The Weatherman has certainly come up with a "real
old-fashioned" Canadian summer this year. Plenty of
heat, sunshine and the occasional thunderstorm. Although
vacationers are smiling and it's been perfect weather for
the beach or for camping, in most areas farm lands could
do with a few goad rains for the thirsty ground and
crops. However, for thousands of holidayers the weather
has made trips much more pleasant, Just a stroll through
the business section here in Wingham gives an indica-
tion of the way Canadians are on the move . . . licence
plates from many provinces are parked along with local
vehicles, With Labor Day weekend only a short distance
away I imagine that many of us will again be on the
move to enjoy the last long weekend of the summer
months. You've a special servant to help make your
trips more pleasant . , . either long-planned vacations
or spur-of-the-moment jaunts to a nearby beach or com-
munity, A quick call ahead and you can be sure friends
or relatives will he at home when you arrive. I've found
it a great idea when on a long trip to telephone ahead
for hotel or motel reservations. That way, at the end of
a day of covering many miles by car, I don't have to
begin the search for accommodations. That can be a
frustrating experience and can result in added miles of
driving during the busy tourist season. Happy travelling,
and do drive carefully.
You may have heard or read about our renewed effort
to stamp out obscene and harassing telephone calls. I
hope none of you ever receives such a call but if you do,
here's What to do. DON',T TALK. This type of caller
wants and needs an audience. With no response from you
there's no encouragement to continue or to repeat the
call. HANG UP. Put the receiver hack in place quietly
if the caller refuses to say anything or at the first obscene
word. Nothing is to be gained by slamming the receiver
down. In fact, by replacing it normally the caller gains
no feeling of satisfaction that he has annoyed or fright-
ened you. CALI, US IF abusive or obscene calls persist.
Our Service Representatives can call in people we have
specially trained to help investigate, identify and work
with police in the apprdhension of these callers. We are
as concerned as the unfortunate victim when obscene or
harassing calls are received. It is our business to pro-
vide the beat possible telephone service for our customers
and we are determined to stop ,deliberately irresponsible
and malicious use of the telephone.
On August 2, 1922, Alexander Graham Bell died at the
age of 75. Unlike many of history's great men, he was
fortunate enough to live to see his life's work well estab-
lished and in the hands of talented and dedicated poeple.
From Dr. Bell's work have sprung many of the mir-
acles of communications which today we almost take for
granted,
