               The World Expands Local Calling Service
                                   
                      In Eastern Massachussetts


Software Tool & Die is pleased to announce the availability of new
V.32bis (14.4kbps) modem dial-up numbers throughout Eastern
Massachussetts. There are no extra charges (beyond regular World
rates) for the use of these numbers.

We have listed the communities below which are non-toll calls to these
numbers but advise you to check with your telephone business office
regarding your own service.

In addition, there are many surrounding communities for whom calls to
these numbers will be less expensive than dialing into Brookline
