"Hello!" is a Very
Ungraceful Word
"Helio" is an ungraceful and rude little word,
tending in telephone conversation to provoke cross
tjuestions, breed ill temper and start telephone talk
"against the grain."
The ptoper way to answer your telephone is to
give the name of your firm, your residence, or your
own name, for example:
"Jones and Company Mr. Jones talking" or
"M r. Smith's residence John Smith speaking."
That method identities you at once and is at
the same time courteous and direct, saving time and
useless conversation. Try it.
