The call, placed in Washington, D. C., was carried to Northridge, California, by Electrowriter and Data Phone. This equipment changes handwriting into tones in order to transmit it from one location to another. When the message reached its destination, it was changed back into handwriting to be read by a group of students study ing under a special grant from the Vocational Rehabili tation Administration. This is another in a series of de velopments which help make it easier for handicapped people to communicate and to participate in a full and normal life. * * * Know a product, but not who sells it? Know a dealer’s name, but not his address? Need a special service, but don’t know where to get it? Try this famous encyclopedia of products and services... 50 YEARS AGO A TELEPHONE REPAIR SUPER INTENDENT drew up a set of rules to guide his men in their work. This was part of his advice: “Treat everyone as you like to be treated, but don’t forget your horse. If you want to know the horse’s side of it, just take off your coat and hat some zero day, hitch your self to the same post with your belt and stand there about two hours. Be courteous and polite, and don't be afraid to hand out a little jolly occasionally. It doesn't hurt any body’s feelings to be jollied a little.” While the advice about the horse is now a little out-of date, the second part still applies. Guiding principles for telephone people today still include “a little jolly”, only we refer to it as courtesy, politeness and friendliness. REPORT OF CONDITION OF Swannanoa Bank & Trust Co.
