This was the contemporary comment of a scientific journal on the long distance telephone service of 1890. The "vast territory" ended with Pittsburgh on the west and Washington on the south. Along its frontier stood a wall of silence. No such barrier now confines the voice of nan. To places and to people he has never even seen fly his wire-borne thoughts. Over distances which it would take him days to travel his words speed in an instant. The 9o,ooo miles of toll wire of I 890 have grown to more than 4,5oo,ooo miles carrying a daily average of more than I ,6oo,ooo long distance conversations. Thus has the wall of silence been pushed back to the edges of the continent. In its place is a nation -wide telephone service. Mr. and Mrs. P. L.
