B. Gates, local commercial manager, has announced that a new billing plan will be introduced in the suburban territory, beginning April 1. The new plan is known as "Rota- tion Billing" and means that instead of all suburban subscribers' bills going out on the first of the month, the bill- ing will be divided into six equal groups, each group of bills being mail- ed shortly after their date. The dates of the bills in the six groups will be the first, sixth, eleventh, sixteenth, twenty-first and twenty- sixth. Improves Service Mr. Gates stated that because the new billing plan permits of spreading the work of preparing bills through- out the month, it will be possible for the telephone company to give to its patrons better billing and counter serv- ice. The new billing plan also gives the subscriber a more up-to-date bill. The toll charges on each bill include items up' to the date of the bill, in- stead of such items appearing on bills only up to the 15th of the preceding month, as has been the practice. According to the new plan, telephone subscribers in the Winnetka exchange will receive their bills dated the sixth of each month. Two Bills in March In starting the new plan, it will be necessary for the Telephone company to send two bills during the month of March to those patrons whose bills will be dated, in the future, the six- teenth and twenty-first. Likewise, it will also be necessary, during the transition from the present method of billing to the new plan of billing, to include to]l and service charges for periods varying from fifteen to fifty- five days in length. However, after this transition has been completed, which will be about the sixteenth of April, bills will cover the regular pe- riods, namely; the month preceding the date of the bill for toll items, and the month period beginning with the date of the bill for service charges. Mr. Gates said each patron will re- ceive a notice with the March 1 bill and also with thé next subsequent bill. This notice explains the plan and in- dicates the period covered by the charges on the bills in the future. The employes of the Telephone company have been schooled as to all details, and will be ready to answer questions regarding the new plan, it is explained.

"Dining in a cafeteria is just like marketing. One picks out what he likes best. I find it a fascinating experience to gointo a cafeteria, look over all the food, and then select just what I want without any more ceremony." Thousands of Plaza patrons con- cur in Lady Manners' opinion. Library Plaza Gafeteria LT ¢ ORRINGTON AVENUE just south of Church Street in the Library Plaza Hotel
