DO IT NOW!
Why wait for a spring that's either too messy or too
gorgeous to get any work done in? NOW is the time—
when men and materials are available—to go ahead and
have that job done. For a man for winter work, contact

BEST POTS IN THE WORLD
This is an era of ever -more -elaborate abbreviations.
Where a simple "SWAK" (Sealed With A Kiss) used to
suffice on the back of an envelope, now they tell me it's
"SWAUBK" (for "Great Big" or "Grand British," depend-
ing on your upper lip).
In the telephone business, we've learned to live with
many abbreviations. Examples that are perhaps more
familiar to customers are "ANC" (All Number Calling),
"DDD" (Direct Distance Dialing), "PBX" (Privs.te Branch
Exchange).
Recently, we heard a telephone engineer say he was
working on "WATS" and "POTS". "WATS" (Wide Area
Telephone Service) is designed for companies doing a large
volume of Long Distance calling, and was familiar to us.
"POTS" we never heard of (at least not in a telephone
sense).
We questioned hint about "POTS".
"That," he said, is "Plain Old Telephone Service."
And that's still our most important business as we head
into 1964: bringing you the best "POTS" in the world.
We've got the skilled me-
chanics and the parts
needed to make all your
equipment repairs. Low
rotes, too. Call us.
