How Fast Would We Fix Your Phone?
If you're like most people, you probably can't recall
the last time anything went wrong with your phone
service. Today's phone equipment is built and nudntained
to provide fast, dependable service, 24 hours a day. How-
ever, should something happen to your phone service, you
naturally want it back in working order as fast as humanly
possible. We do, too. That's why our service people work
with strict time tables. A time clock tells the time, a
service call comes in, and then dependent upon the work
load or disposition of the work force, a man will arrive
at your doorstep. This is generally only a matter of a
few hours. (Emergencies, of course, are taken care of
at once). While we -constantly check to prevent trouble
before it happens—once in a while something may go
wrong. If it .does, you can be sure we'll fix it fast—at no
extra cost to you.

Phone Saves Lady in Distress
We read in a news item
recently about a housewife
who was busily cleaning
her kitchen and suddenly
found herself trapped. She
was trying to clean the
space between the refrig-
erator and her kitchen
counter. Without think-
ing she squirmed her way
into the narrow slot . .
and managed to get thor-
oughly stuck. But right
there on the wall over the
counter was her handy
kitchen extension phone. She called the police who sirened
out to the rescue . gave the refrigerator a few hearty
heaves and released the lady. It's one reason for having
a kitchen extension that hadn't occurred to us.

Is There Someone Across the Miles?
Is there someone you'd like to talk to . . . some-
one across the miles you haven't seen for some time?
It may be the folks back home, a son or daughter away
at college, or an old friend you've missed over the years.
There's nothing like hearing the warmth of their familiar
voices again . . . the excitement of exchanging homy
bits . of news . . . the comfort of knowing they're all
right.' Why not pay them a personal visit by long dis-
tance telephone? It costs less than you think. And
remember, long distance Area Codes help to speed your
calls. They're listed in the front pages of your phone
book.

When you bank
we try
to be a little
more human
about it
Back in the old days, young people were sup-
posed to be seen and not heard. They were expect-
ed to keep their pennies in a piggybank and not
worry about real bank accounts until they grew
up. Nowadays, children are as welcome in The
Bank as grownups, and just as likely to have
savings accounts with money in them too! We at
The Bank deal with young people like this every
day—and think of them as very special cus-
tomers, worthy of our most attentive service.
Have your youngsters drop into the nearest
branch of The Bank, or come in yourself, and
see. You'll find that our people really make the
happy difference in banking.
