The doctor has had the good fortune to
receive one of the best medical educations
that the Dominion Of Canada affords, and
his practice here, which was very sue

most thoroughly competent young physi-

GREATLY IMPROVED system.
The Telephone Exchange Doing MosI
Excellent Service.

The telephone exchange is now cunycu
iently housed in new quarters over Riner x
Johnson's. A new switchboard has been
put in and the improvement IN the sys-
tenn is already apparent to every patron
OF the telephone exchange. Under the
new system the wires are handled more
compactly and conveniently. Most of
them are concentrated in two lead cables,
each containing one hundred wires, com
pletely insulated with parafine. Each
strand after it enters the Office is pro-
vided with a fuse so that should there be
a contact with electric light wires the fuse
would be destroyed, thus insulating the
wire and saving the switchboard from all
chance of accident.
The switchboard is 3 marvel in its way.
1t is exceedingly simple in its construction,
easily operated, the contacts are self.
cleansing and one operator can readily
manage $50 phones. General Manager
Annett is determined that the patrons of
the telephone company will receive the
best possible service and the improvement
already noticeable from the changes
which be has lately introduced demon.
strates his energy and ability.
L. L. Pratt, the present local manager,
who has been an exceedingly competent
man, has resigned aud is succeeded by
George f. Thompson, who has been with
the company for the past five years and
understands the business IN nh its practi,
cal bearings.
