New Telephone Inspected

    W. C. Walstrum, of Roanoke, superintendent of telegraph on the Norfolk and Western, was in Graham yesterday on his private car.  Mr. Walstrum was accompanied by an expert electrician and they were inspecting the new telephone recently installed by the railroad company.  The new phone has ten parts to it, but as only one of them is permitted to talk at a time, it is thought the 'phone is a good one and will give satisfaction.
