RIG PUBLISHING STUNT.

With the possible exception OF one
no other book published runs into sucn
large editions as the telephone direc'
tory Neither does any other repres-
ent the same amount OF incessant zap
or. and none is more accurate. Though
mistakes are liable to creep into every
human production in spite OF every
nrecaution, the telephone directory Is
acknowledged to be more free from
them than any other list OF names com
piled.
The telephone directory is one OF the
most important adjuncts to good teie-
phone service. As the telephone sys.
tenn grew, not only in the number OF
neopie who made use of 1t but In the
number of times each person employer

operators to keep the run OF subscriD'
ers by name. To attempt to 40 SO
would not only make all sorts OF chan'
ces for errors but would seriously re-
duce the Quickness of the service.
So for the convenience or the large
bodv of telephone users-there are
quarter of a million OF regular SUD
scribers alone now In the four nor
thern New England states-and ior the
sake of uniformly good service, tne
New England company was compeileu
several years ago to establish the praS
tice among its operators that they
should not undertake to do their work

up of the directory are corrected each
day In every one of the 488 exchanges
In the system, and once In so often
these corrections are forwarded to the
catalogue department, as II Is called,
where they are transferred to proof

issue Of the book. Thus the list Is
kept "up to the hour" all the time prac
tically to the moment OF going to press.
When a new exchange Is opened or a
revision OF numbers in an old one is
necessary, special supplements are
published 80 that the public may have
correct information without waiting
for the next regular issue Of the tele-
phone book to come around.
Sometimes telephone user is I'M

he has mislaid his directory, or the

whose name does not appear In the last

ways learn instantly the number you
want by asking the operator to connect

The information operators In every
