Above is published a copy of tho new

when a fire is reported to the Central

It became necessary to adopt this
rule for the reason that heretofore as
soon as the fire whistle blew 500 or
more phone users would call at onco on
central to give them tho location of
the fire. It was a physical impossibility
for Central to wait on these all at onco
and while they wore trying to anower
these curiosity calls tho firemen
would be waiting at tho hoso
nouses trying to get connection with
Central and got tho location of tho fire,
which was impossible to do on account
of the demorilization of the telephone

Heretofore a firo call has, for the
reasons heretofore stated, put the
telephone service out of business. In
case of sickness or injury it would not
have been possible to secure a doctor.
No mntter how the service might havo
been for its patron the company could
not have rendered tho service.
With the adoption of the now rules
the company will bo able to take cure
of tho firo by furnishing Information
promptly to tho firo department and
the person immediately interested and
render efficient service during tho firo
to all of its patrons.
The telephone company aro entitled
