How To Use The
TELEPHONE

Did 1t ever occur to you that you
might not be using the telephone in the
right way?
Do you speak sideways above. be-
low, Or six inches away from the trans
mltter OF your telephone?
You should talk directly into the
transmitter-not simply at it. Keep your
lips about one inch from the mouthpiece.
Speak in an even tone 1t is not neces-
sary to shout.
There is much that can be said about
the proper way to telephone, but these
little rules will help.
