Parente and school trustees will be given free access to schools under the new Con; solidated Education Act which was given first reading in the Legislature last week. Under the new Act, parents and school trustees are designated as school visitors and will be able to visit a school at any time. The designation was previously -limited to clergyman and mem- bers of the Legislature, A parent will be able to visit a school at which their child is enrolled. School trustees may freely visit any school within the board he represents. In presenting the new Act, Education Minister Thomas Wells said that the con- solidation is more a refinement of the five acts; The Ministry of Education Act, The Schools Administration Act, The Public Schools Act, the Separate Schools Act and the Secondary School and Boards of Education Act rather than an introduction of major policy changes.

CALLING HOME FOR CHRISTMAS? While our business office will be closed over the holidays (see below) many of our Operators will be at work to help you get in touch with family or friends. They've asked me to pass on a couple of tips that will make it easier for you to get your call through. First, remember that Christmas Day and New Year's Day seem to be everybody's favourite time to call. Circuits are extremely busy. If you place your call a day before or after, you'll have much less difficulty. Secondly, if you don't know the telephone number of the place you want to call, why not get it now. It's free. For overseas numbers, dial "0" and ask for the overseas operator. She'll take the details and call you back. - On calls within the continent, you can probably dial Directory Assistance your- self. Just dial the access code "1", the area code for the place you're calling (if different than your own) then 555-1212. You'll have it in no time. BUSINESS OFFICE HOURS During the holiday period, the business office will be closed on December 24th, 25th and 26th. We'll re-open on the 27th and 28th. The following week we'll close only on January 1st. May we take this opportunity to extend warmest greetings to all of you from all of us here at Bell Canada.
