The Wingham Advance-Times, 1945-03-29, Page 6Night Coughing oboe SO nom' up?* WE regret that thousands of applicants have had to "line up" for telephone service. Telephone equipment has Been critically short because this is a "communications" war. And of course the armed forces, the government and war industries still move automatically to the head of the line; their needs come first. Only as material becomes available for less urgent needs can we take care of our waiting list, and on a first-comairstserved basis. We realize it's no fun having to "stand in line" this way. Applicants have been surprisingly cheerful about it—a fact we deeply appreciate. We just want them to know that we will be every bit as glad as they when we can once again meet every request for telephone service—fully and promptly, • . • t .LL .,__.__ Red brass EASTER DINNER MENU Tomato Juice.

This was the last regular meeting of the season and the discus sion period was spent in filling in the questionaire. This forum enjoyed the discussions on marketing during Feb- ruary the best, as the discussions were good and the subject seemed import- ant to the group.

Answer:—Yes, in fact there need not be any legal adoption, just confirma- tion that the parent or other relative or person is actually, maintaining the child. Question:—Do children in institu- tions receive fainily allowances? Answer:—Na. The purpose of the- Act is to help parents provide for the health and welfare of their children, not to relieve institutions of their re- spon s i b ties.
