VALU-LINE
Money-Saving Long Distance Calls
Everyone would like
to save money on long
distance calls.. In re-
cent years several
competing long-
distance services have
claimed to provide
such service at low
rates. But most of
them served only the
major U.S. cities.
Folks in small towns
were left with only the
customary service
provided by the local
telephone company.
VALU-LINE , a
division of Business
Telephone Systems,
Inc. (BTS), now fulfills
those promises for you.
BTS was begun by
Wayne Eccles, a
Bastrop County resi-
dent, a few years ago
to provide high quality
equipment to business
and industry as an
economical alternative
to telephone company
service. Their aim was
to serve small Texas
cities. Today,
VALU-LINE an-
nounces their
expansion out-of-state
on discounted long-
distance service.
You may only be in-
terested in saving
money when you call
out of town.
