in Absence 
Your friends and your 
loved ones are only as far 
away as the nearest tele- 
phone. 
You like to think of [RE 
them enjoying themselves 
at the seashore, in the 
country or in the moun- 
tains, even though the 
claims of business hold | 
you in town. 
Absence need not mean 
total separation, however. 
There’s a wonderful com- 
fort and pleasure in chat- 
ting with them daily by 
telephone. Andthe sound 
of your voice will be hailed 
with joy. 
There will be no toll charge on a 
Particular Party Cail if you are not 
connected with the person whose 
name you have given to the Toll 
Operator.
