'Telephone Etiquette' by U.S. Department of Indian Affairs (1952)


Instructional film targeted at Native American youth. Weird and somewhat condescending instructional film about how to use the phone. Why are the kids here shown as servants to the white man? Also, the narrator says (twice!) that there are three words you must remember when using the phone. "Please", "Thank You" and "I'm Sorry". That's five words, not three. Lastly, the entire short is flat out bizarre.
