More About party line
Long ago, people did not have cell phones. They used party lines to talk. Many homes shared one phone line. This was how they stayed in touch.
Now, we have our own phones. We can call who we want. We do not hear others when we talk. Party lines are not used much now.
It is fun to think about how people talked. They had to share and listen. It was a big part of life back then!
