We are working hard to provide tele phones for everyone who wants one, and to rebuild our service until it is again the finest in America. . Before we can accomplish these objec tives, we must install a tremendous amount of equipment—wires, cable, switchboard», buildings and so on. We call this equip ment "plant". We are installing this new equipment as rapidly as we can secure it but many critical items such as lead and copper are »till difficult or impossible to obtain. During the year of 1947, we promise to "grow" as much new "plant" and a» many new phones as the supply of incom ing materials will allow. “ chevron Gas Station Station No. 5056 Eddie Thornton and V.
