Do not misuse public telephones. If you damage a public telephone you may regret it later when you need to make an urgent call. For example, last Wednesday, Raja was very happy when he managed to get a "free" telephone call. Later his mother was ill and he could not phone for an ambulance because he had damaged the telephone.
