Many telephones are being rung by mistake because some folks fail to take proper precau- tions when telephoning. A study of the condi- tion shows that calling numbers from memory is the most common cause of these wrong- number calls. \ When in the least doubt about a number, it is always best to check with your directory—be sure you have the right number in mind, then give it to the operator. Speak distinctly, with lips about half an inch from the mouthpiece. . , It takes only a moment to look up a number, and doing so will frequently save time and spare you the en:barrassment of getting someone to the phone by mistake. The telephone company and your neighbors, who are bothered daily by wrong-number calls, will appreciate your cooperation in correcting the trouble.
