"Yes, Mary ... and Tom's fine, too."
Ohl Mrs. Watson lives with her son
Tom, Yet her only daughter Mary,
miles away, is with her too, for Mary,
though old-fashioned in many ways, is
definitely telephone minded and never
fails to call her Mother on Long Distance
at least once a week — an inexpensive
and supreme pleasure for both of them.
As Tom Watson puts it, "though
our family's scattered, we're never
really far apart — with the telephone."
Are you acquainted with the
com f ort, convenience and
low cost of Long Distance?

sddered high, .and it is explained
that "eaeli was given an opportunity
to modify his Lender,' the result be-
ing that the lowest figure was $775
and the high=ee` $1,100. We learn
that these offers were still consid-
ered too high and tender were
again invited, and the third time the
low mark was placed at $650 and
the high. mark remained at $1,100.
The actual rtsuet was that the
it::w parr, had been driven from $300
to $775 and then dtnm to $650. The
htgb mark malcee little difference
because the person with a fairly
high tender wile never have a
chance tie secure a contract,
We doulet if that same system is
followed in government contracts in
genteel, nor was the remit a great
toecete in this ease. After calling
for tenders three times in a period
which extended from April to
August the net result was ,hat the
low tender had been reduced from,
$300 to $650, while in each case
there were men elating by their
tender, that they considered the
mail route should be worth well
When do people start spending
money? The aliewer to that is easy.
They spend when they have money
and when: they ire fairly certain
there Is going to be some more
coming in. People in the city do
time and to do the people in the
country. When they fetal a de.
pression, coating and whet[ they
find their Dash Pewee shrinking
they de not speed. Even if they
had been saving during the good
yralm .they would hesitate about
making ittreads on their reserves,
and they would give ns the reason
that they did not know how long
tote deprcission was galiig -to last.
'I'lte element at fear comes in and
Met has a good deal to do with dic-
tating many of our actions, So if
fainn•on_e tllid spend too much during
,time when money was more plenti-
ful than it has been for Chem in re-
cent years -they were dieing what all
the resit of us were doing. It was
merely a case of Putman nature be-
