TELEPHONE SUBSCRIBERS IN OTHER COUN- TRIES can’t always take telephone service for grant ed the way we do in the United States. In Brazil, for instance, there are people who have been waiting 15 years for phone service. And, according to the cur rent outlook in that nation, a lot of them may have to wait at least 15 more. In Switzerland, it’s not so difficult to get a phone—the problem is with instal lation. The phone company brings a line out to your house and hands you a phone; and installing it is up to ybu! We should consider ourselves pretty for tunate. . ■ /' ; . FOR A PERSON WITH IMPAIRED HEARING, AN ORDINARY PHONE CONVERSATION CAN BE COME AN ORDEAL. All too oftert he hpars only un intelligible mumblings and parts of sentences. That’s why the Bell System has begun installing phones for the hard-of-hearing. A tiny,.thumb-operated wheel in the handpiece of the phone allows the handicapped person to “tune up” the volume of incoming calls, while other members of the family can keep the vol ume at normal range. ...... »„ * A * i * Call our Hinton Business Office for more informa tion about Volume Control telephones or about other phones developed for special problems.
