to person" rate 1.25
Completed “appointment” rate .... v 1.50
Completed “messenger call” rate # 1.50
Plus messenger charges
® Report charge .. 25
Rate between 8:30 p. m. and 12 midnight, "station to station" service only .50
Rate between 12 midnight and 4:30 a. m. "station to station” service only 25
