Starting Wednesday and contin uing throughout the week, the Eu gene office of the Pacific Tele phone and Telegraph company will hold an open house at its building, Tenth and Oak streets, announces R. B. Bacon, district manager for the company. The general public is invited to attend and guides will be on hand daily from 9 o. ni. to 9 p. m. through the four days lesignatcd for the open house. Visitors will be shown how a tel ephone workj and how Eugene's daily average of 37,000 calls, in cluding some 900 long distance calls, are handled. All apparatus and equipment, from the multi wired cables to the intricate switchboards, will be explained in detail. The open house, accord ing to Mr. Bacon, will mark the first time residents of Eugene and vicinity will have had a formal opportunity to see behind the scenes at the telephone office since 1931, when the last local telephone company open house was held. To Display Equipment A special feature of the open house program will be a score or more of unusual and interesting displays and exhibits, brought to the Eugene office for the event. Included among these will be a hear-your-own voice equipment; an artificial larynx, a product of the Bell telephone laboratories. which enables certain mutes to speak: a replica of Bell's first telephone; a bar of steel that floats in the air, and special displays of antique and modern telephones. The Eugene telephone exchange is 44 years old this year. Telephone company records show that the first switchboard was placed in service in April, 1894, and that on Jan. 1, 1895, the Exchange served a total of 35 telephones. On Feb. 1, this year, the Eugene exchange was serving 6744 telephones, in cluding 620 farmer line telephones. Progress Told In 1894, it was not possible to talk over long distance much more than a few miles. It was not until 1898 that long distance was estab lished south to California, and it was not until 1915 that it was pos sible to talk across the continent. Now 93 per cent of the world's telephones can be connected with any Eugene telephone. "All of the 87 Eugene telephone employes join with me in issuing a cortital invitation to all Eugene residents, whether or not they are telephone customers, to visit our office during the open hous? days. "We know that a visit to the of fice will be interesting, as well as instructive, Mr. Bacon states. Study Club to Review Past Year's Work SPRINGFIELD.
