PRINTING
When you write a letter, does the letterhead show you are a man of'
good taste, someone who takes a pride in his work and business? Perhaps
you don't use printed stationery or you have neglected ordering printed
envelopes recently. Just remember that in many instances the firm or
individual to whom you write may not know you personally, but might
form the wrong opinion if your letter head is unattractive or you use no
printed material at all, Put your best foot forward—in good printing,
attractively and reasonably done by us.
Dial resembles
switching trains,
The operation o Ithe "cross-
bar" switching system—which
connects Exeter's telephone
calls—might well he compared
to switching trains in a rail-
road yard.
The crossbar control equip-
ment, which sets up the talk-
ing paths, performs an opera•
tion in the exchange similar to
that of , the control tower dis-
patcher in a railroad yard.
• The crossbar switching net-
work performs telephone func-
tions similar to the railway
functions performed by the
maze of tracks and switches in
the yards.
When a railroad dispatcher
receives an order to move a
train from one location to an-
other, he checks his elaborate
control map which shows him
the various routes through the
yard which he can use, and
which of the tracks and
switches are busy.
He works out a route through
the idle tracks and switches
and then throws the levers
which cause the switches to
operate. Then he gives a green
light to the waiting locomotive
engineer.
In a similar way, the cross-
bar control equipment in a
telephone control office checks
to determine the terminal to
which the called telephone is
connected, finds an idle path
between the terminals of the
called telephones and closes
the switches to set up the path.
Main line railroad tracks be-
tween cities can be linked to
telephone trunks between tele•
phone offices and exchanges.
When a dispatcher's order
calls for a train to go from
one city to another he throws
switches to put the train on
the proper main line track and
notifies the dispatcher at the
other end so the latter can set
up a clear route to the destine.
tion through his local switch-
ing network.
Similarly, crossbar control
equipment switches a call
through to an outgoing trunk
and automatically tells the
other office or exchange what
number was called so that the
control equipment in that of.

complete the call,
