This view is inside the telephone exhibit building at Chicago s Lake Front Fair lastSummer. At the left is a display of automatic message accounting equipment, and anew tvpe of telephone is on a counter at the right The factors of interest that causedthe Fairs director to want this tele-phone exhibit have been amply borneout. It was the hit of the Fair, at-tracting over a million persons—77percent of all visitors. Part of thereason for this large attendance wasa location near the main gate.
