Phone Service to Improve, Promises Mr. Leavitt, Nov. 24, 1922

Improved Telephone Service

The local Telephone Company is planning extensive improvements in Southern Pines. All congested lines are being converted into cable as rapidly as possible. On Pennsylvania avenue where the removal of the shade trees has completely demolished the telephone lines on that street, the open circuits will be replaced by cable. This will necessitate some delay in replacing this line on account of slow freight movements which seems to hold up everything that is used in construction work. Mr. Leavitt assures the Citizen that as soon as this new cable is received it will be promptly placed and service resumed. The use of cables instead of open circuits will give better service and improve the looks of our street to a marked degree. Anything that will improve our phone service will be hailed with delight by the residents of Southern Pines and Aberdeen.
