TELEPHONE SERVICE Complaints arc multiplying thai the telephone service is slow ing up to a degree most noticeable ' A business man .said today:. "I take down' the receiver and at times wait longer for a re sponse than would be necessary to call on the party wanted. " During the war. and then the influenza epidemic, the telephone officials had a plausible excuse for the slower service. But, what ails horn today" . Seemingly the company is attempting to handle too much busi ness with a reduced force. ' . Just a little speeding up, please, or many mild mannered citi , vens av'iII lose their patience. I ! STRIKE OF SWITCHMEN . When the switchmen in the Ugden yards walkoif out at 7 o'clock last evenine, the men gathered at the entrances to the -subway and. nt a given si crfal, streamed out of the depot in a body, making no demonstration and proceeding, without a moment's delay, away from railroad properly. . . I Whatever may be the merits or dements of the side of the strik ers, the conduct of the men is above reproach. It is wisdom on the part of. the strikers to pursue a highly hon ' Arable course and so direct their protest As to hold the respect not onlv of the public but of their employers. I FRENCH TROOPS IN GERMANY 1 With French troops penetrating deeper into German territory, the bitterness between the French and Hermans must increase, and once more the seeds of war be sown. "When Bismarck, in the days of German triumph, tore Alsace " Lorraine from the side of France, the Iron Chancellor failed to see that he was embittering an entire nation and eventually the wrong inflicted would react. For over 40 years Freuehmen never for a day forgot the unjustifiable harshness of Bismarck, and now, half a cen turv removed from the first serious offending, the French must act wisely and with forbearance, or they will create another cause of There is no doubt the Germans must be watched as they have been treacherous in the past, but distrust must not go so far as to : blind the French to exact justice. England is far, more cautious than France and has declined to do the extremclv radical thing in curbing German indiscretions. British troops arc holding to the lines fixed in the armistice and British T statesmen are counseling against drastic punishments. 1 The one great aim in Europe today should be away irom war J : and back to the amities of peace. Thevar-stricken people of that I part of the world should be relieved as early as possible from the I' horrors of a conflict which has shaken the foundations of civilization. HOW CITIES GROW Coming back from Iiddletown, Ohio. Gus Saunders said his old home citv was doing wonders in upbuilding. In a ten-day drive $1,000,000 was raised. This is remarkable for a city not as large as Ogdcn. . . , i p Mr. Saunders has presented Mayor Francis with a number ot booklets, setting forth Middlctown Js purpose in making the drive and the Mayor now is wondering if tfgden can do, even in a small way, what the Ohio city has done. . j? "The most impressive part of Middlctown's campaign, says Mayor -Francis, "is that part of the funds were raised for the avow ed object of helping the city of Middlctown to do its full share m community improvements. Here is the purpose of the drive: Provide for necessary additions to the Middletown hospital. Assist the board of education in increasing the salaries of the teachers of the public schools. Extend the present system of parks and playgrounds. ' Provide a fund for the Middlctown Public Library. Erect a Coommunity Memorial building, dedicated to sol diers, sailors and marines of the world war. Provide permanent quarters in the community building for the local post of the American Legion. Construct and equip a new Y. M. C. A. building. Give the city commission such financial assistance as that body may need for the conduct of its affairs, pending the propos ed remedial legislation affecting taxation. Provide funds for such other activities respecting the com munity development as the civic campaign committee may here after determine. All the highly progressive communities of the country arc doing big things in this way. The" Lord -helps those who help themselves, and a city to grow must demonstrate its worth by keeping abreast of the tinvs. I IMPROVING A STREET Properly owners on Thirtieth street, west of Lincoln avenue, arc petitioning the city officials to park the center of the street There is a margin of sixteen feet which, under the present plans of paving, will not be covered, and, instead o'f leaving a stretch of iight feet on each side of the street, the people of that district prefer o sec this surplus land placed in the middle of the paving, and beautified by parking. The petition of the property owners should be granted. There nas not been as much parking of Ogdcn 's very wide streets as there should have been and very little effort at making Che city more beau tiful by touches of the artistic has been made. On lower Thirtieth street the Spcrry Flour company is to park much of its vacant property, set aside lawn tennis courts and in oth er ways make the district, attractive. With the Spcrry land improved in that manner, with Thirtieth itreet paved and the center of the highway parked, that end of the Mty will become one of the most dcsirublc residence districts, and :hc driveway will be on the night-seeing map of Ogdcn.

