If you are having, or have had. some trouble with your phone line, don't howl, because the company is engaged in placing the lines in certain por tions of the city in cables and under ground. They are running cables from the central office north some three blocks and two blocks north are to have cables underground running east and west quite a distance. Do ing this work and thus eliminating much of the overhead-wire nuisance, will cause more or less disarrange ment of the lines for possibly several weeks before they get the new sys tem perfected. With this change there will be comparatively few over head wires, the cables holding some 400 and over of the talk-talky things. We call attention to the above so you may not cuss long, loud and deep, if you can't think through your telephones whenever the spirit moves you. However, the company is en gaged in a good work and when it is finished the pleasure will be yours. The company also intend putting in new and up-to-date switchboards and make the system just what it should be—better than the best.
