September 20, 1921 TELEPHONE DIRECTORY for Table Rock, headed as a list of people who the Hello Girls answer questions for. Hello Girls was a name sometimes given to telephone operators. The were also referred to as "Central," as they worked at a central office and office answered the phone saying "Central" rather than "Operator." Can't get the list any bigger or more clear, sorry. If you want a phone number, maybe the 1913 directory will do....
