Warsaw Gels New Telephone Directory
The "new Warsaw telephone dl
rectory is in the mail and will be
received on or before Monday by
telephone subscribers. This was dis
closed by W. Y .Vann, local mana
ger for Carolina and Telegraph
Company. . - -
Indicative of the' ttct that more
people are getting more telephone
service will be the brand new sect
ion devoted to Beulaville. This sect
ion will list some 90 telephone sub
scribers who in the past have been
listed as rural subscribers in the
Kenansvllle section.
Vann noted that about 23 of these
Beulaville subscribers were new and
had taken telephones because of the
new dial office that Is to be placed
in operation in Beulaville on De
cember 18.
Manager Vann has requested that
telephone subscribers refer to their
new directors when making tele
phone calls to Beulaville after De
cember 18 because of new numbers
being assigned to telephones there.
In fact, he said, it is always best to
destroy old telephone directories
once you have begun using the
newly issued ones.
In addition to the new Beulaville
section, the Warsaw directory will
also have a Kenansvllle, Rose Hill,
Wallace and Faison section.
