TELEPHONE WEEK. Through the
courtesy of the heads of the departments
the subscribers of the local telephone
were given the privilege of inspecting
our up-to- date an well managed ex-
change during the past week. About $50
availed themselves of the pleasure. The
majority had no conception of what a
large amount of work was handled until
they stood in the operating room and saw
the busy centrals. 1t is safe to say that
many of the subscribers will have little
more patience in waiting for answers and
for busy lines. This is with them dull
season as it is between the rush of sum-
mer and the regular winter work. 1t is
also the season when the lines are usually
clear and not affected by storms. Many
Kind remarks have been heard in regard
to the pleasure derived from Telephone
/ Week and it will result in mutual bene-
hts. Any who were not able to call last
week will be welcomed any afternoon
this week.
