Witherden your telephone manager Christmas shopping lists beginning to get you down? Sometimes it is difficult ho know just what would be most appreciated by members of the family and special friends. Something that is exciting to receive but still practical and useful. I've a suggestion that might help you fill the blank spaces, beside a couple of special names an your list. An extension telephone. Your Christmas-morning surprise will be a year-long reminder of your thoughtful- ness. It won't be tucked in a drawer, pretty but useless. Instead, all year long it will save time and steps and its ring will bring a thought of Christmas cheer on the hottest August day. If this idea helps solve a shopping prob- lem, give our Service Representative a call. Simply dial Operator and ask for Business Office. We'll Christmas- wrap and deliver the telephone of your choice, and ar- range to return and connect it later when most con- venient. Just a reminder to anyone planning to make overseas calls during the busy holiday periods of December 24-26 and neeemher Al to January 2. Advance reservations for such calls will be taken starting Monday, November 28, from 9:00 a.m. To reserve a call, just ask your Long Distance Operator to connect you with the Overseas Operator for the country that you wish to call. The Over- seas Operator can then arrange all the details of the call with you. If at all possible, it's a good idea to make the calls before or after two peak calling periods. That way no reservations are necessary and your call should go through quickly and easily. "TELEPHONE. OPERATORS ARE NOT PERMIT- TED TO REPORT AT THIS BUILDING AT ANY HOUR OF DAY OR NIGHT IN BICYCLE COSTUME." Believe it or not, that's a quotation from a telephone company bulletin dated 1895. And that same year, a women's fa- shion magazine said, "Let women's business attire he black, brown. or grey serge. Black is preferred on account of the unwitten law governing the style of dress by many self-supporting women." How the styles have changed in almost three-quarters of a century, and personally, I thirk our telephone girls today look pretty attractive in their bright, gay colors. But Operators' clothes aren't the only things that have changed around the telephone company during the last 71 years. There is no shouting now when talking Long Distance, it's just like speaking to someone across a desk: it's possible to dial cross-continent calls in seconds for a fraction of the cost of 71 years ago. In fact, our Onerators today preside over boards keyed to a communications network unimagined 71 years ago. All those years of research and development have made Your telephone the most modern, trouble-free, reasonably-priced phone in the whole world, ti THE ONTARIO LOAN AND DEBENTURE COMPANY Established 1870 Assets $75,000,000 ° Capital & Reserve $9,000,000 Paid on 3, 4 & 5 year debentures or 61/4% paid on 1 & 2 year debentures Offices.

He cannot say where it hurts or how hungry he is, he can only cry. It could so easily have been death that stilled his cries instead of a doctor at a USC sponsored dispensary. Over 50% of India's diseases can be traced back to mal- nutrition and the Unitarian Service Committee brings food and medical aids to thousands of needy mothers and child- ren. A USC Wonder Dollar will bring 100 cups of milk or 100 enriched peanut butter biscuits, 25 copious meals for slum dwellers in Calcutta or 16 medical visits and medicines to remote villages. This year the Agency with a Heart is appealing for $940,000 in funds and gifts in kind by Christmas Day. USC Headquarters is at 56 Sparks Street, Ottawa 4.
