manager
Each year about this time I ask for your help. Help in
keeping telephone service uninterrupted to you and your neigh-
bourhood. ;You see, to protect our telephone cable from most
hazards, we bury much of it underground. Some of it could be
buried on your real estate. With the spring months many of
us start home improvement projects — planting trees or
shrubs; erecting fences or patiosz Before you swing into action
with any such plans, could I ask you to give us a call at Bell
Canada? We'll be happy to check, free of charge, to see if any
cable is located on your property. Just give us a call at 114 and
well get the information to you as quickly as possible. All it
takes is a hefty thrust of a shovel or a • well-sunk fence post
to damage buried cable, if by chance, you should chose a spot
above that cable, This damage could disrupt regular telephone
service, long distance, data-sending facilities or even emergency
communications that might be transmitted by telephone wire.
Just to show you what can happen to our carefully buried
cable I'm including a photograph this month.

Although it looks like a piece ot modern sculpture, there was
nothing very artistic about the mangled and torn wires left
inside when a corn-binder sliced into it. A shovel or fence post
might not complete as Tretty a job — but, it would be just as
effective in • disrupting communications services.

Often in chatting to different subscribers in this area I
am asked questions about telephone companies other than Bell
Canada. Many people seem unaware that there are many in-
dependent telephone companies which serve thousands of sub-
scribers within Ontario and Quebec. In fact, at the end of 1967
there were a total of 241 telephone companies or telephone
systems other than Bell Canada serving 425,484 telephones in
the two provinces. Largest of these is Quebec Telephone which
operates 138 exchanges and serves 125,625 telephones. Many of
the companies arc quite small. Indeed, we refer to them as
systems, for they have their own lines and telephones but they
terminate on the switchboards of other companies, including
ours. Usually these small companies or systems serve fishing
camps, game clubs, mining enterprises or lumbering camps. In
Ontario there are 113 telephone companies other than Bell
Canada; in Quebec, 128 such companieS. Included in the figures
is one company in Labrador, NeVirfoundland which serves 2,400
telephones. In our inthiOdiate area around Clinton there are 4
independent telephone companieS. As with Bell Canada, growth
of the number of telephones served by the independent com•
panics has risen greatly over the years. In 1945 there were
924 independent companies serving 189,343 telephones in On-
tario and Quebec. • At the end of last year there were 241
independent companies serving 425,484 telephones. We Work
Closely With the comPanies which provide service within the
two provinces in which we also operate, Through our ossociation
we all work to provide the best in communicati ills S'1'vir"'S
to our subscribers.
