When You Hear

plateful of good old corned beef and
oabbage.”

Face to Face Courtesy
GOOD telephone service depends largely upon mutual court
esy. The telephone is more useful to those who talk as if
face to face, for civility removes difficulties and facilitates the
promptest possible connections.
As in other intercourse, it often happens that two or more
people wish to talk with the same person at the same time.
Without courtesy confusion is inevitable, and the confusion is
greater when the people can not see each other.
The operators must be patient and polite under all circum
stances, but they will do better work if they meet patience
and politeness on the part of telephone users.
The Bell Telephone service enters intimately into the social
and business life of each individual. The best results come
through the practice of mutual courtesy.
