Outdoor telephone
Here's the kind of tele
phone booth you'll see
us using in many out
door installations from
now on. And we think
you'll like it a lot. In
stead of wood, it has
a silvery-white alumi
num frame, with big
glass panels that will
give you better light
ing. You'll also find it
roomier and better
ventilated than the
wocxlen models. These
handsome new booths
cost less totakecareof,
too . . . and last longer.
They help us bring you
more and better tele
phono service at low
cost. Pacific Telephone works to make your telephone
a bigger value every day.
Save time-check doubtful
numbers before you call
you're in doubt about them. You'll complete your calls faster and
save yourself a good deal of trouble in the long run.
Here's hoping you enjoy
a Merry Christmas and
As another year draws to a
close, we hope we've been
able to bring you the kind
of telephone service during
1954 that you want and like
fast, dependable, courte
ous. And we intend to do all
we can to make it even bet
ter during 1955. Meanwhile,

booths get new look
Lots of times especially when
people are in a hurry to talk
to someone it's a temptation
to call a telephone number
they're not quite sure of. But
studies we've made show that
a caller often winds up getting
the wrong party in cases like
this. For memory can play
strange tricks with telephone
numbers. And, of course, this
means inconvenience and
wasted time. That's why we
suggest you look up numbers
in your directory whenever
