The Exeter Times-Advocate, 1966-09-15, Page 10U and district news 227.4255. cgrreSpOnsient: Miss Lino Abbett BELL LINES by W. W. Haysom your telephone manager Familiar Helper! Eventually a telephone booth in the middle of an open field? No, eventually 13 public coin telephones! When ploughing enthusiasts converge on Seaforth October 11 to 14, they will find a familiar helper there to serve them. On site of the 1966 International Ploughing Match will be 13 telephone booths eager to serve. Bell Canada engineers and work crews this week are busy installing the 21,800 feet of cable needed to serve the tent-city at the ploughing match. The cable will join the telephones in the exhibit area with the modern Seaforth exchange. The $17,000 installation is being made by Bell Canada at the invitation of the McKillop Telephone Company. That company serves the telephone users in the area where the ploughing match will be held. In addition to telephone service for public and in-tent phones, Bell will have available communication channels for radio and television coverage of the ploughing match. CKNX, radio and television, will use some of these channels. Others will be used by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. Since the tent-city will be served by the Seaforth exchange, calls to Hensall and Clinton will carry no addi- tional charge for long distance calls under the extended area service plan. So when you come to the match next month, Bell will be there ready with modern telephone communications. * * * Any time that you have a question concerning your telephone service I hope that you will either drop by our Business Office when you are in Goderich and see one of our Service Representatives or give her a call from your home or office. She is especially trained to help you with any problem whether it's an application for new telephone serv- ice, a question about your telephone bill, changes in your existing telephone arrangement or any other help you might need. All of us at Bell Canada are interested in your com- plete satisfaction with any transaction involving your tele- phone service. Just let us know when we can be of help. * * On her fourth birthday a little girl came running into the house calling, "Mommy, did I get a phone call?" Mother, a little surprised, said, "Why no, were you ex- pecting one?" "Well no," said Miss Grownup, "But I'm four years old now, so I think it's about time somebody called me up!" Isn't it about time that you called some- body - • in town or out of town? There must be lots of people who would love to hear the sound of your voice. Now. • .1 A hatful of thrills * stars * fun* spectacle!!!
