But the telephone belongs to a newer era, and telephone accounting is as modern and as accurate as is humanly possible/ The men and women who do the accounting work are careful and take every precaution to avoid mistakes. For they know that errors sometimes cause misunder- '■ standings. When mistakes do occur — and they are bound to occur once in a while — every effort is made to adjust them.
