Telephone service, linking together city and country and shore,
is never more appreciated than during the summer months.
While the business man is confined to his desk in the city, the
telephone keeps him in touch with wife and family, though they
may be many miles away, suInHneTIng at sone pleasant resort.
During his own vacation the business man reiesupon the tele-
phone. He is free from care, for he Inows that he can be reached
at one by telephone should important matters require his attention.
At the vacation home also, the telephone proves so convenient
in arranging games and outings with friends and ordering SUD-
plies from the distant markets.
All this is possible because Bell Telephone service is universal.
