procession. The Wausau Telephone
company has escaped thus far, the
board of directors feeling that SO long
as fairly good service was given the
company could afford to worry through
these times in which wonderful i'm
provements are being made in tele-
phone instruments and devices which
tend to give good service and wait until
some inventive genius could bring forth
g system that will be nearer perfection.
For the past few years it has been
evident to those best acquainted with
our plant, that something had to be
done. Wires were accommodating so
fast that every storm or high wind made
an endless amount of work in straight
ening out crossed wires; then, too, the
cost of running new wires and Install
ing instruments was all out OF proper
ton to what it should be, and above
all, the increased number of electric
light wires now being put in by the
Wausau Electric Light Co. and also our
city, makes the single wire Mcclure
system entirely unfit for good service,
as it is impossible to avoid the Undue
ton caused by the running of dynamos
and the proximity of the wires of the
telephone company and of those above
mentioned. Therefore steps were taken
to make the system of the Wausau Tele-
phone company metallic, and have all
the wires in cables rather than to have
them strung separately. This work has
been going on ever since last spring and
many thousands of feet of cable have
eaen put up and it will not be long
before the work is fully completed.
Our present system is back number
and requires much unnecessary labor
and expense to keep it in good working
order and which, at the best, suffers
considerably in comparison to the more
modern plants. The question which
Wausau pilot. [volume] (Wausau, Wis.) 1896-1940, 1904-11-15

1t has been the dream of Nathan
Heinemann, president of the Wausau
Telephone company, and those who
have been on the board of directors
with him since the company was organ
lied almost ten years ago, to some time
give the patrons of the exchange the
very best system of telephone service
that can be devised. They have kept
along with the old Mcclure and Manual
systems up to the present time, putting
in as little expense as possible, but aim
ing at all times to give good service.
So well have they done this, that the
stockholders, at their annual meetings
have not even favored putting in a
metallic circuit, other systems have
come into use, notably the central
energy, which has been adopted in
most of the cities where exchanges
have been pressed to put in more up to
date methods.
Thus an enormous expense had to be
entailed and it is believed fully as much
more will have to be added at some
future date to again catch up with the
Wausau pilot. [volume] (Wausau, Wis.) 1896-1940, 1904-11-15

has been agitating the minds of those
most interested, for a long time is
what system is the best for Wausau?"
Mr.. Heinemann has given a good
deal of his time to looking into the
merits of the various systems now in
telephone. The automatic is not new
thing but has been in operation in
many of the largest cities of our coun-
try for several years. The city of Med
ford, in our state, has mad an automatic
system for several years and they swear
by it, and feel that it is the only all wool
and yard wide system in existence. In
order to give the system trial the d.
rectors of the Wausau Telephone COM
pany has allowed the Automatic Electric
company, of Chicago, to place twenty
instruments in connection with this
exchange, to let the patrons of the same
witness the workings of the system.
The phones are now in the following
places of business:

2 Central for subscribers in Wausau

The PILOT feels that this is a system
which all subscribers of the Wausau
Telephone company, more especially
its members, should thoroughly investi-
gate, and all are invited to the central
office of the Wausau exchange to look
over the arrangement there, also step
into any of the above named places and
try the instrument. This system needs
no hello" girl but is arranged so that
when worked according to directions
it will make its own connections and
when the receiver is hung up, the con-
nection is cut off. So it will be seen
that service can be had at all times in
moment, night or day. It's workings
are very simple, and any intelligent
person can make the connections and
very quickly.

AMIGO 5, WAUSAU 5.

The Wausau high school team
finished up the season by playing
Amigo tie game. 1t was the poorest
exhibition of foot ball that the Wau-
saus have put up this year. Their
defense was weak and the boys charged
slowly, on offense their playing was
ragged.
Amigo won the toss and chose the
north goal, having a strong wind in
their favor. Burek kicked the ball
fifteen yards and Craven fell on it.

Burek kicked to Ladwig who returned
the ball to the twenty yard line where
Thomas downed him. The ball was
steadily advanced up to Wausau's forty

Remove receiver from hook; place

then in No. 4 press button which rings
the bell of the subscriber desired.
If the line is busy, buzz viii SO indi-
cate. When the conversation is finished,
the hanging up of the receiver sends cur
rent over the wires to the switchboard
and instantly clears the lines which
were engaged. The Automatic Electric
company asserts that its automatic
equipment affords the subscriber a
service of greater privacy, promptness
and precision than that gwen by any
other telephone system.

Remember, the automatic is on trial,

FOOT BALL STATISTICS.

With the game at Amigo, Saturday,
the high school finished the foot ball
season. Foot ball was first played by
the high school pupils in the city in the
year 1897. In 1898 the Wausau foot ball
team made the best showing it ever has
made on the gridiron. Since that time
they have been on the decline up to the
present year. During the eight years
of foot ball, the accomplishments of the
teams can be seen by the following
statistics

these instruments are designed for use

The Distinguishing feature, as the
pictures show, is revolving dial IN
derneath the transmitter. This dial
controls the keyboard or calling device
inside the box, which sends the select

dial and keyboard are of the same type,
whether the number of subscribers 70
