Remember way back wien
dried fruits were duty foods?
Mother stood over us and made
us eat our prunes no matter
how much we hated them for
being tough and flavorless.
Old-fashioned ways of drying
and packing turned out fruits
that were hardly delectable.
Today, fruit drying methods
have improved until a modern
prune wouldn't recognize his
shriveled old cousin of bygone
days. Plump glossy prunes,
bright golden apricots and pea
ches, and giant raisins are in
valuable for satisfying the hun
ger for fruit and longing for
color and attractiveness during
long winter months.
Dried fruits are a good source
of iron, and prunes, apricots and
peaches are rich in vitamin A.
Their high food alue should earn
them a place on every table and
their naturally high sugar con
tent makes them a desirable
dessert, what with sugar so
scarce. And come right down to
dollars and cents cost it's worth
remembering that one pound of
dried fruit represents 3 to 7
pounds of fresh fruit as it comes
from the vine. There is no waste
from spoilage either. That's real
value, Isn't it?

Speaking naturally is lesson one in becoming a tele,
fihone operator . . . and literally thousands of girls have
learned it during the last year in the biggest operator
training program in our history. Girls in training get a
thorough grounding at regular pay ... a basic course
that lasts anywhere from three to six weeks.
- f
On special practice boards like this a trainee is given
hundreds of practice calls . , . everything from the sim
plest local rail to a complex string of diem. She learns
to meet various situations . . . learns poise and skill and
confidence. Even when she becomes a full-fledged "voice;
with a smile", she can call on a friendly supervisor for
help on unusual calls, when she needs it.
In the weeks to come, girls now in training wit! take
their places at switchboards, and as fast as additional
equipment becomes available, thousands more will be
trained to handle your calls. For we intend to do every
thing we can to bring the rabidly growing Pacific Coast
an even better telephone service than ever before . . . just
as soon as is humanly possible.
An ever-improving telephone service at the least
cost consistent u ilb good wages and working conditiom
for our employees and a reasonable return to the thou

Worth Waiting For!
You, too, are going to get a lot more than you figured on when
the day comes that none of us has to wait for needed electrical
equipment, and your dealer can deliver those
appliances you've been wanting. For the new
electric ranges, dishwashers, ironers, and
refrigerators . . . now rolling off production
lines ... are a lot more beautiful and
efficient than ever before. They'll mean extra
hours of leisure and comfort. And not only
VMSPM that ... they're going to cost a lot kas
to operate than you figured on . . . for PP&L
electric rates are only half the national average.
Yes, the new electric appliances ARE worth waiting and saving for;
