TWENTY-FOUR HOURS a day there are 120 people liv-
ing, eating, thinking The Michigan Daily, so that Ann
Arbor gets the best of what a newspaper has to offer its
subscribers. Since 1896 The Michigan Daily has been
progressing under this principle . . . and since that time
the people of Ann Arbor have enjoyed an honest, cleanly-
edited newspaper.
RURAL telephone wire-not in cables-can now
go underground where bad weather and grass
fires can't harm it.
To make this possible, an entirely new kind of
wire had to be developed. Special insulating com-
pounds, special splicing methods were devised.
Then a simple, economical method of burial had
to be found. A special plow solved this problem-
one that digs a furrow and tucks away the wire in
a single operation.
Just one more step in the process of making
Bell System service, constantly more dependable.
