An accident...a sudden illness...
One of the first things you do is summon medical
help, by telephone.
In an emergency your telephone gives you
prompt and priceless aid. Just knowing it is there,
ready to serve you day or night, is a comfort in
itself. It's hard to put a value on these things. Yet
your telephone provides them all—and more—at
minimum cost.
