1960 —AN ANNIVERSARY YEAR for the telephone’
25 years ago the first round-the-*o fd telephone call was
made in New York over a 23.000-auk circuit of wire and
radio channels.
45 years ago the first transatlantic radio-telephone trans
mission was completed between Arlington, V irginia and
the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
90 years ago Alexander Graham Bell, who started it all,
arrived in Canada from England.

And here’s a real close-to-home anniversary! Just about
ex months ago a new telephone was introduced in Georgia
—the Princess Phone.

first look at this pretty little extension phone. No wonder
it's becoming so popular. It’s so compact it takes up
practically no room at all on your bedside table, desk or
kitchen counter. The dial lights up, too. Available in
lovely pastels, or pure white. Why not make this a year
for convenience by getting Princess phones for your home
—by giving them to your family and friends on their
anniversaries. Just call us; we ll handle all the details.
