Your Telephone
Manager
Have you ever spent unnecessary, frustrating time search-
ing around through stacks of old papers, coupons or matchbook
covers for a telephone number that you wanted to keep and now`
seed? Then, Sometimes,lf you're lucky, you find it written on
a crumpled grocery list or envelope panel? Well, I know an
easy way to keep all those important numbers all in one
place and close to the phone. We've redesigned our handy
booklet in which you can keep all your telephone numbers
and it's called the Personal Directory. It's smart and modern
looking and though compact in size, it's large enough to hold
all the numbers that you call frequently. It has space for
names, addresses, Area Codes and telephone numbers. Just
inside the front cover is a special spot for emergency numbers.
And, we've included space for important dates you want to
remember, such as birthdays and anniversaries. ra like you to
have your free copy for I'm sure you will find it as convenient
as I do. Just dial our Business Office, 1.271-3911 and well 1*
happy to send you one—or two if you need them.
• • •
And. while I'm talking about telephone numbers, perhaps '
it's the right moment to include a reminder of a special number
list. When you're going out for the evening, here are a few sug-
gestions that may help you, and the baby sitter relax, Take a few
moments to write down the names of the places you are going,
and the phone Umbers, and the approximate times you'll be
there. Have emergency numbers, including the family doctor's,
written down, too. Chances are, the baby sitter will never need to
-use the list, but you and she know it's right beside the' phone if
needed,. Having taken these precautions, step out and have a
relaxing, • fun.filled' evening.
Recently we heard about a telephone Repairman who had
been up a pole doing some work on the telephone line. When
he started to come down the pole he saw a large, ferocious deg
growling and waiting for him on the ground. The RePtillnan
didn't panic. Instead, he just climbel back up, hooked onto a
line and called the police' on his test set. An Officer came,
pulled the menacing RoVet away, and the telephone Man
tibibeil down in safety. This is just another example of how
people get help quickly and easily with their telephonet
