I
Hovv to Save Money
On Your Long Distance Calls
This advert Isemrnt la Intended to explain the differ
ent classes of long distance telephone strvLe and how
they mny be used to the beat advantage.
When you mako a long distance call, if you are will
ing to talk to anyone at the telephone called, you will bo
using what Is known as station-to-station Bcrvice. This
Is conalderably cheaper than other classes of service.
Station-to-station rates are baaed on a charge of about 5
cents Tor each aix miles up to 24 miles and 6 cents for
each 8 miles beyond that distance, with a minimum
charge of 10 cents.
HOW TO l'LACH A STATION-TO-STATION CAM
WThen using statlon-to-Btallon service you should
give the long distance operator the name and addres of
the business or the Individual with whose telephone you
desire connection. In addition you should give the tele
phone number If you are sure It is correct. On this class
of service the charge begins when the telephone called is
answered.
the charge on a statlon-to-station call cannot be re
versed; this Is, it cannot be charged to the telephone
called.
This is how you would place a call with the long
distance operator oo a station-to-station message: After
giving your own telephone number and name, say, for
example, "I want to talk to John Brown's residence at
Blue Springs. Nebraska," or "I want to talk to George
Anderson's store at Burchard, Nebraska." Care should
be taken to make It clear to the long distance operator
that you do not want to talk to a particular person of
persons at the telephone called as in that case it would
be a person-to-person call and you would be charged a
higher rate.
By the very nature of your requirements for long
distance telephoning, no doubt a great many of your
business and social calls permit the use of station-to-Bta-tion
service. And In addition you can more oHen uso
this cheaper clasH of Bervlce if you make Bpecial arrange
ments with thone' with whom you desire to talk, either
frequently or occasionally, to ba ready for your call at a
given time.
HOW TO M IKK A IT.ItSON.TO-lMlUSON CALL
If you ask to talk to a particular person or persona ,
over long diHtance, you will be using person-to-person
service. The charge for this service is about one-fourth
greater than for Blation-to-sitation service because the
operators may have to spend considerably more time and
hold the wires ready while they make an effort to locate
the particular piirty. This clars of Bcrvice is not only
more expensive but naturally slower than station-to-ata-tlon
service.
If you desire person-to-perHon service at a particular
hour a':d v.!k1i to make an appointment to talk at a given
time, the apMtiimiiit rale will apply.
If you wish to talk to a penon who does not have a
telephone and Tor whom a messenger must be sent, the
messenger call rate will apply.
HOW TIIK RATI 5 AUK APPIJl'.D
The following is an example showing the statlon-to-statiou
and person-to-pernon rates for distances up to
sixty-four miles:
Station- Ferson-to-Miles
to-Statlon. Person.
0-12 fO.10 ?0.15
12-18 15 .20
18-24 20 .25
24-32 25 .30
32-40 30 .40
40-48 35 .45
48-56 40 .50 "
56-64 45 .55
While the messenger call rate and the appointment
rate are not shown In the above table they are each
about 50 per cent higher than the statlon-to-statlon rate.
The report charge, which also Is not shown, is about one
fourth of the station-to-statlon rate.
TUB RETORT CHARGK
When you place a call for a particular person and
for any reason not within the telephone company's con
trol the call is not completed, or if you make a call and
are not ready to talk when the other person is ready
within one hour, a report charge is made. This is to
. cover a part of the expense of the operator's time and
the use of the wires while we are trying to And your
party.
SPECIAL NIGHT RATKS
The special evening rate between 8:30 p. m. and 12
o'clock midnight on station-to-station calls is about one
half the day rate and the night rate between midnight
and 4: SO a. in. about one-fourth the day rate. The
minimum evening or night charge is 25 cents, the day
rate applying where the charge is less than that amount.
The evening and night rates for person-to-person calls
are the same as the day rates.
The rate for any class of service may bo obtained by
calling "Long Distance."
Further information in connection with our long
distance service will be gladly furnished on request.

crV Rent Money 5 .
fe ' Lost J ,
i
A man remarked to us the other day
that he could easily have paid for a
home with the money he had expended
for rent in the time he had lived in
Alliance. Now, after a number of
years, he is compelled to vacate with
no place to go.
Don't you think it about time for you
to begin saving that $40.00 or $50.00
a month rent money?
If you can't afford to build as large
a home as you would like at this time,
perhaps you could make a start and
complete it as you feel able.
If we can be of assistance to you with
suggestions or plans, etc., we shall be
more than glad.
