K eeping n ig h t p a tro l throughout the West, Tiun- dreds of telephone people are on duty to help meet emergencies and make sure your telephone will be ready to work for you when you want it. Many main tenance jobs are done at night while most telephone users are asleep. Lines are checked with electronic testers. Sensitive switching equipment is vacuum Cleaned to help stop trouble before it starts. a D ay o r night, workday or holiday, your telephone remains one of ypur most valuable and useful servants. In spite of postwar inflation, telephone rates have gone up far less than our costs of providing service. O n the average, rates have gone up less than ha as much m the cost of living generally. A few pennies still buy a call . . . whether it be important or routine. Your telephone still gives you a big value for your IM IM 2. In the q u iet hours o f the nig h t, operators handle relatively rew few ' calls . . . but often they are unusually important. Repairmen are on call for service on im portant lines . . . doctors, hospitals and the like. Ga- ragemen check and equip trucks for the next day’s installation rounds. Building service workers make offices spic and span.
