John Chippa, Manager of the Listowel Canada Manpower Centre announced the re-appdint- ment of Bob Miller as the co-ordinator of the summer student programme for 1977. Last summer, Mr. Miller was quite successful in promoting summer employment in the area, and it is hoped that the summer of 1977 will be even more successful. During the next few weeks, Mr. Miller will be visiting area Secondary Schools to inform students of the various government summer employment programmes, and to provide information on summer job hunting techniques. Employers throughout the area are being contacted by letter, phone, and in person in an attempt to uncover as many employment opportunities as possible for students this ,summer. Although few employers have yet committed themselves to student summer employment, Mr. Miller is quite optimistic. He feels that there will be jobs available and students should begin actively seeking work at once. Students may register with with "Love". 1 John 4: 7-21 was read by Mrs..

They are the easiest- to-read entries in the directory. Mr. Scott said the telephone ads were the only thing he had received a number of complaints about. "However, if enough people invest in the luxury phones, it can help keep the basic monthly rate down for other users," 'he explained. No complaints about the Owen Sound directory had been received at his Stratford office, Mr. Scott said. "I was expecting to get a few, he said, "if for no other reason than that a change was, in fact, made." The smaller type face was tried out in Ottawa and Toronto, Mr Scott said.

This is the first year that Bell Canada has used photo composition in printing its directories on a large scale, Mr. Scott explained. "The change was for strictly financial reasons," Mr. Scott said. "I haven't seen the fi gures for Owen Sound yet, but for the Stratford directory the saving was about 17 per cent." Photo composition represents one of the most recent trends in commercial printing. It is generally faster than older methods, and produces a clearer typeface. However, it is cheaper only for large orders, which Bell would certainly qualify for..
