How tc aie three
out-of-town phone calls
'a 4"-
Yo' s
By making your Long Distance calls station-to-station
you can take advantage of bargain rates—about A 1
lower than for person-to-person calls This means
you can make three out-of-town calls for about the
price of two Start the station-to-station habit with
your next Long Distance call and save money
I
(
Heroes how easy It Is to matte
a station-to-station call
Just tell the Long Distance operator:
The city you're calling
The telephone number you're calling
Like this: "Chicago SKyline 4-9981"
If you don't know the number just give the operator
the name and address of the party you're calling and
tell her: "Please make this call station-to-station"
That's all there is to it The operator will give you
the number to jot down for future use and your call
will be charged at the lower station-to-station rate
for the price of two
