The High Cost of Service

Under all oiroumetanoes the public demands adequate and dependable tele.

phone service. To meet this demand throughout our territory, immense sums have been added to our plant investment during the last few years.

During this period the cost of every item of material that

phone business has been increased.

The result is not only an abnormally high investment, but it means, also, that the cost of keeping our plant alive and working ^is proportionately high.

This confronts us with the problem of making our revenues balance with operating and maintenance costs and dividend requirement&

Inadequate revenues imperil plant efficiency, which, efficiency ard ^{acleqmcy of the service.}

And that ^{is a} pru.C.eiu in which the pkolic and the Company are ^mutually interested.
