val. been down stairs, eaten
my breakfast and smoked eight
cigars"
But" timidly demonstrates
the central, lyon told me you
were disconnected, and"
Clear out, central!" yells
the other man, and give us a
chance to talk"
And she clears out, wishing
some things at the bare posi-
bility Of which the unruly men
would shudder. or rather fan
themselves.
The above isonly an instance
and by 70 means a rare one.
There are two telephone com
panies operating in Richmond.
one a local organization and
the other a branch. Between
the two. about sixty five girls
are employed and their exper-
fences are interesting and
varied.
Their manner Of serving the
public, while with the same
effect, is essentially different.
On the one line there is a con-
tinual ring, while on the other
the confusion Of voices calling
for numbers is ridiculous.
Some persons jam their
mouth right into the receiver
and yell as though everybody
we're deaf, while others expect
the transmitter to follow them
around the room in their am
blings.
HOW TO RING OFF.
Then the ring off" is an
other source Of great misun
derstanding. Persons who use
the phone. should remember
that if they do not ''ring Off
before ringing for central
again, they are still ringing
the same number and if any
confusion should result, should
lay the blame in the right
place.
By observing the simple re.
concentrations printed on the
cards a great deal Of trouble
could be averted and much un.
necessary scrambling avoid

TRIALS OF T IE TELEPHONE GIRL

goes During the Day-An Instance
Recited.
From a Richmond Paper.
The trials Of the telephone
girl are many. From early
morn till nightfall. she is the
centre of a B tbel Of voices,
each demanding immediate
and exclusive attention, and
each asking for a number to
be served up to himself in
good order Immediately. She
makes conscientious efforts to
serve them all in the quickest
possible manner, and IT they
would only learn patience and
only remember that they are
not the only voices on the wire,
by cooperation Of sentiment,
they could struggle through
the ordeal in a more satlsfact-
ory manner. Bat man will
never learn the Golden Rule
and the sequel is disastrous.
Let an human being
try to manipulate the plugs on
one of the tables and he would
soon give up in dismay. Still
these girls are expected to be
immaculate in their service,
answer everybody at once,
and give everybody the same
number if necessary.
A man calls central, tells her
that he has been ringing three
hours and asks her why in the
thunder she does not give him
81!
She meekly obeys, knowing
full we'll he has not been ring
ing the tenth part Of three
minutes and on the one hand
tries to ring 81 long enough
and on the other obey the com
mand from the owner not tC
ring it "all day" When 81
does not answer Immediately
the man gives the bell a savage
twist, calls the unoffendine
central. and asks her sarcasti-
cally if she int nnds to give hin
81 before the twentieth century
begins.
Withareslgned air, she gives
the number in demand, another
ring and waits the result. O.
course, not being able to hea,
the conversation, she does no
know when 81 has answered
and wishing to appear atten-
tive, she asks the gentleman /
they have given ear to his sup
plication. They are TALKING
now and the man at the 'phon'
gives 4 savage grOWl and yell
"clearout, cent al!' She clear
out.
She now gives her attention
to the chorus that greets he
ear on her right, watching rim,

are connected.
\ DISMAL VAIL.

mallclously "cut them off.
