MEASLES AND THE TELEPHONE
Everybody 'knows that measles bring spots, but how
many people know that measles brought the first telephone
numbers into use?
Way back in 1879, when a measles epidemic 'hit the.
town of Lowell, Massachusetts, a local physician named
Dr: Moses Greely Parker realized that if the town's four•
operators came down ,with the measles, telephone service
would come to a halt
Dr. Parker suggested that nuinbers be used instead
of the names of the 1200 Lowell subscribers, so that sub-
stitute operators, if they were needed, could 'learn ,to
operate the exchange as quickly and easily as possible.
We're not told whether or not the regular operators
ever did come down with the measles, but we do know
that numbers have been a very important part of tele-
phone service ever since!
THE DIRECTORY AND THE
TELEPHONE
Early day telephone directories were usually just lisfs
of people in town who , had telephone service, with an
explanation of how to crank the phone ta get the operator's.
attention. ; But not anymore! The first few pages in 'to-
day's phonekbooks are filleiPlwithiots of dseful''information:
numbers to caJI in emergencies, for telephone repair ser-
vice, for assistance on calls, and to order new services Mgr
changes. They give' instructions' for speeding your Long
Distance calls,. and a list of Area Codes. These "how-to"
pages are there to help you get top value from your tele-
phone service. And that's a pretty good reason 'for using
them! Watch for your new directory to be delivered early
in October.
