Everybody,with a telephone has a: special tele-.
phone address that .different from any other any.
-:.wh.re. It's tha ' res Code that mak$ our'', number
unique That* why .it's, so' important 'to check the.
.Amit„Code before calling Long Distance. If you use
the 'wrong one you could end . up . talking to some-
on. hundreds or tlOusands of miles away from •the.
'place you intended to call.. If you should get a
wrong number on a Long' Distance icall, dial "0”
• right away and tell ,the Operator what happened.
She'll make sure you aren't charged for the call.
And if you want to check a Long Distance number,
just dial !' then the Area Code --if it's different from
your own --then 555-1212. ,
Here's a little gemof trivia from south of the
border. By the end of 1969, 3,0Q0,000,000,000
(that's three trillion) telephone conversations will
have been completed in the United States. The total
is a tabulation. ° of calls made since '1880 when
Alexander Graham Bell first offered telephone ser-
vice to the .public,
. And speaking of Mr. Bell,' I came • across a state-
ment'he once made which I think some of you might
find interesting. He said: "When one door closes
another opens but we often,. look- so long and so re-
gretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the
one which has opened for us." •
Finally a few Bell Canada facts. Last year we
had 5,451,000.. phones in service in our , operating
territory - Ontario, Quebec, Labrador and parts of
the Northwest Territor!es. In the same year, our
customers originated some 10 billion local calls and
243 million Long Distance calls. Bell. Canada is one
of. the- nation's largesttaxpayers and. the . largest tax-
payer =int'Host of the -communities -in -swhich-we-- .4
operate. More than 97 percent of all . our equip-
ment and material is produced in Canada - by our-
selves and by some 5,000 Other Canadian suppliers.

Rush hour. Every family has one.
When there are dishes to be
washed, kids to be tubbed, Dad
scrubbing up. Then Sis decides
she a has to have a shower. It takes
a lot of hot water -to keep the
traffic moving.
That's why you need the Cascade
electric water heater—the big
producer. It's got the capacity a
busy family needs, and it's
economical, too. Cascade keeps
you in hot water for only pennies
a day. Ask your Hydro about the
quiet, clean, electric Cascade
water heater.
