 Dear lilr. Deane :- 



After our talk last week, I have looked up your tele- 

 phone arrangement to see what would be the best thing for us to do in 

 connection with disconnecting for the summer and, also, changing to 

 the long cord on the downstairs instrument. I find that we had ar- 

 ranged last fall for new service contract for you with the idea of our 

 so-called temporary disconnection arrangement each summer. I had 

 thought, as you may recollect, that with feis* new contract, we could in- 

 stall the long cord as part of ifee- new contract, without expense to you, 

 taut I find that unless you disconnect your service entirely on short 

 term basis this spring, signing new contract in the fall again, we shall 

 have to charge you for the change of cord, which will amount to ^1.00. 



While with the settlement of yoiir contract at short term rates, 

 the charges to you will be the same as though you temporarily discon- 

 nected for a period not to exceed five months, the temporary disconnec- 

 tion has the advantage that your name continues in the directory, where- 

 as with the short term settlement, your name will disappear from the 

 directory, and you will not, therefore, be listed under a new contract 

 until the fall and winter issue, which comes out some time after you
