Did You Anticipate This
Remarkable Growth?

Each of you, event you go no further about the city than
from your homes to your work, have noticed the stir and activ-
iy Of growing Memphis.
In stores and banks, in crowded hotels you have observed
to some degree how your city has grown.
But the best index of all to a citys growth is the telephone
development.
1t required 5000 new telephones SO far this year to ham
die the increased business. Even this large number is not all you
want. Another thousand or two telephones will be taken on
quickly at the rate we are providing equipment and facilities to
care for them.
We want this additional business. We need the revenue 1t
would bring. You wouldn't refuse business if you could posi-
bly, handle it. Neither would we. -
Back in 1917 we planned for Memphis normal growth by
placing orders for central office equipment to meet our needs.
We didn't get it until May, 1919, and as fast as it was installed
it was used up by waiting patrons.
Few if any people could foresee the great demand for Of
fices, business places and homes which now confronts Memphis.
No one could anticipate such a remarkable growth. Since your
aStute business men and investors could not see it, is it strange
that we in turn did not? ,
All this increased population and prosperity meant more
operators and more workers for the telephone company. We
had to compete with you for help and we were at a dSadvan-
tage because ours is a public utility with fixed rates.
Every business house in Memphis wants more men and
women. The cry of every industry is for n re and better work
ers. If we didn't have any, there would be more than 700 for
you, but you would have no telephone service, so all of us must
divide the available workers and let no business or industry sf-
fer unduly.
Telephone service is essential to the health, welfare and
safety of the community. Patience with the telephone workers
who are inexperienced and your encouragement of those who
are striving to meet your expectations, will reward you
In this way the telephone men and women of Memphis, who
are so deeply concerned about this problem, will gain fresh coxr-
age in their efforts TO improve the service of you - their friend
and neighbor.
