Title
Welcome to the Midway Telephone Company
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- The communications act of 1934, as enacted by the United States Congress, was designed to assure universal telephone service at a reasonable cost to all people, regardless of race, creed or location. The act itself did nothing to help people in an area from Covington to Trout Creek, in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, to get telephones; it was a combination of the right people being in the right place, with a loyal and willing populace to back them, that enabled Midway Telephone Company to grow and prosper in an area that was considered unfeasible to serve. With no growth center, no major industry, homes scattered here and there and everywhere, it was no wonder other companies did not desire the area. Fools walk in where angels fear to tread. Nevertheless, we succeeded.
