In Loving Memory.
Of our dear father, James
E. Echols, who departed this
life June Ist, 1917. He was
07 years, 7 months and 25 days
old, and leaves a wife and 12
children to mourn his loss. He
was a true Christian and a true
and loving husband, and lov
ing father. He joined the
church upward of forty years
ago and lived a true Christian
life til God said ‘come ye bless
ed of my father, inherit the
kingdom prepared for you
from the foundation of the
world.
He was sick for only about
three weeks and all was done
for him that could be done by
loving hands, and in his last
breath he threw his hands up
oward heaven and shouted,
‘“Glory, hallelujah, and with
,i smile on his face, we do thank
God for that dying grace.
Father, how, we do miss thee
loving voice, and how sad it is
to give him up, but God tells
js that all things work togeth
cr for good to those who love
the Lord. And 1 will say to
mother and brothers and sisters
just to trust in the Lord and we
will meet him someday in the
sweet bye and bye where there
will be no more shedding of
tears.
Father was so good to his
hildren and always tried to
jet them to do right.
Our dear father from us is
gone,a voice we 11 hear no
more, till we meet him on the
jther shore, where we will sing
and praise God forevermore. (
He had a smile and a good
word of advise for every one
he met.
Written by his heart broken
son,
Raleigh W. Echols.

The Human Factors
In Good Service
There are three parties to every tele
phone conversation —the party calling,
the trained operator, and the party who
answers. All three share alike the respon
sibility for quick and accurate telephone
service.
The calling party should give the cor
rect number in a distinct voice, speak
ing directly into the transmitter, and
wait at the telephone until the party an
swers or the operator reports. The called
party should answer promptly.
Patience on the part of the telephone
user and the telephone operator is also es
sential to good service.
