Why is it that idle women are usually dissatisfied? Do LaSalle Street experts make the Silly Little Mistake? Absolutely not. No astute money manager would place his station-to-station Long Distance phone calls through the Operator, when he could save money by dialing them himself. But you don't have to be a financial wiz­ ard to realize this kind of savings. Just dial direct on out-of-state calls anywhere in the U.S. except Alaska and Hawaii. During the business day, you'll save as much as 27%- just by dialing the number yourself. And you'll save even more after 5 p m. and on weekends. Next time you call out-of-state, don't make the Silly Little Mistake. Dial direct. And put the money you save to work in your portfolio.
