A website created as a memorial to the people, history, technology and the "Spirit of Service" of what was known as the "Bell System" prior to 1984. Alexander Graham Bell (March 3, 1847 - August 2, 1922) Click HERE to read the 100th Anniversary booklet published by AT&T in 1947, dedicated to Mr. Bell and his remarkable legacy. An inspiring article on Alexander Graham Bell that is sure to bring a tear to your eye. This man had great vision, and unlike today's tech giants, he was very humble, and was not out for personal glory or earthly riches. Sadly, Mr. Bell is no longer taught in school, or paid the respect he deserves.

But the telephone made a huge mark on American society https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/telephones-were-silenced-one-minute-after-alexander-graham-bell-died-180964296/ "When we think of the telephone and its inventor we likely think of Alexander Graham Bell. On March 10, 1876, at the age of 29, Bell spoke to his fellow worker Watson positioned in another room, uttering the famous words over the new device that would change the world: “Mr. Watson—Come here—I want to see you.” http://www.tomorrowsworld.org/magazines/2016/november-december/the-man-who-worked-with-all-his-might Mr. Bell In 1947, the Bell System honored the 100th anniversary of Alexander Graham Bell's birth with a long (for a Bell System film) biopic. The half-hour film starred Raymond Edward Johnson as Bell and Mason Adams as Thomas A. Watson.

This booklet details The Office of The President, The Senate and House, Electoral College, and that it is important for every legal, and qualified citizen to vote, and not ignore their solemn duty. Americans have fought and died so that legal citizens of our great nation can vote. Making Of A Citizen Published by Mountain States Telephone & Telegraph, this booklet from the early 1960s is an insightful documentation on how the US Election system works (if done honestly). One of the basic precepts of our government is that it derives its "just powers from the consent of the governed." As individuals, we give these "just powers" to our elected representatives who carry out the functions of government for us. In no time in our history is it more imperative than now, that we as legal U.S. citizens vote for the candidates that will stand for Life, Liberty, Freedom, and the Rule of Law, and not lawlessness. In one election we could loose it all. THE LEAST WE CAN DO IS VOTE!
