9. Four posts were vacated by
resignations. Special elections
usually attract many candi-
dates, since the high man
wins without a runoff . . . U.
S. Dept. of Agriculture has es-
timated the 1959 Texas cotton
crop at 4,500,000 bales. This is
lower than previous estimates
but better than the 4,308,000
bales ginned in the state last
year. Average yield per acre
will be about 337 pounds . . .
One-eighth, or six of the 48
persons executed for crimes in
the U. S. last year, were exe-
cuted in Texas. California,
Georgia and Ohio also had six
executions each. So far this
year Texas has had only three
executions.
Army enlistees
get early leave
Men enlisting in the U. S.
Army from now through New
Year's Day may request as
much as 15 days' leave before
reporting back for Army ser-
vice, according to Master Ser-
geant Bill Barker, Army Coun-
selor.
This leave policy allows

TELEPHONI
TALK
i by Joe McDonald, Manager
The room had a deathly quiet about it. Outside an early
morning breeze made an eerie whistle through the crack in the
window. Scrap paper was scattered about and dust was on the
floor where once furniture had been. The walls were bare and
the whole room looked neglected, outcast, forgotten.
But in the middle of the debris and discarded equipment
stood the old switchboard—proud and erect. I thought to myself
. . . you have been a miraculous piece of machinery—never
complaining—always eager regardless of time or circumstance
to do your job. You were at one time an invention of the hour
... an ingenious product of man's mind, but now you have
become history . . . because man's ideas do not stand still.
They march on to find faster and better ways of doing things.
As I turned away and started to lock the door for the last
time I felt proud that we at Bell Telephone Co. help make
history and grow with man's communication needs.
ANNOUNCE YOUR GIFT WITH A MINIATURE TELEPHONE
I was walking down Main Street the other day, looking at
all the nice things our Canadian businessmen have on display
for Christmas in their store windows, and just about every-
thing I saw would make a mighty fine gift for somebody.
But I guess that's where the Christmas shopping problem
comes in—picking the right gift for the right person.
If you're always stumped about what to give, I know a gift
that's always right—right for Christmas, right the year 'round.
It's an extension telephone in color. A color phone beautifies
the home and is a faithful servant in the kitchen, the bed-
room, the den—wherever it's needed most.
Now, here's real news. When you order one as a gift—for
your wife, your teenagers, a relative or a friend—we'll send
you a miniature color phone absolutely free. Packed in a
colorful box and ready to be placed under the Christmas tree,
it's a wonderful way to announce to that lucky person that a
color telephone is on its way.
Call the telephone company today to order an extension
telephone in color, and get that miniature phone while the
supply lasts.
HOLIDAY GREETINGS
I'd like to take this opportunity, on behealf of all of us here
at the telephone company, to extend our very best wishes to
you for a "Merry Christmas" and a "Happy New Year."
Call by number. It's twice as fast.
