Mother-daughter ana lather-son combinations aren't unusual at Southwestern Bell.
There are many reasons for this
happy state of affairs. For one thing,
ours is a good company to work for.
For another, we offer a real opportu-
nity for serving the public, an op-
portunity that calls for a true "spirit
of service." We're pleased and proud
so many of our Kansas employees
suggest a telephone career to their
children. By doing so, they help in-
sure the business will be in good
hands for many years to come. We
think this is a good thing for
Southwestern Bell and for our
customers.
