WHY
We patronize the Citizens long
Distance telephone and
telegraph Exchange

Because its service is prompt and reli-
able.
1t has new lines and Modern Long Dis
tance equipment.
It's service extends all over Columbus
territory-in town, in Lowndes
County, and in the adjoining
counties of Mississippi and West
Alabama.
1t maintains genuine and aggressive
competition, giving the public bet
ter service at a lower rate than
existed before it was esta blished.
Therefore, Columbus rates are
lower than any other city of its
size in the State.
The present good service and low rates
have been obtained only through
its competition.
Its employees are experienced, dill
gent, energetic, intelligent and
courteous, and their constant effort
isto give the besttelephones service.
1t is strictly speaking a home institu-
ton, chartered under the laws of
the State of Mississippi.
1t gives its patrons extensive county

growing every month.
A trial will convince you of its merits.
