TPHE secret of telephone service reliability ia X preventnOYe maintenance, as it's called, or ^correcting troubles before they occor. M The past ten year* have marked the height of Mnom'jliahmeat in chit reject. Thtie *rt atill "froubk ahootera” who are kept buay repanag the dunage. of tne v/ind, sleet, l-.ehmme, flootU, faUing limbs and bice diBurbwace. But there’s a much huger force testing agmntt trouble that would become serious if not nipped in the bud. Complicated and debaste as your telephone instrument is, it stands up well under reasonable usage. The circuits and the switchboards, the cables and the open wires are what require sharpest watch. There sue daily teats and nightly tests; tests for rust, hidden dirt and moisture; tests for eicestive wear, friction, and for electrolysis, bad adjustment and "temperament" in switchboards, open lines and cable plant. I t consumes the time of many people, and sometimes noses more than it srould to let things slide and correct them when the break comes. But it spells service reliability.
