BACK TO WORK! Every year in the U. S. nearly a
million telephone spring cords lose their stretch after heavy
use. But we don't throw them away. We send most of
them to a Western Electric center, where they go through
washing, rewinding, and heat treatments. They come back
to us good as new —ready to return to service. We figure
it's good sense —and sound economy—to make equipment
work as hard as possible for you!

IT OFTEN COSTS LESS THAN A LETTER to make a
long distance call. Seems incredible, yet this was actually
proved in a study made by American Business Magazine.
The study showed that, by the time you figure steno
graphic costs, mailing, filing and materials, the average
business tetter coats $1.70. If you’ll check our Long Dis
tance rates, you’ll see how many distant places you can
call for even less than that. What’s more—a Long Dis
tance call is usually better than a letter, because it’s faster,
more personal and gets quicker action.

The original purpose of color
ing Easter eggs probably was
to imitate the bright colors of
spring, according to research
experts with The World Book
Encyclopedia. When the Christ
ians adopted the custom, eggs
were decorated primarily in red, ,
