The second floor room of the Bank! Building, over the postoffice, will be equipped with machinery by the | company, and in the neighborhood | of 60 women and girls will be ac- cepted for this training, with pay, | with the company reserving the | right to accept those whom it deems best qualified.

That's the dial telephone’s only way of saying “Number please” . . . its only way of saying to you: “O.K. to dial.” So listen for that hum-m-m-m— please — before you dial. There's trouble ahead if you don't. Your call goes astray. You get a wrong num- ber or no number at all. You waste your time by having to dial again. You tie up dial equipment that could be working for others. If there's a delay before the steady hum-m-m-m gets going, we hope you'll understand that the dial mechanisms that put your call through are all in use . . . and that equipment shortages and the greatest volume of telephone calls in our history make this sometimes unavoidable.
