HAVE A TELEPHONE
OF YOUR OWN
Haven't you and your family
often felt the need of a telephone in your home J
Children, especially, are likely to feel keenly the lack
of such a convenient means of communication with
their friends. And when emergencies arise, the lack
of a telephone in your home might prove not only
costly, hut serious.
A telephone, you will find, widens the horizon of
possibilities for a happier and more comfortable life
for the whole family.
Your neighbors and friends who have telephones
will be glad to learn you have one, for they know
from experience the many advantages of being in
quick, easy telephone reach. Then too, with a telephone
of your own, you will,avoid thg^embarrassment
erf having to borrow a neighbor's telephone.
When you weigh these and the many other advantages
of a telephone against the small cost, don't you
agree that it really doesn't pay to try to get along
; without one? Why wait longer to enjoy the many
1 advantages that a telephone in your home provides?
