(4) Proceed in the same way to dial the letter O (in black ) and the . again yourself at intervals instead of im- figures 9 9-9-7 and 0 (in red).

If the number called has a party line letter, dial the number in the same way, followed by the letter at the end of the. number ..

If you make a mistake while dialing, replace the receiver on its holder, wait a few seconds, and make another attempt .. 1| Before starting to dial a second call, always teplace the receiver for a few seconds.

Within a few seconds after you have completed dialing, you should hear either the ringing signal, an intermittent burr. tr-ing sound, of the busy signal, a rapid: buzz-buzz-buzz.

" If you hear in interrupted buzzing sound, as buzz bazz-buzz-buzz, it indi- cates that you Have dialed the central office designation incorrectly. Replace the

"In an emergency, or if you have trouble in dialing, or have occasion to report cases of service irregularities, yoll may call the operator for assistance byl pulling the opening in the dial for the word 'OPERATOR' Ground to the finger stop, then allowing the dial to re- turn to its normal position."

"When you have reached the oper ator, she may be' recalled, in case it is necessary to do so, by |depressing and releasing the movable part of the re ceiver holder slowly, a few times. This can be done only when you have dialed and reached the operator; on other dialed

calls, moving the receiver holder will break the connection.".

Calls from a Party Line or from a Line With an Extension Telephone

Always make sure that the line is not in use. If you do not hear; the dial tone, inquire if the line is being held by some other person. If no_response is received, replace the receNer Du it's hohler for. a. few seconds and make another-attempt.

Listen on the line while dialing, and if - "~you hear another party come in on the "line "or "hear successive clicks 'in the re- ceiver, it indicates that someone else: on . your 'line is trying to call. .

The main difference is that it is necessary to deposit a coin in order to obtain dial tone (indicating that the line is ready for you to dial).

DIRECTORIES

We earnestly desire to have telephone number information available for your use in the form most satisfactory from your viewpoint. We aim to accomplish this through the provision of at- tractive booklets for listing telephone numbers, through the distribution of borough telephone directories, and by means of Information service. We wish, however, to avoid furnishing more tele- phone directores than are needed as this not only results in inconvenience to our customers but is wasteful as well.

The | maximum of convenience is secured through the maintenance of up-to-date personal lists of telephone numbers which you have occa- sion to call. Under this plan, the lists can be kept immediately a hand and the majority of desired telephone numbers can be ascertained with the least difficulty

1 In order to meet your requirements, we shall be glad to furnish you with attractive booklets for use in preparing personal lists of telephone numbers or with any borotigh directory you may require upon application to any of our Business Offices listed on page 2.>

Need help finding more records? Try our genealogical records directory which has more than 1 million sources to help you more easily locate the available records.
