Be Quick To Treat
Bronchitis
Chronic bronchitis may develop If
your cough, chest cold, or acute bron-
chitis is not treated and you cannot
afford to take a chance with any medi-
cine less potent than Creomulsion
which goes right to the seat of the
trouble to help loosen and expel germ
laden phlegm and aid nature to
soothe and heal raw, tender, inflamed
bronchial mucous membranes.
Creomulsion blends beechwood
creosote by special process with other
time tested medicines for coughs.
It contains no narcotics. i
No matter how many medicines
you have tried, tell your druggist to
sell you a bottle of Creomulsion with
the understanding you must like the
way it quickly allays the cough, per-
mitting rest and sleep, or you are to
have your money back. (Adv.)

BUILDING A FUTURE
t> IN THE SOUTHWEST
Never in the history of the telephone
industry has there been such a demand
for telephone service as there is today
and your telephone company is engaged
in the most extensive program of ex-
pansion ever before undertaken. It
takes more than just the telephone in-
strument to provide telephone service.
It requires central office switchboards,
outside cable, wire, poles, etc.
Your telephone company is providing
telephone service to new applicants at
the rate of 1,000 new telephones in-
stalled each month, which is meeting
the increased demand for service.
Since V-J Day, additions to central
offices have been made in hundreds of
communities, new dial central offices
have been opened, over a million and
one-quarter feet of cable have been
placed in exchange plants, and new and
additional long distance toll circuits
have been provided.
These improvements have helped to
meet the increased demand for local
and long distance service, which is
today more than 140,000,000 local calls
and 4,500,000 long distance calls per
year.
These improvements have been made in
the face of serious labor, material and
equipment shortages. Your telephone
company is now in the process of even
greater expansions which will permit
more efficient telephone service for the
great southwest.
