HOW TO TREAT YOUR TELEPHONE 1. A tw isted cord can lead to trouble. Although the wires are especially designed for flexibility, too many twists and kinks may eventually break them and inter fere with service until a repairman can call. Good idea to get the curls out by letting the receiver dangle and unwind by itself-. . . then keep them oat by remembering, each time you call, not to put turns in the cord as you handle the receiver. D id you ever stop to think that your telephone is one service or piece of equipment in your home that's repaired and maintained for life at no extra cost to you? It’s one of the values included in the rates you pay for service . . . rates that make your service a real bargain today. For the telephone takes an even smaller part of the family budget than it did ten years ago. On the average, rates have gone up less 2. It’s bu ilt to take it . . . but your telephone can develop ailments if it’s dropped. So make sure the stand i( sits on is solid and is in a spot where it won’t be accidentally bumped. Other ways to help protect service: Avoid ’’gadget” attachments for your tele phone . . . keep cords clear of doorways where they may be p in ch ed . . . and always keep water away from wires and fittings.
