HEN Alexander Graham Bell first exhib
ited his crude telephone invention at the
Philadelphia Centennial in 1876, the
whole world paused to ridicule. "What
means this charlatan who would hood
wink the people who would have us
think that mere metal will talk?"
And then began the struggle!
Strong men threw themselves into the
front line of offense Vail, Saunders,
Forbes. Lockwood. Barton: then Thayer,
U?ish. Bethell. Carty
the conviction that that service could and would
be realized. From a mere handful of telephones
in 1890,.with long distance service still behind the
horizon, the Bell System has been developed no
less by money and hard work and brains than by
the sheer worth and merit of the service itself.
To-day, with a net-work of copper highways
spreading over the land and serving upwards of
nine million telephones, that same spirit of Service
First is the guiding influence of one hundred and
sixty thousand employes men and women, both,
who work not Jor the company, for they are the
company; men and women whose constant striv
ing it is to carry th veal spirit of service down
into their every-day doings at the switchboard, out
on tne country poie unes, in tne underground wire
ways of the city, and at every desk in every office of the
company. To them, no task is too difficult if il spells Serv
ice. Call it pride, loyalty, or what you will! That spirit
exists to-day as never before; and it jis being handed down
tn the last voumrster in the business by those older em
