Lexington Telephone Exchange Is Noted For Courteous Service \
by Chester Marshall

When any one of the 1475 tele
phone subscribers on Southern
Bells circuit out of the Lex
ington office picks up the tele-
phone to talk, he expects i'm
mediate connection. Almost
Immediately the connection is
made and he starts his con-
versation with the party on the
other end.
To the general public this SER
vice is a matter of routine and
is taken for granted, but a visit
to the telephone exchange would
cause many a person to marvel
at the intricate operation nee
eSSary to connect the two par
ties. In the Lexington office,
it is done by switchboards filled
with lights and holes in which
pull out connections on flexible
cords are used to connect or
d~isconnect the parties.
To a layman, the c-riSscrosSed
lines and flashing lights make
for nothing but confusion, but
the trained personnel who oper-
ate the switchboards make the
job look simple.
The Brains" behind the Lex
ington exchange is Mrs. Dora
Pearl Tidwell, Chief Operator.
She knows her business, having
been with Southern Bell for 80
years, which accounts, to a large
degree, for the efficient, orderly
operation and friendlineSS of the
Lexington exchange and its
operators.
Mrs. Tidwell is held in high
esteem by Southern Bell. AS
evident, she was recently cleo
ted president Of the Telephone
ItioneerS, Choctaw Council,
which is more or less an hon
orary club within the Southern
Bell System, nationwide. To
belong to the Pioneer Club, an
employee must have q years
service with the Company.
Mrs. Tidwen is the first
woman to hold the office of
president in the Choctaw Council
which is composed of all north
west Miss.

telephone operators have per-
formed numerous services to
