IS THE SERVICE POOR? HERE'S THE REASON Local Exchange Forced to Use Stu- dent Operators Because of Short- age of Workers When you wish to telephone your friends, or grocer or the taxicab company and the operator doesn't make a prompt response, is slow in getting the number, gives you the wrong number or the busy signal, don't bang the receiver down and give her a shock, but consider the following facts given a Weekly Talk representative by the local exchange supervisor: "A large number of the operators in the local exchange are novices. Because of the shortage of operators their terms as students at the Evan- ston offices may have been cut short to fill the gaps in the ranks. It is true that the local sérvice is known by the slogans "rotten and awful," | but when one considers the above] facts the service is just a trifle better than it really seems. Now isn't it? "And against the day when the] telephone service in Winetka will be | normal a kind 'Please' and 'Thank You. occasionally will assist greatly in encouraging young women at the switchboard."
