Telephone Saves Lives
of Mother and Children
Because there was a telephone handy, the
lives of a Detroit mother and her two children
were saved recently.
Awakening during the night, the Mother
found the house full of fumes from the
furnace. Too we7k to escape with the children,
she telephoned the police. The mother and
children were found almost unconscious, but
help had come in time to save their lives.
•
In emergencies, such as fire, sickness or acci-
dents, a telephone is invaluable. For keeping
in touch with friends and relatives ... for
shopping in bad weather . . . for "running"
errands and saving time and steps ... a tele-
phone is extremely useful.
You can have a telephone in your home for as
little as 8 cents a day. To place an order, or
for information, call or visit any Telephone
Business Office.
