Telephone service is great comfort and
the instrument of time-saving We must
confess that we much prefer talking with
our friends or business associates face-to-
face, and use the telephone primarily to
make an engagement for a personal inter-
view. For this purpose it is a time-saver.
Likewise for short business and personal
conversations the telephone is convenient.

Subscribers on party lines will find that
telephone courtesy and conversation not
longer than five minutes will increase the
value of your telephone. Lines Busy" is
a distracting report and not unusual on the
party lines because on almost all of them
there is one subscriber who keeps the wires
hot. We might remember that we owe it to
the other subscribers on our line to give
them a chance to make necessary calls.
The Herald hopes to find news gather
ing easier as more and more telephones are
installed in this area Good service can be
had in Buckingham county, and now in
Cumberland county, but Prince Edward is
far behind. There are some areas which have
no telephone communication at all and

phone. Prince Edward should have better

less than ten years if the 1951-1952 rate of
