Telegrams And Telephones

( Originally Published Early 1900's )

TELEGRAMS abroad are usually sent from post offices, except in England. SPECIAL DELIVERY LETTERS, known as Petits Bleus, pass quickly to and fro in Paris. TELEPHONING is a difficult and unsatisfactory process in most foreign countries, though England at least may be excepted from this generalization, and the new American telephone service in Spain is good for both local and long distance in most parts of the country.
