Telephone Nuisances. One of the greatest conveniences oh the business man of this day and time is the telephone. The local ex change here is. also & grout conven ience in facilitating the business of the town and surrounding coun try. A custom is springing up, however, that will go far towards destroying its usefulness as a busi ness medium. Reference is made to the extensive use of telephones by persons who desire to carry on lengthy social conversation. Often it requires considerable time, and a lot of patience, to secure any connection because “The line is busy”, and busy with some silly conversation that the person talking would not think of saying after ringing.one's door bell. It would be a good idea for the company to en force some stringent rule regulating such use of the ’phone.
