How Much Is Quick Service
Worth?
January means cold weather and with it often comes those
familiar little household emergencies ... A furnace goes
dead. A car won't start It's times like these when the
telephone proves its worth. It's so simple: you just make
a quick call and wait for help to arrive. Yes. it's so simple
with a telephone . . . but can you imagine all the head-
aches we'd have without one:
•
Speaking of Cold Weather
may we remind our readers again about the increased
danger of fire during these crisp January days. Houses
become hot and dry and heating systems are taxed to the
utmost. It's a good idea to make sure the heating equip-
ment is working properly. Also, keep matches out of the
way of children. Many a fire was started innocently by a
curious youngster playing with matches. These are per-
haps obvious things but it does pay to remind ourselves
about thein. And finally, be sure to write the telephone
number of your Fire Department in the front of your
telephone directory and make sure everyone, including the
baby-sitter, knows where it is. In the event of fire, phone
the Fire Department immediately — every second counts!
Our Film Library
About 700,000 members of service clubs or other organiza-
tions throughout Ontario and Quebec saw Bell films last
year. Has your club or group availed themselves of this
free service yet? Among our
latest offerings is an out-
standing movie on safe -driv-
ing called, "Anatomy of an
Accident." Another feature is
the 'Hollywood production.
"A Manner of Speaking." a
humorous piece about correct
telephone usage. Among the
57 fascinating films that are
available are eight in our science series which appeared
on TV. They are very popular with schools and other edu-
cational groups. If you would like our catalogue of films
or more information about this service, give us a call.
We'll be happy to discuss it with you.
