The telephone system was bad in
this city last Wednesday and Thurs
day. 1t was all on account Of the
linemen being at work shifting
wires, putting in new poles, cross
arms, etc., and patrons who were
swearing at the system and at cen
trail on those two days should bear
in mind that the failure Of the sys
ten to work properly is a source OF
deeper chagrin to central than it is
to them. The long distance wires
we're all crossed, and Miss Pickett,
who has charge of the central Office,
never welcomed six o'clock with
greater feeling Of relief than she
did on those two evenings.
