LONGEST ON! 24 Years With Phone Lines


job employee of trading Springfield


By CELIA RAY


MUCH of the romantic history of the telephone Industry bas been unfolded in the 24 years Miss Ida M. Smith, cashier of the South- west Bell Telephone company, has been with the concern.


Miss Smith started as student operator with the old Home Tele- phone company July 1, 1903. One year and a half later the Bell Tele- phone company took over that plant and Miss Smith became eve- ning chief operator. From that position she won steady promotion. ¡to information operator, chief oper- .ator, assistant cashier in the office of the company and then cashier.


--


1 NICER PLACE TO WORK


+


The concern was all on one floor -the third floor at 801 Boonville avenue-when Mies Smith beran work. There were alx "positions" at the switchboard with about 10 operators employed, Including one long distance operator. Now there are 43 positions at the switchboard with 20 nt the long distance board : aud 160 operatore employed.


--


4ª As Miss Smith conducted me through the spacious quarters of- cupled by the company in the three-story building on Jefferson avenue it was easy to visualize the igrowth she had seen in the concern in the 24 years. The offices on the That floor of the building. the plant depatiment on the second floor, and the rows of switchboardy on "the third floor with operatora busily clicking the connections were evi- dences of this expansion. 1


+


"A pleasant place to work." re- marked Miss Smith na we walked through the departments and the


bright cretonnes-where the girls spend their rest pertiuts. and the 'little cafeteria where lunches are served to them.


OLD TIME TELEPHONING - -----


- "The long distance wasn't used . much when I first began as tele- phone operator." recalled Smith.


"There was a difference. too. In the equipment. We didn't have the 'headsets together with the trans- in !! ter a. the "peralta now have. |


The light system of signals was used as now. however.


"When we took numbers we re- them or not just as we chose. „There were no certain phrases to be used in answering. the calle.""


Some of the terminology of the industry has been changed. Miss ¡Smith pointed out, and in that con- Inection told two incidents of the .days when individual lines were called "straight lines and people were not familiar with the term "party line."


"When we would get a trouble complaint we would ask the person what kind of line he had-whether a straight lines or party line." bald Miss Smith.


DISLIKED "GANG LINES"


"One man called to say his tele- phone was out of order and I asked !the usual question. 'Well." he re- Hdled. the line Isn't exactly straight -! t runa a Ifftle to the west.'


"Another man called to ask about Installing a telephone and when I asked him what kind of line he wanted he replied. "I don't want one


1


party line."


The public, Miss Smith has found. je very agreeable to deal With. not only as she meets it now in the office but also as she knew it when she said. "hello" over the telephone. A little explanation in case of com- plaint-an attempt to clear up mis- understandings-are wonderfully effective. she believes.


Thrilling events in the history of Springfield during the past 24 VORTA are recalled by Miss Smith in connection with her . work at operator. The news of a fire. R i glorm, or, ant.or telephone operity connections for t

" NATIVE OL BRIR


"The fire which'd Baldwin theater Cf I remember wertig pened after midnightand I was i called to the office "to"help," said Mies Smith.


"Always in case of disaster extra ' operators are put on duty because so many persone are calling their friend«. I remember in that fire one of our cables was' burned in' two and we had a lot of trouble!

making connections." " Miss Smith was 'born in Spring -! field and lives with her mother and brother on R. F. D. 6.


That Miea Smith has ability and has worked faithfully is proved by the constant promotion which she has won. F. V. Crawford, ? acting ninnager of the telephone company .! pointed out.


"Aliss Smith is faithful and ;very accurate in her work."> mald Mr. Crawford.
