We aim to please and “please” it shall be no more. For it appears that this please­ habit proves only confusing to the operators. Just this week in placing an out-of-town call, we gave the number, as instructed, adding the usual “please”. Presently, the operator called back with a message that the line was busy and she’d try again. And she did, twice again in the space of two hours before the Buckner-Pym Wed In Toronto Loretta Mae, younger daugh­ ter of Mr. and Mrs. Ewart Pym, was married on Saturday, Feb­ ruary 13, to Douglas Wayne Buckner, son of Mr. and Mrs. Alexander M, Buckner, Windsor.

Mr. and Mrs. Buckner will make their home in Toronto where both are attending Ryer­ son Institute of Technology, class of ’54. Mrs, Buckner is a student of retail merchandising and Mr. Buckner of interior designing.

Frugally checking back to clear up the mix-up, we explain­ ed that we were calling X, “Oh but you gave me X3”, she re­ torted. Right away we realized the error. Since they couldn’t pos­ sibly have such a number as X please, she had obviously called the closest number to it, X3. And she did put another call through to X (sans please) immediately. It does seem like throwing a good friend to the times though. We sort of hate to see OJd Please pass from our telephone vocabu­ lary—always felt it made things a little more friendly.
