No Newark business man will hes
itate to make an investment which
he knows will increase his business
and his net income, especially if
the investment is a small one.
Telephone service is just such an
investment. It's dividends are in
creased business and convenience.
This is the telephone age. People
now buy over the heads of the
crowd. The man who gets the bust
ness is the one who has adequate
telephone service.

The Nile is 3,4OO miles long, while

miles of its course does not receive a
single brook, while the Ganges all
through its course is constantly re-en-
forced by tributary streams. This may
account for the fact that the maxi
