Telephone Exchanges
Knowing the district in which the phone is located will often suggest the exchange, but when necessary make a Reminder Picture for the exchange. Following are some examples which have been used by students:
| Main—The Battle Ship | Harrison—Hair or Hare |
| East—Yeast | Randolph—Ran off |
| Beacon—Lighthouse | Champa—Champion |
| Wabash—Wash | Proctor—Doctor |
These are suggestions only, much depends upon the individual; make your own reminders. The same exchange may be more easily remembered by different visual images for each of us. Use the means that suits you best. If the exchange is represented by a reminder make the double visual impression, as—
