GASOLINE BUGGY Phone Service? in the interest of good telephone service the North western Bell Telephone Company is helping farmer owned companies in the communities and adjoining rural areas we serve to recondition their lines. In the past few years many of these lines have been improved—some of which had had very little attention since they were built years ago. Telephoning over them was something like trying to get along with a gasoline buggy or obsolete and worn out farm equipment. To farmers who own their telephone lines . . . Have you inspected your plant recently? Is it in good condition? Is your service O.K.? We offer to help you— 1. Inspect your lines. 2. Train your maintenance men. 3. Engineer and lay out your plant. 4. Supervise construction of your lines if you are part owner of farm telephone lines and receive switching service from one of our exchanges, just call on our manager. # NORTHWESTERN BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY ' Me save money trips. time^^^V - use the phone a lot - since our ) service is so much better The "Voice of The Frontier's" special events unit visited the fair at Chambers on Thursday and by means of tape record ing interviewed Donald Fullerton, of Amelia; Dale Garwood, of Amelia, and Gary Holcomb, of Chambers.
