HURRY CHRISTMAS! Well, will it be merry—or hurry
—around your house? Why not make it merry by leaving
a lot of holiday duties up to your telephone! For instance,
why not use your phone to order gifts, to shop for just
about anything you need during the holidays. Ring up the
bakery, the florist, the grocer from your easy chair! Don’t
forget the phone’s a quick and cheery way to invite people
to parties. And with Long Distance, you’ve got the fastest
way possible to make plans, greet old friends, and visit
the folks who can’t get home for the holidays. So, use
your telephone—“for all it’s worth”—at Christmas time,
