The cover is designed with Ontario's official flower, the trillium and eight other wild flowers found in the province. Some 57,088 directories will -be distributed this year, an increase of almost 6,000 from last year's total., Bell is adhering to its policy Instituted a few years ago of delivering only one directory per .household. - "In 1977 we'll save about 11,200 books with this policy", Mr. Griffiths said. "It cuts down on costs, helps conserve 'natural resources such as pulpwood and reduces paper pollution when it comes to discarding old direc- tories." When deliveries are completed anyone who might have been missed can get a directory by phoning his local Bell Canada business office after Oct. 27. Mr. Griffiths said subscribers should -consult the wealth of information in the introductory pages. These include emergency numbers for police, fire depart- ment and ambulance, long distance area codes, discount times for long distance and Bell Canada numbers for repair, directory assistance and business - office.
