Cables Are Being Strung in
~ Sayre and Athens
Plains" one of the finest telephone
installations to be found in a
community of similar size in the
United States. The finishing
touches on the new work will
enable the company lo give about
as near perfect service as can be
So great has been the demand
here for telephones that a certain
amount of congestion in the service
has been unavoidable. The lines
serving the West Sayre and Athens
districts were heavily burdened
with business, and as it was deter-
mined to increase the service to the
point where further additions would
not have to be made fcr years to
come. Accordingly a new cable
system is being installed. This
cable contains 125 pairs of wires
at its starting point at the Sayre
exchange. At Lincoln street a 50
pair cable branches out and will
serve the West Sayre territory, the
latter cable taking the place of the
mass of unsightly wires that have
heretofore done duty in that part
of town. From Lincoln street to
Athens the cable contains 75 pairs
The management of the company
states that it is expected to com
plete this portion of the work some
time next week.
Another improvement that will
be appreciated by the company's
patrons will be the consolidation of
at Sayre, and it is thought that the
job will be completed about the
middle of April. Everyone knows
the difficulty that is sometimes en-
countered in trying to converse
with a Waverly party. When" the
Waverly exchange is finally dis-
continued that trouble will be a
thing of the past, as the Waverly
subscriber will be called direct from
the Sayre exchange. The work of
setting the poles up Wilbur avenue
to the Waverly village line has just
been finished, and a large force of
linemen and cablemen are busily
engaged in stringing the cables,
Still another new cable designed
to perfect the service is being in-
stalled in Sayre by the Valley com-
pany. This one starts at the ex
change on Lochart street, extends
through the alley bisecting Elmer
and Lehigh avenues to Mohawk
street and thence to Spring's Cor-
ners. It is of the 50 pair capacity
and will serve the Milltown district
Few people realize the cost of
these improvements. A cable
strung on poles does not impress
the average beholder as being a
very expensive affair, yet when the
Waverly exchange is finally consol-
idated with the one at this place
the plant will represent an amouat
of money aggregating thousands
of dollars.

scions of the early pioneers of this
valley. His father, Dr. A. H.
Woodworth, was one of the fore-
most men of his time, and his
mother was a daughter of John
Shepard and a sister of Mrs Julia
A. Perkins, the author of “Early
Times,” This historic valley was
favored with a class of early settlers
who foresaw its possibilities and
wisely set themselves to the task of
making their homes here and sur-
rounding themselves with the com-
forts of life. The elder residents
of this section will remember some
of them, Dr. Woodworth in pars
ticular. He was one of the pillars
of the Athens Presbyterian church,
and since his death his son, John
A, has filled his place with the
character and dignity of a true
christian citizen.
SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT

ed to continue business in Sayre

sile. Anyone wishing to engage

or having a friend who wants to
start in business, can obtain full
information regarding the stock on
hand by calling at the store. With
many thanks to the people of
Sayre, Athens, Waverly and sur-
rounding territory for their past
patronage and hoping that they
will continue the same, | remain
