The Warren Telephone Company has
voted recently, to extend its line to Mid
dlesex. 1t has thirty instruments on the
line, and intends putting In more in the
spring. The company has some enterpris-
ing men among its officers. III. W. Lyford
Is president; Plyna Parker, vice-president;
K. w. Slayton, secretary, and W. III. Car
dell, treasurer. Much of the company's
success is due to their zeal and ability. The
charge is only IS per year for the use OF the
line; and considering that we have connec-
tions with the Lincoln Telephone Company,
and will connect with the Peoples Tele-
phone Company at Middlesex, which will
give us excellent service, the price is very
reasonable.
