LADY ATTENDANT FEEL FUNERAL HOME John A ft Prank Perl Ambulance Service PHONE 2675 B K1 lVr-4'rtill ejaawaiaiil II l1V-,-,rVS.-Vll RVaUiaUjrl.V ...SI, I Look Up Number Before Dialing, Is Phone Plea Due to the fact that many tele phone numbers in the Medford exchange were changed when new directories were issued this month, R. B. Hammond, local manager of the Pacific Tele phone and Telegraph company, asked today that all telephone users destroy their old director ies at once, and consult the new issues before dialing numbers. The same rule of "look before you dial" applies to persons who have memorized frequently used numbers. Hammond explains the changes as necessary in order to maintain the best service and supply additional service to es sential industries, with the short age of material curtailing ad ditional line installations. The adjustment was made coinciding with delivery of the new direct ories in Medford, Ashland and vicinity. Methodists Train For Mission Task Chicago,' July 26.
