TO TELEPHONE PATRONS.

We are compelled to ask that you do not make one telephone call that you can get along without. The “fra” and other sickness has reduced our force by six operators. Five operators are doing all possible to do the work of eleven. It will be necessary to discontinue some calls or discontinue some classes of service. Believing you wMI realize our position and give your help. Kindly, Jasper County Telephone Co. Per'Manager
