Now that April is here, complete with thoughts of income tax, rainy weekends and, in most communities, the return of Daylight Saving Time, most property owners are anxious to begin work out of doors. During the long winter months when snow covered yards and patios many have been busy making plans to plant shrubs or trees, put up a new fence or make other improvements. However, before you get your hands on the shovel or any other digging tool, please, give us a call to find out if there are any buried cables on your real estate. All it takes is one hefty thrust of a shovel or a well-sunk fence post to damage a buried cable. This damage could disrupt regular telephone service, long distance, data-send- ing facilities or even emergency communications that might be transmitted by telephone wire. This cable-locating service is provided free by Bell Canada. Just give us a call at 114. We will advise you quickly if cable is under your property. And, while we are on the subject of cable protection, something else comes to mind. The burning of brush and last year's dead grass is another popular April pursuit in centres where fire regulations permit. Before striking the match, look up. There is nothing like a roaring fire beneath telephone wires to put part of the system out of commission. And, the pungent smell of an outdoor fire is not enhanced by adding burning cable! Like good health, the telephone is never fully appreciated until we are with- out it. Let's do our best to look after both. 1."; When you lift the receiver on your telephone you may notice that your telephone set has been made in Canada by Northern Electric. If you have ever stopped to watch the huge cable laying machinery placing cable underground you will likely have noticed that the tremendous reel that unwinds that cable is marked in large letters, "Northern Electric", In communities where a new telephone switching centre is being constructed by Bell Canada (and there have been many in Ontario the past few years), it is Northern Electric equipment that goes into it, and Northern Electric technicians who install and test the equipment to make sure it operates to exacting standards, Northern Electric has developed Canadian sources for more than 95 per cent of all material it purchases. More than 5,000 other Canadian firms are engaged in supplying Bell Canada's various needs through Northern Electric. This close relationship between Bell Canada and Northern EleCtric is not accidental, North, ern Electric is Bell's wholly-owned research, manufacturing and purchasing subsidiary. The resulting unity of purpose and shared objectives contribute to the high quality and reasonable cost of service enjoyed by Bell Canada custom- ers, The partnership provides the necessary degree of in' tegration in research, supply and service operation that solves particularly Canadian problems — distance, climate and sparsity of population to assure customers a standard of service that is Second to none in the world.
