PEACOCK & CO. 9 IF ~ * When i||3d® the CMdren Igo to School ®%g|X You have a feeling of secur- * ' ity if there are telephones in the community. As a means of protection the telephone is of inestima ble value in rural districts. In widely separated dis tricts neighbors can communicate quickly with each other and with the nearest town. Under the plan of the Bell System any farmer can secure telephone service at low cost.

L\ L —M—UIJftUKi win lll■■llllllll mu mi iin in iimii iron Georgia Railroad Handling its Trains by Telephone System The telephone dispatch stysem of the Georgia railroad, the installa tion of which begun some time ugo, was completed the latter part of August, and on the first of Septem ber the system was used for the fir.-t ti ne in the history ot southern rail -1 raads. The outlay of southern ex- I peiV iture of $30,000 or more, but jit is one of the most complete sys tnns, and is the surest way of hand ling dispatches known to the scien tific world today. 'The system is very simple, and by its simplicity is made certain. At every station, on both the Ang us a-Atlanta and the Macon divis ions, an instrument Lias been in stalled. The main switch ' ird is in Augusta in the nW Alice on Jackson street The train dispatch er sits before this hoard, on which | there is a nmUber of call bells, with head pieces for mouth and ear. In ! this way he lias the entire system iof the Georgia railroad before him, an 1 both hands free to work. There are two wires strung bc- I tween Atlanta and A ugusta. But lone bell, however, is rung when I only one station is wanted. This l is managed by the tuning of the bells to various vibrations, as sta tions of wireless telegraphy are tuned to certain waves of vibration. T lere is also a main bell by which every station on the' two divisions can he called. With this system of telephone dispatch goes what is called in tire railroad offices, a train set, compos-: ed of a length of wires and a porta ble instrument. Officers’ cars, wrecking trains, and one freight train will be provided with tliese train sets.. The set is made up of 40 or 50 feet of wire, which is joint ed to a folding pole. The top of the folding pole is “Y” shaped and on each arm of the “Y” is a hook, which catches the wires and makes connection to the portable phone box on the ground. In this way, if a train is stopped between sta- tions for any reason, communica tion can foe established with either the main offices in Augusta or the nearest station. The telephonic dispatch system lias been installed by the Georgia for many reasons. Perhaps the •hiefest reason is that it is a great time saver, as well as being surer and more accurate. The Georgia railroad is the first southern road to make this initial step. The roads all over the coun try are toward insuring travel over its line, gradually awakening to the superiority of this system. As a timesaver is is valuable. It is also life insurarce for the dispatcher, who heretofore spent hours daily ticking the call to the desired sta tion, and nine cases out of ten the call was not heard by the station-baggage freiget-master-ticket-seller - telegra- 1 PROFESSIONALS.
