SCHOOL'S OUT!
Up to this point in the year children in Wingham have been
spending a great deal of their time in school, but with summer
rolling around again they will be once more on their own about
town. This means that drivers should be doubly careful when
driving during the summer months. You can always expect the
unexpected When exuberant kids let out a hoop and a holler
at the end of another school year. They have a way of dashing
Out from behind parked cars or racing across intersections
without warning. By keeping a sharp lookout and a slow speed,
we can make sure that they will ALL return to school next fall.

"IM SORRY — IT'S A SECRET"
This is the response given by an employee who isquestioned
regarding the conversation of a telephone user who may be over-
heard speaking over our telephone lines, We are legally obligated
to maintain the privacy of telephone service. However, on the
production of a search warrant the police have the right of
access to Company property and records. Of course, the Bell,
cannot be a party to wire tapping as it would violate our ob-
ligation to maintain the privacy of the telephone conversations.
I just thought I might mention these few facts about our tele-
phone service for your general information since I have been
asked on occasion about this matter. Of course, there still is
the rural multi-party line which gives each customer easy access
to the conversation of others you say? True, but with increased
spread of technology and availability of facilities, the days of
the multiple "click" when six or more receivers hang up after a
"good" conversation has ended may soon come to an end.

TRULY CANADIAN
A great many people do not have a clear idea of the scope of
The Bell Telephone Company- of Canada, and I would like to
take a few lines and perhaps shed some light on the subject.
Contrary to popular conceptions, the Bell does not extend from
coast to coast, as our name night imply, but serves Ontario,
Quebec and a large section of the Northwest Territories and.
Labrador. As we do serve a very large segment of the Canadian
geography, we must have a rather large employee body which
now numbers more than 35,000 people Ninety-three percent of
our total stock is owned by over 150.000 Canadians residing in
Canada. In 1962 the Canadian economy was stimulated through
the Company spending over $600,000,000 in Canada in the form
of wages, taxes, construction, operating costs and many other
categories too numerous to mention in order to bring to our
more than 2,600,000 customers, the best possible telephone ser-
vice at the lowest possible cost.
