This later was sold to the Home Telephone Company." The manager went on to say that Pacific Telephone acquired the properties of the Sunset Company in 1916 and later purchased the Home Company in 1918, which resulted in the unification of the 38 square mile exchange area. According to Perry, all telephone subscribers, friends and neighbors are invited to attend the open house festivities. Hours Frank H. Perry, Businessman Here, Passes Away Sun. Frank H.

In her discussion on the welfare of its people, she said they have a pension plan which starts at the age of 55 years with an income of $85 per month. In her reference to the working classes, the average salary is $200 per month, which is far inadequate since a suit ranges from $100 to $500, ties cost from $5 to $20 and silk material is $40 a yard.
