A Speedy recovery to good health Is Wished for het, weekly installment.'of the party line romance, after that, if we had company and there was an in- teresting ring on the telephone, Aunt Martha would sit still for a few moments and then get up and start looking around as if there was something she had misplaced. Then she would walk to the front room and tip-toe through the far door into the hallway and so, ;0 the telephone. She always had a sweater handy in the hallway for Such emergencies, We could al- ways tell when. she reached the telephone because there was one squeaky board ,she never seemed able to miss, After living in a "patty line"- house you developed a sense about calls that were interesting antelin- portant. Two long and one short was no good, Tom Dyment was a beclielor and he used his telephone strictly; for business, Four long was er, good one hecause there were three teen-age girls at, the Thom- eon' plaee and they had boy friends, giOrybody listened for' two long, two' sheet , rings, e That ;was Jack MgcVicar and he was insurance agenta justice:of the peace, pound keeper and:secretary of the schOol board. You could hear 'about a fire or'a theft or possibly strayed cattle or who the school teacher had as escort to'the dance at the town- ship hall. "Notoeious Listener Abbie' Jenkins was a, notorious listener., Her telephone was placed at ..a 'convenient spot on the wall so that she could sit doWn and con- centrate on her listening. She also had a great clock and the ticking sound was a dead giveaway. Abbie would never admit listen- ing to the telephone and would often comment on what a terrible habit it was for people to listen in on • telephone conversations. Uncle Albert tricked her, one time by suddenly stopping his conver- sation to the pig buyer and saying: "Abbie, your clock is wrong." Be- fore 'she 'had time to collect her Wits she said: "It is, not, I set it this morning by the school bell." Abbie 'was horrified but the corn- ,munity had a wonderful chuckle, The atianee part 'about the party line in, the.chtendayees the face :thee everybody listens but very, ,very re* ever admit they . do. On the 'other hand, if there's a hint 'of tragedy, somebody sick •or a fire, just listen to them chiming in, without any'thoughttof preserving their declaration of "no listening". Possibly women are more inclined to cover up the fact that they listen. I remember my uncle picking up the receiver one day, after the Jenkins' ring Went in, He wanted In The Toronto Glebe and 1011 Me first reel. knowledge of how important the party line telephone was in rural community affairs came the Winter I stayed with MY Uncle Albert and Aunt,Martha on their farm' in West Wewanosh Tewnship in Heron County, My "uncle had an attack of 'the thous malice and I was tie help with the *me and attend school, One January eveeihg When I came in from the stable with Uncle Albert there was something miss- ing from the kitchen, "What happened to the tele- pherie?" demanded Uncle, Albert.
