“Appointment” Telephone Calls A Service for Busy Men The busy man who wishes to communicate by telephone with someone in another town may indicate, an hour or so beforehand, the desired time for the call, and leave it to the toll operator to arrange the appointment. Both parties then know IN ADVANCE the time at which they will be brought together by telephone. •‘Appointment” Calls save time. They give definite personal touch with the individual named at a prearranged time convenient to both parties. The extra cost is small, ranging from 6d upwards according to distance. SPEAK BY APPOINTMENT Your Railways and Yourselves “ONE GOOD TURN DESERVES ANOTHER.” Proverbs are often unconvincing—indeed, some are contradictory—but the one quoted is right in all respects. It is the foundation of the best business and the foundation of proper social conduct. Having satisfied yourself that your railways truly serve you in accordance with their maxim of “Safety, Comfort, Economy" do not hesitate to spread your satisfaction among your friends. The more you are a good friend to the railways, the more your railways are able to be a good friend to you. Here is the friendly message of the Railways to the Public: “The More we Co-opera be, the Better We Can Operate.”
