The Bell System accepts its responsibility for a nation-wide telephone service as a public trust. It is the policy of the System to use.all income, beyond that necessary to pay. regular dividends and maintain a surplus for financial stability, to improve and extend the service. Because of the nature of the business, specu* lative profits have no place in it. The Bell System maintains in its research, engineering and business staflfil and in the Bell Laboratories 5000 workers--in a total of350,000 employees-- whose sole occupation is to improve the telephone art and to make these improvements instantly available throughout the nation. These workers are a guaranty of continued progress in furnishing the public a constantly improving telephone scrvicc at the lowest possible cost. i Edna Mann and Milton Dowell were cepted as read.

He was driving to the home of his sister's family near Harvard, and had followed the direct cenaent road from Woodstock to Harvard as far as he could and turnej off on a dirt road. When near the cemetery, where his sister is buried, he struck some fresh gravel that was not spread. Just a load dumped in a place and not Spread like they do in McHenry township. The big bunch turned his car to one side and in trying to get it back in place he wrenched his back badly. He managed to get the car righted undamaged and no tip over, but his back was so badly injured he could not walk. He was carried into his nephew's house and a doctor was called. At this writing h# is slowly recovering. _ Myron Francisco of Wauconda hal made frequent calls at the Francisco farm here, painting and getting tht house ready for the renter next March. There is still a number of very ignotrant people around the country. Thejr seem to think that any fruit or nut» or anything they can get at is theirs, no matter where it is. One farmer invited two to leave his walnuts alone. They went away and later on in the day two more came and wer® invited to leave but Mfoujd not. Said they had a right to them because they were outside the fence. Anyone that buys a farm pays for the land to the middle of the road and anything growing thereon is theirs, same as inside the fence. t . Mr. Benwell filled his silo, las® week, and a filler is now at C. B. Jeck's. The corn is badly frostbitten, but fanners have worked hard ever since threshing was done trying to get silos filled before it was injured by frost, but frost came with a vengeance and did its work.
