The BEST way to make
a Long Distance call
4*
f.
Give Long Distance operator the num­
ber, if you can. That speeds up your call
—helps others who may want to place
calls too.
If you will talk with anyone who an-
swers, call station-to-station. That costs
less, is quicker.
If you think the person you want may
have to be located, call person-to-person.
It may take longer because there may be
a delay locating the particular person
you want.

If your lights ever go out because of a blown fuse, there's
no need to call the Mountain States Power Co. and wait
in the dark or without electricity for other needs until a
service man comes. You can easily put one in yourself By
doing so, you'll not only save time but tires and gasoline
too! So be wise Always keep spare fuse plugs on hand
HERE'S HOW TO CHANGE FUSE PLUGS
(It s as simple as replacing a lamp bulb)
-1 -
Open main switch, -
(Stand on dry surface)
- 2 -
Unscrew blown fuse plug.
(Touch only top of fuse)
- 3 -
