OUTDATED...
": = but who knows it!
Like an old car, i'our insurance program can become out-
dated, too. But while an old car shotes its obsolescence, it
takes study, and review to uncover out -dated insurance.
Does your program incorporate the many recent insurance
improvements which awake possible superior, more economi-
cal protection? If not, s'pu'd do watt: see us for ai campletc
protection review.

who are responsible for these pro-
jects.

noon festival will be held April 18,

tor of music for London schools, as

SPRANG FEVER
Each, year at this time most of us fall victim to at strange nnt1-
ady known a5 spring fever, The symptoms are easy to detect.
Members of the fair sex usually develop a keen interest in.
colourful new clothing anis can generally be seen sporting love-
ly new creations called Easter bonelets, The .menfolk, on the
other hand, just sit around and dream of distant trout streams.
Another strange effect of this disease might be termed: "A re-
awakening of the nest -building urge"—an. intense desire to im-
prove and beautify the hone. And that's exactly what a lot of
folks in Wingh.am are concerned wit'it these days. How 410 we
know? Well, we've noticed a greater interest in our colored, ex-
tension phones. As a matter of fact, there's a deckled increase
in the number of orders we've received in recent weeks. I guess
that's proof enough. So, if you're suffering frotn spring fever,
just relax and enjoy it. Remember, you're in. good company.
OUR, UNDERCOVER MEN
Those tents you occasionally see on telephone lines may have
set; you wondering what sort of .mysterious operation was going
on inside. Actually, it's no mystery. The tents are simply pro-
teicLion .against rain, wind, or hot sun for phone men engaged
in splicing cables together. It's one "undercover jab" that helps
assure the dependability of telephone service, since tents like
this allow us to make cable repairs in just about any kind of
weather,
