He forgot that a bit of wood preservative, applied at little cost when the fence was put in, would have saved him the cost of new posts now. In the telephone business, as around your own home, we find it’s better to do the job right in the first place and then look after it. It’s the best way we know to avoid heavy repair and replacement costs, to save expense and- give you most service for your money. That’s why we treat telephone poles against rot; why we keep our trucks clean and in good repair; why we put up exchanges and offices to last. It’s common sense if we are to keep our costs down—and the price of your telephone service low.
