Telephone Pioneers

The telephone pioneers of America,
who resently held their third annual
convention in Chicago, had numerous
stories of the trials of the early days in
the business to recount, but no repre-.
sentatives could spin more interesting
yarns than the pioneers from this
state.
This is quite TO be expected since
the first commercial telephone ex
change in the world was opened and
operated in New Haven, the service
being given through a switchboard
constructed by George Coy, at the time
conceded that Charles w. Dow, now
district traffic lchief for the Southern
New England Telephone company
with headquarters in Norwich, was
one of the first operators in the world,
Mrs. Marjorie NJ. Gray, of Danbury,
enjoying the unique distinction of be-
ing the first woman operator.
1t is interesting TO know TINT DR.. L.
b Doolittle, NOW resident Of Pine
Orchard, experimental en- and per-
fected hard.drawn copper wire his APP
pication of this product 10 telephone
purposes making long distance con-
versalions possible-in the plant of
Wallace & Sons in Ansopia, and that
the first real Long Distance: line in the
world was constructed between Boston
and New York, running along the
shore line of this state.
Ia those early days of the business,
easily within the memory of many
present day telephone users, the tele-
phone was considered an interesting
but impracticable plaything, anything
bat safe investment. What a con-
trast to the present system in which in
Connection; alone, there are over one
huadred and seven Thousand | tele-
phones from which millions of calls
are passed yearly to other telephones
