THIS IS ONE OF MANY WAYS you can learn to make better
use of your telephone service. We have several motion pic-
tures on the art of winning friends by telephone for showing
without charge to interested groups. We also have a library
of free booklets on the subject and we have commissioned
Emily Post to write a series of advertisements on good tele-
phone usage which you may have seen. We consider these
activities part of our responsibility to you as good neighbors
and good citizens of the communities we serve.
