Those who resolve to
be good telephone neighbors get the most out of their
party line service. They keep conversations brief, hang
up quietly when they find the line in use, and give up
the line in case of emergency. Everybody thus enjoys
greater convenience, more privacy and the reassuring
knowledge that they can call help quickly whenever it
is needed. Telephone users find it pays to be good tele-
