Mr James Scott has a garage in Silbury

and now he has just bought another

garage in Pinhurst. Pinhurst is only five

miles from Silbury, but Mr Scott cannot

get a telephone for his new garage, so he

has just bought twelve pigeons. Yester-

day, a pigeon carried the first message

from Pinhurst to Silbury. The bird

covered the distance in three minutes.

Up to now, Mr Scott has sent a great

many requests for spare parts and other

urgent messages from one garage to the

other. In this way, he has begun his own

private telephone service.
