Page 1

This first page of McKellar's new Bell Telephone Book supplement was a description of the directory, which marked the end of an era with the discontinuation of
The McKellar Municipal Telephone System.     In retrospec it was a sad day.


Page 2

The second side of the supplimentary sheet contained the entire McKellar telephone directory. Every residence did not have a telephone at that time, nor was the population anywhere near the current levels.





(Background will be photos of Mrs. J.L. Moore, J.L. (Jim) Moore and Herman Whitmell along with photos of some equipment, or other appropriate photos.)
