LEFTOVERS HELP CUT COSTS

—Yes, and keep your phone hill down, too! Here's how: We save scraps of leftover copper wire and cable, and periodically melt

them down in big furnaces. The copper salvaged is then used to make new wire. It's one example of the ninny ways we salvage materials wherever possible, to help keep telephone costs low.

HOW TO BE IN when you're out: one way is to use a telephone answering service! You'll be in good company. Answering ser-vice customers include doc-tors, repairmen, salesmen who are often away from their offices —even stores that take orders after busi-ness hours. Some answer-ing bureaus offer "wake up"

services for customers, to make sure they aren't ignoring the alarm clock! There are 140 answering services in Michigan alone. They are not owned or operated by Michigan Bell, but they do play a part in giving many of our customers Ihe fullest possible use of their phones.
