The Link Between the Telephones — The Switchboard . The well trained operator is the human link between telephone subscribers. But it is the switchboard which binds together two talk-nerves so that two persons may talk across the miles. There, in the Bell Central OffiJ^is this wonderful piece of mechanism — product of a myriad of inventions. The biggest switchboards cost as much as a thousand pianos. They have 50 operators, 3000 miles of copper and 15,000 electric signals. But the smallest switchboard is just as wonderfubeven what only one operator is required. Next time you come to the Business Office, ask about it, and we'll be glad to show you the local switchboard. The Delaware & Atlantic Tel. & TeL Co., C B.
