For Rural Telephone Service One Customer Writes: "Devise some means so that if neighbours must listen in, they can at least repeat correctly what they heard." BEHIND this half-joking suggestion is one of the most serious of all causes of dissatisfaction on the part of rural telephone subscribers . . . the "listening-in" habit. If you find someone already on the line, please make it your rule always to hang up immediately, lour neighbours will appre- ciate it... and are more likely to grant you privacy when you have occasion to call.
