If we want improved service, we've got to pay for it. Where have we heard that before'? By Elaine Townshend of the year. the Post Office may be flooded with letters that sound more like fond farewells than sweet hellos. Business people, who de- pend on the mail to keep their finances flowing, stand to lose even more than the average citizen. They may be forced to pass their extra cost onto their customers, and so on and so on. Of course, we must remember what we were told when the postal in- ai: It is faster, more satisfy- ing and almost as economical to pick up the telephone. At least, it was. Like a stern parent who caught her kids with their fingers in the cookie jar, she slapped our wrists and slapped our phone bills with an increase. Monthly rates for business and residential services are on the way up, and that long distance feeling is becoming more acute. We'll probably think twice, three or even four times before letting our fingers do the walking. We may try to put off the urge to hear that friendly hello from someone far away. Maybe we should try to save our dollars for the ul- timate in communication - a personal visit. Wouldn't it be great to talk over old times at our leisure? Wouldn't it be be more rewarding to see for ourselves how old friends have changed rather than staring at snap shots? By the time, we've saved enough for a visit our memories could be shot. But, for shorter jaunts, what could be more en- joyable than hopping in the car for a Sunday visit? One stop at the gas pump could answer that question. Still, we can overcome these communication problems. All it takes is in- genuity. Perhaps we should set a time, synchronize our watches, and at the exact se- cond. stick our heads out the door and all holler, "Hello! Hello!" • MR. AND MRS. LAWRENCE MASON Mr. Harold W.
