Southern Bell installed 44,840 telephones . . . enough to serve another city the size of Columbia and Florence combined. The big job, however, was making new telephones possible by constructing and enlarging buildings, in stalling central office equipment, building lines and stringing wire and cable. In all we spent more than $7,600,000 last year to expand and improve South Carolina’s telephone service. Today South Carolina has twice as many telephones as were in service at the end of World War II... twice as many long distance circuits ... three times as many rural telephones. That’s mighty important right now as the nation mobilizes for defense. In the days ahead, Southern Bell can be counted on to do its full part in defense—in South Carolina and throughout the South. J.

Wh«r« Mon«y to Expand and Improvo Sorvico Comas From It doesn’t come from the money you pay us for telephone service ... that money goes to pay wages, taxes and other operating costs. The money to build new facilities must come from people with money to invest. That’s why the future of telephone service depends on the Company's ability to pay for the use of money invested in telephone facilities. J. R. CRAWFORD SURVEYING Clinton, S. C. Dr. Fred E.
