The doorbell's ring announces the telephone installer, telephone in one haid, crisp sew cftreo
tory in the other. He goes to work quickly, and, almost before you know it, youVe making
that first call. Seems simple, doesn't it? Yet a surprisingly large team of people you'll probably
never meet worked hard to make it possible for the installer to mount your step. And that
doesn't even count all the other craftsmen who had a hand in maurafavtarifig the telephone
instrument and other equipment needed to carry your call.

Cable crews, for instance, installed the cable
from the central office to your neighborhood. Other
telephone people determined the exact pair of wires
in that cable which would carry your calls. Still
others tested the circuits, or put up poles, or spliced
wires... or performed any number of other jobs
which made that first ring possible.
