THE LOW COST
AN EXTENSION TELEPHONE
Do you know you can have an exten
sion telephone in your home for only
a few cents per day?
The cost is mighty small when you
consider the many advantages an ex
tension telephone provides for the
home and family. It saves time and
steps, affords privacy on the telephone,
protection in an emergency. It makes
your telephone more valuable by in
creasing its usefulness.
All you have to do is call the Tele
phone Business Office and say: “I’d
like to have an extension telephone
installed.” Why not order yours today ?
Orders for main telephone service are sometimes delayed because
of shortages of central office and other equipment, which are not
involved in the installation of extension telephones.
