END CALLING Anyone seeing the amount of parcels,' letters and cards piling up in Post Offices this time of year can easily under- stand why the Post Office Department so strongly urges people to "mail early for Christmas." The Bell has a similar problem at Christmas, but no graphic way to show it. From seeing a Long Distance cable, it's impossible to tell that all the circuits in it are being used and that some customers are waiting to get their calls through. Yet, at Christmas, this can unfortun- ately happen. The reason is not hard to understand. Long Distance Lines are fully adequate for any normal day, when, in fact, hundreds of thousands of calls (mostly of a business nature) are carried. But,. at Christmas, a family pattern of calling emerges all at once, with the result that a huge number of calls are made between towns that call one another only infrequently throughout the rest of the year. Since Long Distance lines are engineered to carry the regular flow of calls, rather than that for a single day in the year, they are overtaxed, and the congestion leads to delays. Constructing additional lines would be unjustifiably expensive, since they would remain idle from one Christmas to the next. ' One way to avoid delays is to make a Year End call during the week BETWEEN Christmas and New Year's- an execllent way to combine Christmas love and New Year hopes for those _close to us. Because Year End calls are spread over a longer period. they do not involve the delays that can occur on Christmas itself. And because the spirit of Christmas is still with us, but the rush is over, we have more time to relax and reflect, and grasp again the full personality of those we love, * ' * Even if you don't happen to have an extension tele- phone now, I'll bet you'll readily admit that one would certainly be handy. Maybe you've even thought about it wistfully? ? ? Well now, suppose that this Christmas you find a specially-wrapped extension under your tree. Would you make good use of it? You bet your life you would! Sure it would spoil you, but what a practical way to be spoiled! Now how about that special someone? Would their reaction be the same as yours? I mean would they really, horiest-to-goodnessly appreciate your ,thoughtfulness, and would they remember you every time YOUR extension saved them steps and trouble? Get what I'm getting at? Why not call our Business Office today and talk it over with us? AND FROM ALL OF US HERE AT THE BELL, TO ALL OF YOU AND YOURS, A MERRY CHRISTMAS • AND A HAPPY, HEALTHY AND PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR.
