Sis going to her first dance. Those little events in your everyday life are what mean so much to your loved ones faraway. And what better way to share them than by a Long Distance phone call?

And, Long Distance rates are low . . . even lower when you call station-to-station . . . with extra bargains after 6 P.M. and on Sundays. WHY WAIT? The other day I heard a young housewife eagerly describing her "dream kitchen" "enough cabi nets ... a dishwasher ... a built-in oven ... and a phone right there at my elbow!" Fortunately, you don't have to be able to afford your "dream kitch en" to enjoy the wonderful convenience of a kitchen phone. It's available right now for less than a nickel a day.
