ADVERTISE IX THE TIMES- IT PAYS
How the War Can Be
Won From the Skies
Tremendous plans are now being formed to deliver o crippling blow at < Germany’- military efficiency,
not only “putting out her eyes.*' but spreading havoc by aerial armada- numbered by th'-usa’d . Vast,
sums are to be spent for the establishment of an American air-fleet on a colossal scale, and training--choc
for air-pilots are beginning to spring up like mushrooms over night.
During the past three years, there has been in Europe not only an immense dt velopment of the art
of flying, hut a specific evolution of the allied art of the aerial duello.
In THE LITERARY DICIEST for July 7th. one of the most interesting article 1- a translation from tl *
French of Oscar Ribel. Chief Instructor in a French “School of Pilotage." Tins article explains in much
detail, the tactics of air-fighting. It is illustrated by sketchc.- which visualize the tactics of pursuit, of
fense and defense.
There are many other features of unusual interest in “Tin Digest” thi- week, among which are:

future life of our boys and girls.
In this week's DIGEST there is, a wealth »»f in

World’s Largest Telephone Central
/s £/ie Telephone Company Trying
Ti sw so Improve Your Service?
YOU have read of our $3,000,000 building projects
in Talk Number 1, last week. Now we want to tell
you about our $2,000,000 investment in new central office
equipment. It is one of the most important items in our
$10,000,000 construction program.
Central office tr> Cities urc being increased in
all exchange*. They consist of six hundred and
fifty five additional operators’ sections of
switchboard, enough to supply, over the pres
ent p r mils' • nofDc troit*another average city
people with all necessary central
office equipment.
The Cost , in Round Numbers,
is Two Million Dollars
We are increasing facilities everywhere with a
view to future needs. Service conditions are
beinr irrpro*'* and r/.ofar as exp nsion of switch
board capacity will improve them.
How long hm th ; n work been in progress?
Forxr.nnymc . nstr ’ lion of switchboards
is slow, c i ctin v/orb. You can imagine, that
construction of such intricate mechanism can
not proceed very rapidly.
Millions of wires terminate in r single switch
board. All must u e spliced by hand. So here,
it is steadv, pemistrnt plodding that counts.
Look at the Pic

the Cherry ;chnnge.

new switchboard had arrived. At the left,
the same switchboard is shown as it appears
today. Installers have been busy here for
four months; yet, the work is not more than
ane-third done.
As quickly as a section is finished it is placr 1
in operation, giving you the full benefit < 1 all
available facilities. Your parties h r < xchungc
is receiving the same degree of att nt en.
Yet, that is not all that has been or i being
done in the Cherry office. It represents drily
one-third of the new facilit i: 4 ‘.ic' : t';
It is only about one-fifth of all the switchboard
in that big exchange.
Largest Exchange in the V/c? and
You will be astonished to knov. that tin rc is
more switchboard in the Cherry t xchangc than
in any other exchange in the world, and that
the Cherry office has a larger numl cr of calls
per telephone than am,' other exchange.
