HE rapid increase in the number of new tele

in the greater use and value of the service
as a whole.
Approximately 1,320 new telephones were added
to the Bell System in South Carolina during the
first six months of this year.
? ?
The telephone operators are handling an aver
age of 298,200 local caHs every day, an increase
of 6.4 per cent over last year's record.
Long distance calls average 5,200 each day or
6.4 per cent more than in 1923.
To handle such a volume of traffic, twenty
four hours^a day, every day in the year, requires
a highly trained loyal organization of young women
