First Christmas Tree Lights Stemming From a Telephone Switchboard
A 1900s story recalls Ralph E. Morris who banned flames near the tree after his son singed hair. He then built electric lights from switchboard lamps, soldering them to wires as a tree string. A separate note mentions a storm revealing a Yellow Pages message: Peace on earth find it fast in the Yellow Pages.
