What you hear is an Automatic Answering Set. It could happen when you call a business man at lunch time. Or a doctor after office hours. These remarkable machines give callers a recorded greeting, take a recorded message. They’re being used more and more in offices these days. And in homes, too By guarding against “lost” calls, they make your telephone service more useful than ever . . . worth more to you. One of the most useful ways to use your telephone is for shopping. Especially when you’re guided by the Yellow Pages of your telephone book. At a loss for gift or decorating ideas? Try browsing through the Yellow Pages. See if you don’t come up w’ith an answer. Have a definite service or item in mind? Page headings —in easy alphabetical order—will lead you right to it. Remember, whatever you need, you’ll find it f«i8t in the Yellow Pages.
