OUTGUESSING A GROUP OF YOUNGSTERS on their way to or from school requires special alert-ness, special skill, on the part of every driver. That's why Michigan Bell's safe driver training program

gets extra emphasis right now. Actually, traffic safety education is a year-round program with us, required of every employee whose job includes driving a com-pany car or truck. It's one of the most important ways in which we try to be good citizens and good neighbors.

IN A STEW about lots of errands t o do —when you have to stay home a n d cook a meal, t oo? If so, you need a handy ki tchen extension p h o n e ! W i t h a k i t c h e n phone you can o rde r g ro -ceries, cal l a TV r e p a i r m a n ,

check up on he youngsters at a ne ighbor 's house, ask if that dress ir the a d comes in b l u e . . . a i d stil l keep your eye on what ' s cook ing .

"FAST AND ACCURATE" - that's the motto of Michi-gan Bell's Long Distance Operators when they take down information concern-ing calls you place through them. They use an "elec-trographic penci l" that writes at the merest touch, glides swiftly to the next line. A specially designed card is used for recording the exact information for each call. Of course, in

many areas, customers can dial most of their calls direct. But it's nice to know that your calls placed through the Operator, too. will go through swiftly and accurately.
