    The Family Budget
The family budget and ours are alike in
one particular—outgo must not exceed in
come if success is to be attained.
Telephone revenues must be sufficient to
meet all expenses such as taxes and wages.
They also must provide a fair return on the
value of the property.
Otherwise, reliable service cannot be pro*
vided to the public atui additional money can
not be obtained from investors to expand tbs
business to meet the increasing demands for
service.

THE MOST BEAUTIFl L FEMALE SKYSCRAPERS OF THE WORLD i
There is something in the air above the clouds that develops beauty.
Cosmetics and lotions make some women appear beautiful, but flying
over the clouds with the purest ozone fanning the cheeks evidently is
superior to any of the great number of beautifiers flooding the market.
Nine different nations are represented by these nine women who are
blessed, not only with daring, but with beauty and intelligence of the
highest type. In the progress of aviation each one of the women shown
here is doing for her country what many a man would not dare to do. The
old idea that women were lacking in the nerve to do the things once at
tributed only to men has been shattered a long time ago. Today, there is
scarcely a field once ruled over by men alone, that some daring woman
has not entered. Each of the women pictured here is the foremost
aviatrix of her country and the fame of each has spread to the four
quarters of the world. Top Row, left to right, Margot Soriano of .Spain;
Maryse Bastie of France; Thea Rascheof (Germany. Center Row, left to
