Rotary dial? Who needs that newfangled contraption. I just pick up the earpiece, turn the crank a couple of times and yell into the horn, telling Effie down at the general store who to connect me to.

Mine still has a crank, how did you get a dialer?

I know someone at the phone company. Effie down at the general store was getting too cranky for me. Yes, that pun was intended.

If I could just keep Lum or Abner from listening in I would happy. Oh well maybe Fibber will call and we can gossip a little in private.
