HOW PHONE SYSTEM BEGAN
There Were Only Eight Subscribers
and the Switchboard Was by
Way of 4 Joke.

One switchboard, with a capacity q
eight subscribers stations-that was
the beginning of telephone service, the
first step toward the commercial de-
veiopment of the late Alexander Gra-
ham Bells now famous invention. A
crude switchboard had been used in
Boston In 1877, but only for expert
mental and demonstration purposes
Its chief function was to convince the
people Of Boston and casual visitors
Of the utility of the telephone and Of
its future possibilities, says Telephone
Press Service.
The ancestor of the modern CONNER
cial telephone switchboard was In
stalled in New Haven. Conn.,. In 1873
From its eight lines has been evolved
the network of wires and cables which
covers the country from coast TO coast.
From single switchboard the num-
Der of central offices within q city has
Increased to over 100. From less than
a dozen subscribers stations, the total
within the limits of q single city has
mounted In several cases to over 100.r
600 and in one case TO over 100000
Under one roof as many as $4,000 lines
are switched and central Offices are
now planned with capacity of more
than double that number.

IDAHO ADVOCATES
A GUARANTY LAW
IDAHO SENATE PASSES JOINT
MEMORIAL ASKING FUND
TO PROTECT DEPOSITORS

By unanimous vote the senate
passed senate joint memorial z, vir-
tually recommending guaranty act
for federal reserve banks. There was
no discussion on the memorial and the
roll call showed SO ayes and no nays.
The measure memorializes congress to
set aside the surplus profits of the fed
eral reserve system into fund to be
used to guarantee the deposits made
by depositors in banks which are mem
bers of the federal reserve system.
The memorial now goes to the house
for action.
By close vote house bill 166, by
Barbee and Reynolds, was killed. This
bill would require every one who kills
beef cattle and sells any of the meat
to sec ire a license from the county
recorder, and to keep a record of the
brands of the animals for the sheriff.
1t was intended as protective meas
ure for stockmen, but the objections
raised were that it would be nuisance
and hardship to every farmer who kills
"critter" for family use and supplies
part of the meat to neighbors.
Senate bill IT, providing for a state
board of forestry and state forester,
was killed by the senate after more
than two hours debate. While there
were only a few of the senators spoke
for or against the measure the vote
showed that only 9 favored its enact
ment into law and % were opposed to
it. The senate also passed the city
coming enabling act and the bill limit
ing the taxing power of municipal cor
porations to 10 mills.
Senate bill 235, considered by many
an entering wedge for future anti
tobacco legislation, was killed in the
upper house Tuesday afternoon after
a short but sometimes humorous de-
bate. The measure, fathered by SEN
ator Thomas, would have prohibited
The posting on billboards, buildings or
other objects of matter advertising
cigars, cigarets or tobacco in any form.
The author, in explaining the measure,
said that it's principal purpose was to
keep from in front of the young people
the attractive advertising matter
which the tobacco companies put out
as he felt that the young boys are in
fluenced by it.
