Did it ever happen that
you dident look in the di
rectory before you called a
number and the wrong bell
Avas rung and an innocent
subscriber disturbed
When the wiong party
answered probably you said
Central gave me the wrong
number Of course she did
If you called the Avrong
number why shouldent you
get it
Another time perhaps
you thought you remembered
and you called the wrong
number
Probably the next mo
ment the right number
came to mind You quickly
signaled central and asked
for the correct number
Meanwhile the party of
the number you first called
ansAvered when his bell rang
He got no reply You were
to blame
Wont you in the interests
of better service to yourself
and others look in the di

the right number before you
