Ours was ALpine4-5506, and if you dial that today you will still get me.
Before that was 70-W, we had a 4 party line. To get another # on your line
you asked the REAL LIVE OPERATOR for the letter "on this line" and she'd
ring that letter on your line. I remember going to a town way up north,
Sheldon I think, and calling a friend's house, the operator told me she had
just walked past on her way to the store but when she came back by she'd
tell her I had called. I thanked her and headed to the friend's house. Ruth
