We want you to know that even

,THE best thing about your telephone service is that it’s
home town service—tailor-made for you at the switch-
board by people who live and work here.
Experts can develop better methods of giving you serv-
ice. Scientists and engineers can contribute new inven-
tions and developments. Western Electric can buy and
manufacture economically for the operating companies of
the Bell System.
And all of these things can—and do—help tremendously
at the job of giving you good telephone service at a fair cost.
Yet not one of them could replace the qualities of
friendliness and neighborliness which grow out of the fact
that the men and women who operate the telephones here
belong to and are paijt of this community.
