ONTARIO HOSPITAL SERVICES COMMISSION
2125 YONGE STREET, TORONTO 7, ONTARIO
Honors Manager Herbert Kuntz
Alfred Brunton of Tara, the
company's president, acted as
toastmaster for the notable oe-
casion, The six directors of
the Company and the fire pre*
vention officer, accompanied
by their wives, and the office
staff attended the special event.
Vice-president, Lorne Robin-
son of Kincardine read the
complimentary address, while
director James Inglis of Clif-
ford presented a luggage set to
Mr. Kuntz as a token of ap-
preciation. A presentation of
a pen and pencil set was made
to Alex. Fischer of Mildmay,
who has served the company as
a .director for the past thirty
years.
In replying to the various
toasts, Mr. Kuntz recalled
several highlighting events
which occurred respecting the
company the past quarter cen-
tury. What seemed to be the
greatest accomplishment was
the inauguration and continued
service of the company in pro-
viding fire prevention inspec-
tion of all properties insured
by the company. M. Kuntz
served as president of the
Mutual Fire Underwriters As-
sociation of Ontario in 1951
and 1952 and which represent-
ed for him one of the treasured
insurance experiences.
It was interesting to note
that out of sixty-four similar
companies operating through-
out Ontario today, only eleven
other secretaries have attained
the record of 25 years of con -
tinned service to their respec-
tive companies.

Dial Service and Direct Distance DiaIing
come to WINGHAM
1. DIAL SERVICE WITH 7 -FIGURE NUMBERS
As the conversion to Dial Service takes place throughout the
territory served by Bell, all telephones will get 7 -figure
numbers. The first three figures denote the exchange or lo-
cality, the next four figures are the individual subscriber's
own number.
For Wingham, this means that aII numbers begin with the
three figures "357."
4
Please use all seven figures when you dial your local calls
after Sunday, December 2nd.
All the new numbers are listed in the new phone book
which has been sent to you. Please check the number you
are calling before dialing.to save yourself time and trouble.
If you'd Tike to keep a personal list of telephone numbers
you call most frequently, you might like a copy of Bell's
new Blue Book. Please ask for it at our Business Office.
It's free, contains lots of useful information, including a
special section for listing birthdays and anniversaries!
2. DIRECT DISTANCE DIALING
This is the fastest, easiest, most modern way to make
your Long Distance telephone calls! It means that you
can dial almost any number in any town in Canada or the
U. S. from your home or office . . . establish your own
connection in seconds!
Simply dial "1"—then the three figures of the Area Code
if needed—then the 7 figures of the distant number. When
you have completed your dialing, an Operator will ask:
"Your number, please!" Just give her the number from
which you are calling; your connection will then be com-
pleted automatically!
You'll find complete information on "How to use your
Dial Telephone" and on Direct Distance Dialing in the front
pages of your new telephone directory. These pages also
list many Area Codes for places in Canada and the United
States which you can now reach by DDD.

Forbes, Dunbar
Seek Wardenship
GODERICH--Reeve Walter J.
Forbes of Goderich township and
a Reeve Cliff Dunbar of Grey will
seek the wardenship of Huron
in 1963. 'Their declarations
came toward the end of a series
of short speeches from all trier-
bers at close of the November
session.
"It is desirable, " said Mr.
Dunbar, "that different mem-
bers compete for the highest
office, and I am going to do
that in a spirit of friendly com-
petition, The result will be
just what you make it, and I
will go along with it. It de-
pends, of course, upon being
returned as reeve of Grey; how-
ever, I hope to be back,"
Reeve Forbes, noting that
the airport committee, of
which he is a member, is to be
absorbed by property commit-
tee, dropped a remark about
"the only alternative is toseek
higher office."
Clarence Hanna, popular
reeve of East Wawanosh, an-
nounced his retirement, and
said he "would not be persuad-
ed" to seek re-election.
Reeve Alvin Smith of Turn -
berry noted that no report had
been made regarding amplifier
service in the council cham-
ber. " This is one day we
should have had it, " he said,
referring to the many persons
invited to speak from beside
the warden's chair, some of
whom he said could not be
heard.
Reeve Ralph Jewell of Col-
borne spoke in favor of a loud
speaker system. The matter
was left to the property com-
mittee to determine whether or
not arrangements should be
made for the January session.
Receiving sets for all deskshad
been considered too expensive.
