-TELEPHONE IMPROVEMENTS. ___0n Sunday last the new switch-| board in the Suninierside telephone' exchange was put in operation for the first time and it will be a most _de- cided iniprovement over the previous one./i‘lie work of iiistalling the new telephones in connection with this, board is now uiidcr way and when this work is completed Summerslde will have a telephone service equal to if not better than any town or city in the maritime provinces, the work of in- stalling the new board was done under l the direction of Fred Edmunds of the‘ Mariiium. 'i‘. and T. eos. staff, Halifax- This switch board is the latest im- proved central battery type. and is OD' eraled by eleven cells of storage bat- tery. Also all subscribers’ telephones will receive their battery supply from* this some storage battery. This will be ii decided iinproveuient over the systcin of individual dry batteries in each telephone, in ns niucli ns hereto- fore when the dry batteries were used for a time they becaine weak and thc traiisinissioii was poor until a new set oi' batteries were installed. Under the pi'eseiit_system a uiiiforni storage bat- tery supply is maintained at the cen- tral olliee, and each telephone receives exactly the same amount ol' current ut all times. The central office switchboard is equipped with "

each subscriber's line and the act equipped with small signal lights. one for each subscribers line and the act of removing the receiver from the] hook is the same as turning on a switch and lights the signal lamp in the switchboard. This light remains burning until the operator answers and is called the line signal. After the operator answers and a connec- tion has been established there are two additional lights. one for each party talking on any couuec.tioi\,\vliich show automatically whether or not thc party’s have answered. When a connection is put up one of these lights will remain burning until the called party answers, this does away with Ilie necessity of the operator coining on the line and asking “Have they answered '."' When the culled pnr-l t_v iiiisvri-.i~s the light goes out.. After the coiiversutioii" is linislied and both parties hang up their receivers ‘wth lights r'~uic on und llillicut-: to| thc opcrutor that the coiiv~:rsa|.imi is ilnishod and that both parties have_

Sulilcient cur- rent can be stored up in one charge to run the switchboard and all tele- phones [or a week or ten days so that they will require to be recharged at intervals. The people of Summer- ‘side are cordially invited to visit the central office and Mr. Wm. Forsythe the superintendent will be glad to ex- plain the operation of the _switch-

in the interest of humanity was known throughout the Province and greatly admired. Before giving a synopsis of the Reverend Doctor’.s lecture it is well to remark that he a year ago on the same platform In the Interest of the Red Cross Society gave a similar lecture and on that occasion those who had the plea-sure to listen to his very interesting talk were in evidence on ‘this occasion. Speaking extemporane- ous this well known orator dwelt at length on the origin of the Red Cross .Society telling his audience that it had its first start at Geneva, Switzerland, at the hands of Clara Barton- an American Woman and her followers In the year 1864 and that ever since Red Cross work has been known and respected the world over. He also gave ii graphis description of the first contingent of Red Crosa\Doctors and nilraes who volunteered at the out- break of the war and out of that great body of patriotic men and women who worked for humaniI.y‘s aake In the thickest of the war that befell theni, ‘through fever. filth, hardship and be- ing killed on the battle field.

present the sight of a child there be-‘ tween the age of one to four years would be a novelty for reason that nearly all of the children have during the last six months died of starvation. Next, the Reverend Speaker, spoke at length on the great work the women of France, Belgium and Russia were doing wihlle their men folks were fighting in the trenches. He cited the women of France in particular who had worked their farms and vineyards this y-ear just as successful as the year before, and realizing this noble work on their part the speaker told his bearers that the women of Canada while not call- ed ,to do as these women had done. they had also a duty to perform and that duty was to encourage heir sons to enlist and iight for their Country and King besides furnishing at their hands such as socks they were needed so badly by the soldiers at Iihe front. From this the Speaker spoke at length on the question of enlisting- and by his masterful way in handling this Important subject it is a forgone con- clusion that many young men will rally tothe colors ln the near future. After giving a picturesque history
