The Valley Falls New Era Jefferson County Thurday September 16, 1909 The Telephone. Has it ever occurred to you that the telephone is supplanting the telegraph?

There are reasons for the growing popularity of the 'phones; yes, there are several reasons. One reason, and a very important one, is, that when you talk to a man you know he gets your message, and you know at once whether you can get what you want without a long wait.
