Do Unto Others As You Would Have Others Do Unto You it a saying that applies to everybody all the time and in all circumstances. Including the answering of your telephone bell. Being lax and alow in answering your telephone when it rings is another one of many reasons that your phone SERVICE is sometimes not up to the standard set by each and every individual as it should be according to their rcispective ideas, I When your phone rings, it means that someone is calling you for some definite purpose—either on business or some special reason, sickness or any one of a number of important things that arise in the course of ordinary everyday life. A prompt answer may be the most important thing to you or may be the reason for another important call going through in the minimum of I time and preventing or saving something of real importance. Therefore, it is to the mutual interest of every phone user that they make it their business to answer the telephone bell with the least possible delay and help in the common cause to give the maximum in PHONE SERVICE.
