END OF RINGING SYSTEM
Bell Telephone Will Mark Occupancy of New Office on Saturday with Inauguration of Central Energy.
[Welland Telegraph, 23 February 1912]
The death knoll to the old ring system of calling central on the telephone has been sounded in Welland. The familiar ding-a-ling will be a thing of the past after next Saturday for the Bell Telephone Company will move into its new office on Division Street on that date and this will mark the inauguration of the central energy system.
When this system is in operation all that will be necessary in calling central will be the removal of the receiver from the hook on which it rests and the “hello” from central will immediately (?) follow.
Workmen have been engaged for some time in installing the new system, which is a very intricate one and which is being put in at a much larger expense than the present one.
