Telephone
Talk
By
RAY REECE
Your Telephone Manager
WHAT HAS FIRST AID GOT TO DO WITH TELE
PHONE SERVICE? Just this. As part of his training,
your telephone installer-repairman receives first aid in
struction. Every five years he goes back for a refresher
course on the latest first aid methods and techniques. He
uses this training to serve not only his co-workers when
necessary, but often injured people in the homes he works
in aM along the highways.
* * *
John: What has two heads,
four' ears, two mouths.
./''sL 'J* is miles long?
Marsha: A telephone
conversation. Xyjy V '1
* * *
DID YOU KNOW there are 112 different sizes of tele
phone poles? The smallest is 16 feet, they go all the way
up to 125 foot, 2y 4 ton giants!
* * *
YOU’RE ALWAYS “ON THE SCENE” when you have
extension phones in convenient places. In the kitchen
where mom does the cooking. In the den where dad does
his “after 5:00” work. In the bedroom for quick, easy
answering during rest hours. For the greatest convenience
at the lowest possible cost, try extension telephones in
your home.
* * *
FAST TALK: Your voice travels through the air at about
1,100 feet a second, but by telephone it travels 186,300
miles a second ... the speed of electricity! During a
3-minute Long Distance call you can say all the words in
the average 2-page letter. If you talk slowly this would
be about 450 words. If you’re a fast talker the number
would rise to about 750. There are 267 words in the
Gettysburg address which is a rather round-about way of
proving that you can say a lot of important things for
very little money when you call Long Distance.

AAA Mobile Homes Features
Youth In Its Organization
AAA Mobile Homes was featured in the June 20th edition of
a national magazine, The Mobile Home Dealer.
This success story of AAA Mobiie Homes Corporation pointed
out the firm was founded in 1958 in Athens, Georgia, by its president,
Jackie Williams, and at that time had an inventory of 3 Mobile
Homes. Today, AAA operates a chain of offices throughout the
Southeast area and realizes an actual sales volume in excess of
$6,000,000 yearly. Athens, Georgia, still serves as home office head
quarters, and the multi-million dollar business is directed from this
locale. In this article AAA was termed as “The Growingest”
Dealership in the South.” Jackie Williams, the 28-year-old president,
was described as an “alert, articulate, fireball dealer who works an
average of 85 hours a week,” along with being an active after
dinner speaker throughout the state of Georgia and a “tireless civic
toiler.”
The success of the AAA organization is based on youth, drive
and salesmanship on the part of each employee of the firm. The
majority of the top flight sales staff are in their early 20’s and
each possesses an abundance of ambition and enthusiasm so readily
apparent in this fine organization.

IN MEMORIAM
In loving memory of our son
and brother, Aubrey R. Bankston,
who passed away three years ago,
August 26, 1961.
There is no time that we could
set for parting,
We who must remain
Are never ready for such pain
Even our prayers would be,
“Not yet!
Not yet, dear God, another day
With us let our beloved stay.”
We must believe, when falls the
blow
That wisely God has willed it
so.
—Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Bankston
and Donnie.
