HEARING AIDS
-ACOUSTICON The World's FIRST Hearing Aid
When selecting a hearing aid make your first and sole consideration the QUALITY OF HEARING it gives you. Make everything else secondary. Be sure the maker intimately understands the individual problems of deafness from long years of contact and obser- vation. Be sure its representatives are thoroughly trained and will maintain a lasting interest in your satisfaction.
