Night Rates on Long Distance
Calls to Begin at 6 o’clock
The announcement that from
March 1, night rates on long dis
tance calls will begin at 6 p.m. in
stead of 7 as heretofore, will be of
special Interest to boys and girls
telephoning home from camps and
barracks all over the country. The
change will be effective also on all
lines of the Trans-Canada System.
Two main results are expected
from this change-—the added con
venience of longer night rate period,
and lessened congestion on war
busy lines which, because of mater
ial shortages, cannot be extended.
Further, of course, there will he
an obvious saving to users through
the one-hour's lengthening of the
night rate period.
