Back of your telephone and of each of the other one- and one-quarter million telephones operated by the Illinois Bell Telephone Company, stand the service and the organization of 30,000 trained, experienced and women. Operators, linemen, engineers, switchboard and cable specialists, business executives, collectors, stenog- raphers, motor vehicle drivers, all these and more are represented in the army of telephone people, each with the common objective--adequate, satisfactory and con- tinuous telephone service to the public. The efficient loyalty and teamwork of the men and women behind these telephones are assurance that the service will be continuous and adequate every hour of the day and night--now and in the future. I~ "A very great factor in the continued progress and improvement of telephone service is the in- tangible but quite real spirit of service that has become a tradition in the telephone business."
