Above and beyond the service the Telephone gives to individuals and cor
poradons it is given credit for a tremendous amount of progress which
states and communities make as they grow and develop in the passing
years. ~
In Wyoming the Telephone has kept long step in advance Of the needs
of each locality served by the Bell System.
Buildings have been erected, exchanges installed and circuits constructed
long before the actual need nr them has arisen. That is merely part Of
telephone policy.
Telephone equipment installed, ready to serve, makes the transaction of
business easy and economical makes neighbors Of a great city and holds
together n a single group all the people of the state and, for that matter,
of the whole hemisphere.
The Mountain States Telephone and Telegraph Company is proud ofits
part in the development of Wyoming. It's prouder still Of its plans for
the future. H
