When the telephone born, nothing an
alogous to telephone service as we now know
it existed There was no tradition to guide no
experience to follow.
The system, the apparatus, the methods-an
entire new art had to be created The art OF
electrical engineering did rot exist. The Bell
pioneers, recognizing that success depended upon
the highest engineering and technical skill at
