FATHER" GRAHAM

Forty-seven years service, with onl
two days lost time, is the enviabl.
record Of Frank A. Graham of tn,
Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone
Company, Baltimore
Father" Graham, as he is affection
ately known by the officials and EN-
ployees of the company, has been as
ISOLATED with the telephone organiza
ton longer than any other member o.
the organization now on active duty
His record is considered nothing short
Of phenomenal, both in the telephone
industry and elsewhere. In spite of
his long period of active service, Mr.
Graham is young, both in appearance
and in enthusiasm.
Entering the service Of the tele-
phone company in Baltimore, August
Z, 1879, as a messenger boy in the first
central office. established there, Mr.
Graham has served in a number OF
capacities. His first duty consisted
in delivering messages received over
the telephone. In those days the tele-
phone was not as universally used as
it is today. Few business firms and
still fewer residents enjoyed the priv
ilege of telephone service. Conse-
quently, messengers were employed by
the company to deliver the messages

acquired a reputation for dependability
and accuracy. During his almost half
century of service, he has never had
an accident. He attributes this IN.
usual record of no sickness and no
accidents to his temperate habits and
even pace of living.

LINE RESCUE WORK

g telephone plays an important
in mine rescue work. Robert NJ
nb!a. Chief of the West Virgins
tment of Mines, pays high
butte to men who installed and main
lined telephones At Eccles' mine dis
aster recently.
The Department of Mines is great
ly indebted to the Chesapeake and Pc
tomac Telephone Company for the co
operation and highly efficient service
at Eccles. as well as Benwood, Bar
rackville and Pennington mine dis
asters," says Mr.. Lambie. "Only those
who know the horror and danger of
work connected with explosions and
mine fires can appreciate what such
service means"
THE explosion at the Eccles mine
had greatly damaged the shaft and
destroyed all telephones and signal
service underground. Eddie Stromp,
Beckiey manager of the telephone com
pany, and linemen from that Office ar
rived on the ground with load Of tele
phones and equipment soon after the
explosion occurred, and Immediately
started the installation Of telephone
at all points necessary for emergenc,
and relief service"
A telephone was installed on tn.
cage and four Of the rescue party, in
GLIDING Chief Lambie, started dow
the shaft
Telephone service played a yer
important part in the rescue Of til
ten men who had baracaded then
selves a mile-and-a-half back in III
mine When we found board marked
Come to the third right entry (Signed
T. Davis, a telephone message W.
sent to the surface that there was
possibility of men being alive and as
ing for a doctor and an additional su;
ply Of blankets, hot coffee and restora
tives. The men when rescued a
peared to have come from a mausc
leum. The news of their being aliy
was telephoned from the mine to tn
surface. No one, except those VIII
had urgent and important bushes
had any desire to be out on nigh
such as that. There was high win,
blowing, and one of the most sever,
storms experienced in years was rag
ing, yet the telephone men were
the job as soon as it was humanl
possible for them to get there wit
the necessary supplies and equipmer
to help in rescue work"
