# CHAPTER VI.
'iMt End of Count Weedy.
Feggy and Billy were startled into
laughter at the strange sight of the
rattlesnake sailing through the air at
the end of the Jong* rope held bv the
birds.
"Ha. ha:" cried Peggy exulttngly.
"Now Count Weedy’s dragon is a really
truly flying serpent.”
The rattlesnake didn't like aviation a
bit. It squirmed and twisted and wrig
gled until finally it worked itself out of
the noose. Then down it came tumbling
to ear th, landing some distance away.
"Oh, maybe it will come back." cried
Peggy
"Never fear,” shrilled general Swal
low. dropping the rope at Billy’s feet.
"Mr. Hauler fell into a pigpen and you
know what pigs do to snakes." Peggy
shook her head and looked questionirigly
at Billy. He laughed as he answered;
"Pigs cat ’em.”
While tnis was going on Prince Bon
nie Blue Bell was struggling with the
water key, trying to shut off the pipe
leading to th*. fountain, But he could not
turn it. Peggy and Billy ran to ids as
siatancc. As they did so Count Wetdy
pelted them with balls of burrs, which
stung their faces and got tangled in their
clot lies and hair.
"Throw the burrs hack at him," whis
pered Billy to Peggy. She did so, and
in a minute she was having a hot burr
ball fight, much like a nrjOw ball battle.
As Peggy fought she heard a quick
whish-sh-sh. It was Billy’s rope again.
It settled over the shoulders of Count
Weedy. A sharp pull jerked the ugly
elf from the top of the bluff, tumbling
him into the pond. As he rose to the
surface. spluttering and splashing, he
rose farther than he thought he was go
ing to, for he went right up into tho
air ust as the rattjlesnake had done,
dangling at the end of the rope which
was carried in swift flight by dozcis of
birds. In another minute Count Weedy
was only a speck in the distance. What
became of him the birds never told, but
the rope was brought safely back to
Peggy’s home the next day.
When Billy threw his strength into
turning the water key were quick
results. Something gave way, around
he spun, a tiny stream caught him for
an instant in the face, then with a hiss
and a gurgle the flow of water Into the
fountain stopped and the jets which had
been juggling Queen Flora and holding
her prisoner subsided slowly, letting
their captive down gently to the top of
the fountain.
In remarkably fast time. Prince Bon
nie Blue Bell swam the pond, clambered
up the wet stones, and knelt beside hie
queen.
"Are you safe?” he cried anxiously
"Yes. thanks to you, my beloved
prince’" sighed the queen, and there was
a look in her eyes and an answering
look in Prince Bonnie Blue Bell’s eyes,
that made Peggy conclude promptly that
there would soon be a royal . wedding
among tho Wild Flower Elves. 1
With Billy and the Birds aiding.
Queen Flora, was soon brought safely to
earth. .
"The wild flowers—when will you dance
the wild flowers to life so that we may
sing our spring song?” cried the birds.
"I have danced all I can today,"
sighed Queen Flora. “But gladsome

New Exchange Telephone Rates
Effective May 1, 1919
ANEW schedule of telephone exchange rates will
become effective in Augusta on May 1 by direction
of the Operating Board of the United States Tele
graph and Telephone Administration, acting under
the order of the • Postmaster General of the United
States.
As you know, all of the lines and property of this
company are now in the possession, control and are be
ing operated by the United States government under the
direction of the Postmaster General of the United
States.
The new rates are necessary in order that addi
tional revenue may be secured by the government to
meet the increased operating expenses. The causes
which make greater telephone revenue necessary are
due to the new conditions and the new price levels in
troduced by the war and are entirely beyond the con
trol of the United States Telegraph and Telephone Ad
ministration or of the Telephone Company.
More than two years ago the company foresaw
that the telephone system would be operated at a loss
unless the rates could be adjusted to meet the increas
ing costs of all elements entering into the production
of service. A similar rate adjustment would have
been unavoidable under private control and the new
rate schedule is practically the same we would have
sought in 1918 if the government had not taken posses
sion of our property.
As stated by the Postmaster General, the owners of
the telephone system do not benefit in any way from
the rate changes. Practically all of the increased oper
ating expenses which require this additional revenue
are due to increased wages paid to employes to enable
them to meet the new conditions of life in the present
day.
It is neither practicable nor desirable to reduce
wages, and so far as wages are concerned we believe
that portion of the increased operating expenses to be
permanent.
The new rate schedule is fair and reasonable and
the percentage of increased revenue which it will pro
duce is much lower than the increased cost of other
services and commodities of a similar character.
Complete detailed information about the new rates
may be obtained at the manager’s office. We are
making every effort to change our records promptly
and your courteous consideration will be appreciated.
The new rate for your service is shown on your state
ment for May 1.
