Stout “The Rcxaii” Store Roadside Fires One of the many things that put telephone lines out of service is a brush fire. • Although poles are seldom burned by brush fires, the heat often softens the wirts. This takes the temper out and causes them to break in a short time. 4 When the telephone wires between two poles break, the poles on either side are also quite likely to be pulled down under the weight of the wires. « * m • 4 When anyone starts a roadside fire near a tele- • phone line, he is endangering the community’s tele .phone service and possibly cutting off communication between entire cities and states.
