IN 1903 – From the Lawrence Daily World of April 5, 1903: “Do you know that you can get a good telephone placed in your house for $1 per month, a better one for $1.50, and the best for $2. No delay after placing your order and no installation charges, either. … It is hard to find a man who is going to vote for the county high school proposition. The most conservative estimate puts the majority against the proposition about 5 to 1.”
