THE MACMILLAN COMPANY,
Your Bell Telephone
Directory
GOOD telephone service is depend
ent in great measure upon your
use of the telephone directory.
Bell telephone directories are issued at
stated times during the year, that
patrons may have up-to-date lists of
telephone numbers and know of the
changes in telephone numbers of those
whom they may call.
In the "General Information" pages of
the directory is a paragraph "Tele
phone Directories," where the approxi
mate dates of publication appear. The
telephone user should compare the date
shown on the cover of his directory
with the calendar date. If, after allow
ing, under present conditions, six or
eight weeks for printing'and delivery,
he finds that he is not using the current
issue he should call the Business Office.
The Telephone Company wishes every
subscriber to have, and to use, the most
recent copy of the directory. Calling
numbers from an obsolete directory
may result in "cha7iged-number" calls,
wastes in time and effort and the use
of equipment and service at a time
when all these things are in very great
demand.
The Summer issue of the Bell Direc
tory is now being delivered.
