The Report Charge Is Made
tor A Service Rendered
EPORT charges are only made under certain conditions on person to
R person long distance calls (which include appointment and messen
ger calls), and then only in cases where the telephone company has
performed for you a real service in the use of its lines and operators.
When you give a messenger instructions to deliver a message across town
to a particular person and to bring you an answer and the messenger carries
out your instructions but reports that the party was absent frem:
-~ the address given and could not be located, what do you do?
P You pay the messenger a fee for the service he rendered.
) ) When you ask the telephone company to locate a person in
a o} a distant city for you and it connects with the given address
Re but the person is not there and it so reports to you, it has done
| all it could. It used its agencies fully but it could not control
3 the whereabouts of the person whom you desired to reach. It
& has done what the messenger did. It employed its wires and
A effort was expended by its employes to perform the service re-
N ¢ quested by you, and for this service a charge is made.
Koo This is the report charge.
The telephone company does not charge for all reports.
No charge is made for reports of “busy,” “out of order,” or “don't
answer.”
Unless the company succeeds in reaching the designated station and re
ports to the calling station within one hour after the call is made, there is no
report charge. '
Regardless of the number of reports made on a call for a particular party
at a particular address, only one report charge, when applicable, is made.
If the call is completed any time during the day filed, all charges for re
ports are cancelled.
If there 1s anything about our rates and practices you don't understand,
call the local manager and he will be glad to explain the whole schedule
to you.
Or, if you are billed at any time with charges in conflict with the above
rules, take the matter up with the local manager. He will gladly and prompt
ly correct the mistake.
We believe that the willingness to correct error, inevitable in all enters
prises using human agencies, is one of the prime elements of public services

JOHN HOLDER'S RECORD SHOWS
"HBLTY O SERVE TH PEDPL
Atlanta, July 27.—When Georgia's
voters select the state's next governor
on September 8, they will first con
sider ability tc conduct the office and
to serve the state.
John Holder's record in state serv
fce and in the judgment which others,
well qualified to judge, have placed
upon it, leaves no doubt as to his ca
pability. What he has done for Geor
gla, he has dome well; others who
have noted it, have said 8o In no un
certain terms. His wide knpowledge
of Georgia conditions and Georgia's
needs, can be put to advantageous and
valuable use in the govermor's office,
Mr, Holder has clearly stated that
he is not making this race on the de
merits of his opppnents, but upon his
own record of service; and it is this
record we propose to put clearly be
fore the people of Georgia. .
What Others Say of Him.
In the first place, here are a few
comments from those who have ob
served apd indorsed the record of John
Holder as speaker of the house and
in bis other legislative service:
Atlanta Constitution: ‘“The house
never had a better presiding oficer . ..
all of its members united® in paying
tribute to the impartiality of the speak
er and in recognition of his extraor
dinary ability as a presiding officer.”
Albany Heraid: “We like Mr. Hol
der’s platform,” because “it is straight
forward and free from demagogism.”
Lyons Progress: “Georgia would
make no mistake in electing Mr. Hol
der ag its next governor.”
Judge John F. Stone of Cairo, in a
letter in The Covington News: “The
proper thing to do is to elect John N.
Holder gevernor. He is the available
man.”
Deserves Well of Georgia.
Editor James B. Nevin in the Atlanta
Georgian: “John N. Holder of Jack
son county is the ablest speaker of
the house I've ever known. ... He is
fair. . . . He has played a highly hon
orable part in achieving much of the
most wholesome legislation on the
statyte books today. Mr. Holder kas
served CGeorgia wisely and well. He
deserves much at the hands of this
state, I think.” |
Adel News: “His platform through
out is a sensible and strong one—one
that will appeal to thinking people.”
Cedartown Standard: ‘‘Able, honest
and fearless John Holder would make
one of the best executives in the his
tory of the state.” - |
Oglethorpe Echo: “John Holderi
couldn’t be insincere, if he tried.”
Ashburn Farmer: John Holder's
“newspaper experience, coupled with
his long experience in the Georgia
legiglature, makes him understand our
needs. We will trust a successful
newspaper man with any office.”
Banks County Journal: “Mr. Holder
Is one of Georgia's ablest men and,
if elected, will make a good execu
tive.”
Butler Herald: “From personal ac
quaintance with Mr. Holder, we con
gider him one of tHe broadest, braini
est men in the state.”
Fair and Impartial.
John T. Boifeuiliet, for twenty years
clerk of the house, said: “No other
Georgian, except Senator Bacon, was
ever epeaker so long a time. I have
never known a fairer or more impar
tial presiding officer than Jokn N.
Holder.”
Commerce News: “Mr. Holder's
tandidadcy is meeting with approval on
the part of all classes of people. If
elected, he will make one of the best
governors the state has ever had.”

. BLACKWELL.
A most enjoyable event of the sea
son was a surprise dinner given in
Covington News: “John Holder is
faithful and consclentious in the per
formance of every duty. Let's elect
a newepaper man governor.” |
Elberton Star: “He is a well known
and popular newspaper man, and will
recelve the strong support of many
papers and people.” |
Holder’s Public Life.
Many other equally strong indorse
ments might be quoted, but just how
we desire to say a word about Mr.
Holder's life and public record.
John Holder is, primarily, a farmer.
He is a successful farmer. His farm
Is conducted on business principles.
It is a well-kept, prosperous farm. He
18 also a successful newspaper man.
He has been one of the proprietors
and the editor of the Jackson Herald
since 1891,
Born and reared on a farm in Jack
son county, working on the farm while
he went to school, he may literally be
sald to have made his way in life
wholly through his own effort. He
{s a first honor graduate of the state
university at Athens.
Honored By Home Folks.
There is no higher tribute that can
be pald a man than the repeated in
dorsement of his home people. For
eighteen years now, term after term,
they have elected him to the legis
lature, both house and senate.
Holding equally high opinion of his
abllity, his integrity, his fairness and
other executive as well as personal
qualities, his colleagues have elected
him four times speaker of the house
of representatives. His service ot
eight years as speaker of the house
is a distinction which has been enjoy
ed by no other Georgian except Senator
A. O, Bacon. ’
And, although he is not a lawyer
|and never undertook legal study in
ihils life, he has presided with a skill,
a tact, a dignity and an ablility that
'have won him the pralse and commen
dation of every one who has come into
}contact with him.
| Legislative Career. |
' John Holder's legislative career
‘has been marked, as Editor Nevin says, ;
lby a connection with “much of the
most wholesome legislation on the stat-!
ute books today.” He began his leg~!
islative career by entering actively the
fight for increased appropriations for‘
the common schools. He ts standlngi
equally steadfast for them today, as|
well as for longer terms and better';
and more prompt pay for teachors.“
His favorable attitude always to Geor- |
gia’'s Confederate veterans and wid.
ows is well known. |
| Holder’'s name appears as the sole
‘author of the law which ended the ob
im)xinus convict lease system, and put
|t,Eu-, convicts to building good roads in
'all the counties of Georgia. His
‘name is connected with the measure
;;,:'()\'i:ix;::; for uniform and cheaper
‘srimul text bhooks; with one of the
Ibv~,! health laws ever enacted by any
' state; with the state highway com
mission act; with the establishment
of the state market bureau; with the
enactment of bhetter banking laws for
Gecorgia, and with many others, more
recently among them the effort to
prevent any increased taxation and to
bring about greater economy in state
expenditure. |
These are only a few of the good
things John Holder has done and help
ed to do for Georgia. His wide ex
perience and knowledge in the serv
ice of the state, eminently fit and
qualify him to be governor of Georgia
