\Vc-(l!iesclay, May 26, 1937 THE KLESHERTON ADVANCE BABIES BY TELEl'HONE Chicago achieved somethinfir new in obstetrics when a physician delivered * baby by telephone. The dootor was *s astounded as the parents when it turned out to be twins. But there should be no cause for surprise. Even with all the improvements telephone entrineors have devised, subscribers sometimes get the wrong number.â€" Chicago Daily News. ITS NOT FAIR Post office clerk: "This letter's over-weight, madam. Youll have to put another three-cent stamp on it." Woman: "\Vi>ll, of all things. Here I've mailed a dozen letters that were iimiei weight. And now you want to charge nig thret' cents because I'm .â- ^ending one that's just a teenty-bit over the limit. That's terrible. And I I'ight at your own post office, too."

No matter what "it" may be â€" the price of eggs, that other recipe for shortbread â€" arc you sure your not-very-fre<]uent visits with the neighbours give your wife real ample opponunity to "talk it oil over"? Wouldn't a telephone suit her far better? A telephone never lets you get lonely. Maybe good roads and automobiles liavc brought us all closer together . . . but not within a moment's speaking- distance. That's the telephone's job! NEW LOW RATES for farm telephone service are now in effect ! This Is The Power Age Tlie development of nicchailical power as an aid to man has been one of the distinguished characteristics of the twentieth century. The beginning of the modern power age is back ss far a.s James Watt and his steam engine, but the nineteenth century added a continuous series of discover- ies and inventions which made pos- sible the enormous use we are now making of gasoline, oil and electric power, as well as steam. Western countries have several times as much mechanical horse- power working for them as they have manpower. In the United States, which is generally considered to be the world's most highly mechanized country, there are estimated to be five or six horsepower for every person in the population. In Canada and Great Britain it is more like four horsepower per person. If wo adopt the ratio of six men to one horsepower, then there must be somethinjj like twenty-four mechan- ical man-power available for every man, woman and child in the popu- lation,â€" surely an amazing contrast with a century or so ago when men had to rely on their own strength, and that of their horses and oxen. Much the greater part of all this potential power is for transportation purposes; it is in our more than a million motor vehicles and our thous- ands of steam locomotives and ships. I'art of our eight million electrical horsepower is used for transportation too, but most of it goes into our mines, our manufacturing plants, and iiur homes. Besides electric power, our factories use another million and a half horsepower from steam, gas, oil and water-wheels. Then there are the traitors and stationary en- trines on our farms, each another rea. son in itself for calling this the age of mechanical power. A lfi-<iay-old robin can eat as many as G8 earthworms in a singe day. F. T.
