Dear Sir-In reply to yours OF the Sd
inst, inquiring as TO our telephone ex-
change of forty-seven members. ! have
TO say that the Clark Automatic Switch
works TO perfection even with those old
style instruments. We have a little over
thirteen miles of wire. The cost for
all renewals and replacements was
about soc. per number yearly since
Observation-Disclosures 1899. September,
1900, to September. 1901, was as follows:
Zines and vitrol ..................$22.6 22.66
Care of lines and Batteries ...... 1000
Total chargeable to mainte-
nance ...........ss........-.. -..s..s .>o@.vu
(Material on hand. about 5000, TO be
deducted)
We have first-class construction,
metallic circuit. insulated wires,
etc. Right here is an important point
I'm a telephone system. Use first-class
material and construction. or none.
Think OF how fine the instrument must
be which enables me to know and rec
ogniZe a voice four or five hundred miles
away that | had not heard for fifteen
yearsl You will then understand that
there must be no interference II results
are to be expected. Do not allow poor
or cheap construction to Ctmage the
good name OF the Clark Automatic. /
know the character is good. Keep the
reputation right and you will live long.
Yours respectfully.

Gentlemen--I have used your tele-
phone system, both local and in connec-
ton with the long distance telephone,
for two months, and If there is any
thing in that line that will give better
satisfaction than your system l would
like TO see 1t. The great advantage of
your system seems to lie in the fact
that you need not ring up the hello"
girl at central. who may be momen-
tarily absent. and who does not stay
there nights, but all you have To do is
TO turn the button to the number you
want 10 talk TO. and then everything
is ready for you; neither can you
nefghbors or anyone else hear what
you are saying. as nobody is con-
nected with you except the one you
are talking with. We are using one
at the bank and another one at our
home. We first thought we would
not take one for our home; but now
that we have 1t, my wife and chill
dren say that your telephone will be
the last thing they will part with. and
/ think so myself. Your system makes
me think OF the money we have loaned
out; IL works week days, nights and
Sundays.
