Telephone Saved Child’s Life
One of the children fell into a water tank on
an Alabama farm and was rescued unconscious and
apparently lifeless. The frantic mother rushed to
the telephone and called the doctor six miles away.
He told her what to do and started at once, but
before he arrived the child was out of danger.
The protection of women and children is only
one of the chief values of the telephone on the
farm.
You can have this service at small cost. See
the nearest Bell Telephone Manager or send a
postal for our free booklet.
