Excerpt from Bell Telephone Quarterly, 1929, Vol. 8 Not so long ago men cried their wares in the streets reaching customers perhaps a block away. Now men cry their wares over the radio reaching customers across a continent.

In a very short time this com bination has become an essential part of the social and commercial life of the nation.
