THE TELEPHONES
BROADER FIELD

You know the telephone
mechanical ingenuity. But
do you know the ingenuity
Of its every day uses.
Ordinary uses of the tele-
phone are pretty well under
stood; but there is an enor-
nous field of long distrance
telephone service just out
side the ordinary, every day
uses Of the average family.
Many families get twice,
three times. five fold and
even ten fold the real service
from the telephone that
Others do. They have no
advantage over their neigh
bors, being subscribers to the
same Bell service. BUT they
are ingenious. They turn to
the long distance telephone
in emergencies. They en-
ploy long distance to give IN
creased convenience, to re-
lieve anxiety, to bind the
family together in spite Of
separation, to promote social
life. share happiness, express
sympathy and enlarge their
interests on every hand. To
them the telephone is far
more than a convenience for
ordering groceries.
These wider uses of the
telephone are important.
And, by the way. long dis
tance messages are not as
expensive as you may think.
Call Long Distance and
inquire about rates.
