the 2,500 Bell employees who
enlisted for war service, over 1,700
are back on the job. They have been
given refresher courses, to bring them
up to date or to help them recapture
their old skills.
Ninety per cent of those returning
want to continue in telephone work.
Eventually, we expect thirty-seven per
cent of our entire male staff to be vet
erans of World War II. 0
There’s lots of work waitiiig for them.
Our big job right now is to clean up
delayed orders and we are losing no
time. No less than 75,000 telephones
have been installed since V-E Day.
Telephone instruments will soon be in
better supply.. Central office .apparatus
is the real problem. It takes time to
make and instal this highly complicated
apparatus. That’s why applicants in
areas where switchboards are full will
still have to Wait some time for service.

Hello Homemakers! Let’s give
our family that refreshment and re-.,
laxation so deserved when the day’s
routine is over, ’by serving pleasant,
interesting supper dishes. All of us
■know that fish, eggs, whole-grain
cerbals, and cheese are basic in
gredients of the main lenten sup
per dish, but too few of us take
time to figure out how We can pre
pare them reasonably and attrac
tively. ■
It’s fun to plan a- dish with just a
small note of surprise in either
shape, texture or garnish. A home
maker who .prepares good food can
erase many trials and tribulations/
without actually raising the bud-

Bilious Attacks
Liver Complaint
Biliousness is just another name
for a clogged or sluggish livOr. Tt
is a very common complaint, but can
bO quicldy remedied by. stimulating
the flow of bile. This, softens the
accumulated mass, the poisons are
carried Out Of the System, and the
liver and bowels are relieved and
toned up.
MilbUrn’s Laxa-Liver Pills quicken
arid enliven the sluggish liver, open
ing up every channel, by Causing a
? free 'flow of bile and thus cleansing
’ iho liver of the clogging impurities.
They are small and easy to take.