REVOKE LICENSE I If LfflVBROKEH: ! Commissioner Ward An-! nounces City's New Policy Dealing With Hotel Men j j A new policy In meting out punish-j ment to proprietors of rooming houses find hotels of Ogdcn who violate the .law In rcgand to the sale of liquor on. I their premises or other violations will! imean thatlicenses will be revokod In I the future Instead of the usual penalty of a fine, according to J. Itay Ward,' commissioner of public safety. Mr. Ward said today that the revoking of the license of L. Laner, proprietor of the Alpine hotel on Twenty-fifth street by the city commissioners marks the placing in effect of the new policy and that similar action will follow where violations are discovered in the future. "Experience has taught us that to exact a small fine as a penalty for rooming house violations is inadequate and that it docs not accomplish the purpose which we seek, that of climi nallng practices, or liquor Hales and other violations, in the futuro a close watch will be kept by our investigat ors and following the gathering of evi dence which shows conclush ciy that the law is being broken, the evidenco will be presented to thp city commis sion with recommendation that the licenses of the offenders be revoked Immediately." oo Arrested Mexican Planned Revolution MKX1CAU.

Rippling Rhymes By WAuf MASON. I FIGHTING H. C. L. We've talked a lot about the Cost; no opportunities we've lost (o make a few remarks; we've told how wc have felt the pinch, and called for hempen ropes to lynch tho profiteer ing sharks. Now comes the gentle spring again, when earnest, sane and thoughtful men will cease to rend their duda, quit yawping by thp vil lage pound, and spade up fourteen rods of ground, and plant a lot of spuds. A garden full of useful greens, ot sparrowgrass and Lima beans, is much to be desired; a garden where tho squashes thrive and beets are seen in blocks of five, will mako the Cost look tired. A bed of onions by the fence Is better evidence of sense than many trcn.lcd yawps; and noth ing finer Is In sight than is the gar dener's delight, when harvesting crops. The country's full of fertilo earth; all kinds of soil, of sterling worth, is strewn around our shacks; and In that soil let'H plant some peas and ttrussels sprouts and things like these, and thus get down to tacks. When to their gardens men repair, and gather carrots red and fine and tur nips full of wholesome Juice, and cab bagcheads thai beat the deuce, the Cost takes in its sign. GERMAN TROOPS' TO ENTER OH WASHINGTON, April 9.-So far a. ' can he learned here, state department action In regard to the Ruhr Incident has been confined to an expression of opinion to the effect that the German government should be permitted to send into the Ruhr valley any reason ablo number of troops necessary to restore order in that section and to maintain its supremacy. This position was clearly stated by the department about ten days ago in answer to an Inquiry from the German government as to the willingness of the entente powers and America to allow such a force to go into the dis turbed country. The French go;ern ment Avas fully informed of the Ameri can position and so far as can be learned, while there have been somo "conversations" on the subject be tween Ambassador Wallace and Pre mier Millcrand at Paris, there has been no change in the position of the United States. The American view has been that tho whole Issue turns upon the ques tion or fact as to the extent of the! disorder in the Ruhr district and thc ability of the Ebert government to maintain Its control there with tho small force of gendarmerie permitted by the terms of the armistice and peace treaty. In the course of the "conversations" between Ambassador Wallace and the French foreign of ficc. it Is understood that the latter set out as the French view that no conditions existed In the valley to jus tify the entry of a large force of Ger man regular troops which, in fact, was calculated to add to the disorder. French Government Apprehensive. Moreover, the French government was very apprehensive that, in their desperation, the red forces in the Ruhr valley would effect permanent injury upon the coal mines from which tho French expected to draw heavily for several years. Ambassador Jusserand called at the state department Wednesday, pre sumably to reinforce the statement which Premier Millerand hnd made to Ambassador Wallace. No announce ment has been made as to the result of this conference, but it is understood that so far there has been no change , in the attitude of the state department I Ma Never f J Says to Me I I dorit eat too! many vVl 1 POST "if TOASTIES I cause' she knows "fchatk 1 one good thinjS "that doriJ 1 I ioiherja kidsj tummy. n 1 -3f ' A M 2 Get . acquainted with the wosl exclusive Candy Shop in Qgdeii where Good Chocolates can be ob- JJ M m ; x m M - Wo carry Sweet's entire line of High Grade Pack- )K M age Chocolates with a large variety to choose from. )gf M In fact, all the kinds you like the best. )K I P.
