Don't let an expected phone call keep you indoors this summer if you have the chance to be out on in the garden. The Bell Chime --a telephone bell you can set to call you in three different tones—has a loud ring you can easily hear from outdoors. (And indoors, too, when those rainy days turns cowboys and indians loose in the home, or when you're vacuuming up after the var- mints). Coming in an attractive ivory or gold housing, Bell Chime also has a soft melodic tone when you want peace and quiet, or when someone's resting; plus a regular telephone ring. the patio BELL CHIME or * Of course, hearing the telephone ring and then being able to get to it in time are sometimes two different things, especially if you have impatient friends. A portable ex- tension with a weatherproof jack for use outdoors can mean it telephone right beside your cool lemonade, let you enjoy it and keep in touch at the same time without run- ning back and forth. And the same phone can serve as a handy extension inside the home as well—you just bring it in and out as you please. But when calling your friends, remember that they may be out enjoying the summer weather too -- without an extension or a Bell Chime. So it's a good idea to let the phone ring even longer than the normal Len times to give them a chance to hear and answer, HOW OTHERS DO IT As individuals, no one wants to be taken for granted. But as Bell people, we are proud when you take good tele- phone service for granted, because that means we are do- ing our job. Telephone service, however, just isn't the sane all the world over, and to prove it, here's how cus- tomers in Indonesia are told to use the phone: "The way to use the telephone differs from town to town. In most cases you will be able to ask somebody to connect you with the wanted number. If that is possible you better not fail to do so. In case you are forced to help yourself, and the telephone is not automatic, you should ask the operator to connect you. Call the operator NONA (Miss) when you can .hear she is a girl. Don't call a male operator anything. The operators are very very busy; don't push on! In case you lose your temper, the operator will connect you with a nasty colleague."
