'one QUESTION I ' I Jlecu&A. toANOTHER Your affairs arc rarely so simple, whether they are business or social in nature, , that a brief communication is adequate to settle them fully < when the other party is in another city. ' One question leads to an- | other?and that is why a threeminute long distance tele- , phone call is not only effective, but truly economical. , It is a two-way exchange of ideas. It saves time. It^llows the warm tones of youPvcicc , to express your personality. It < enables you to use a surprisingly large number of words. Best of all, it is low in cost. , Look in the front pages of i your telephone directory, or < ask. the "Lorg Distance** oj>er- J ator, for the rates on the call you would like to make. Long distance tctephon6- i rates on most calls are even lower after 7 P. M\ every night, j. and all day Sundays. But any time, to anywhere, telephone ! to get results.
