She’s reaching for some small change perhaps to pay for a cup of coffee, or some candy, or her favorite magazine, It’s the kind of casual purchase we all make every day. You may not think of your telephone bill in just the , same way. Yet the daily cost of telephone service ™ is a “small change” purchase too. .The most anybody pays for a home telephone is 18$ a day; most people pay considerably less. Measure this cost against the value of your telephone’s round-the- clock convenience... the way it saves you steps, time, money. Think, too, how its usefulness has grown. You can reach twice as many people as ten years ago; and more telephones are going in all the time. Few home necessities mean as much as your telephone, or match it for all-round value.
