THE SMILE

When your Bell telephone operator ansve.,

your call, she says

“Number, please?’ She says it with the pleasant rising inflectior which expresses better than words her desire

to serve you.

She was chosen fo* her ability and intelligence. She was trained to be quick, careful and accurate. She has ail of these qualities. And in addition, she has “the voice with the smile.” It’s not just a part of her “stock in trade.”

The desire to serve her neighbors and friends is in

her very nature.

So she says “Number, please?”

That little word “please” takes a lot of time when

thousands of calls are considered.

But its worth all the time it takes.

For the telephone ope.-ator knows that courteiy pay*
