Or a monster from one of those spooky movies the kids seem to like so much? Wrong both ways. These are pre-formed telephone cables. They're for the switching equipment that helps handle your calls. How are these "gentle monsters" born ? First, telephone people hammer nails in just the right places. Around this pattern sort of like a jig-saw puz zle they run thousands of wires. In the end, the whole thing's ready to fit right into a phone system. By doing wiring jobs like this in advance, we can expand service faster to meet your growing needs. 9s t V . 5 -,. ,oSf , Pr., ... r n 1 i V 4 One of the nicest things about extension telephones is their convenience as the lady shown above knows so well. When she's feeding baby, there's no need for her to run to answer the phone. She just reaches out and an swers it. You can enjoy the same step-saving conven ience with a phone in your bedroom, your den, or wher ever you spend a lot of time. With nine decorator colors to choose from, the new phones are a joy to look at, too. After a single installation charge each extension costs just $1.25 a month. So call cur business office.
