fl }1IS YOUNG LADY is coming to work.
She is an operator. She is• always on"the
job whether it is stormy or not. And at what-
ever hour you call her she is pleasant' and
efficient..
The people in the telephonc,service .make cour-
tesy a habit. It is part. of the efficiency with
which they serve.
There are 15,000 men and women engaged in
the telephone system of'Ontario and Quebec.
They handle over four million Calls every day
and, in spite of the constant cry for speed,
there is scarcely a case of conscious discour-
tesy
iscour tesy or neglect.
riPHA COMPANY -IS PROUD of these
IL 15,000 men and Wooten and has endeavor-
ed to tnalce their wqrk as agreeable, healthful
and stable as possible. Several hundred present
employees have been with the system for more
than twenty-five years.
This stability of staff maintains high standards
of operation and is encouraged by the, Em-
ployees' Pension and Benefit Fund, established
in 1917, to protect employees in illness or acci-
dent, and to provide for their. future and for
their dependents.
There is also a plan of Employees' Life Insur-
ance, by which out of salary, employees may
carry without undue burden insurance to care
for their dependents. This plan has been ar-
ranged in co-operation with Canadian: insur-
ance companies at regular rates,
IN ADDITION to, this factor of stability an
active interest in the telephone system is
encouraged by the plan of employees' purchase
of shares and by the plan of employee repro-
sentation- .
Some years ago telephone employees were
given opportunity to become 'shareholders
the company and 10,390 of them have subscribed'
for shares on instalment payments. Eor some
years ,also, spokesmen selected by the staff
have met with representatives of the'manage-
nient to discuss such 'natters as wages, hours,
tools and 'working conditions. This has not
only stimulated interest but promoted effici-
Cncy.
mESE THINGS are the basis of the alert -
ess and enterprisewhich have become a
tradition of telephone work.
It is demonstrated among the 4,900 men in the
plant department, Over 3,500 of them have •
qualified for St. John's Ambulance Corps first
aid. certificates and because ..of their outdoor
duties they are frequently nearby when acci
dents' occur. There have been, many instances
in which their voluntary 'reslnnsetlhas saved
life slid relieved suffering.
The same spirit has become familiar in the
enterprise and courage with which operators
rise to an emergency.
HETHER IT BE, the nisht'operator on
the job at rnidd'yight or the linernanfight-
ing a winter storm, the Men and .
women of the,teleplione service Lr13^
give their best in Contributing 4
to Canadian progress ansi ''well
deserve whatever•' benefits the
conipany,is able to oiler.

"Dear Warden: -
About a year ago.you had the yery
great honor of being selected as: War-
den, of this banner County of ,Huron.
You have now arrived at a time when
your duties as such are over, and we
find ourselves obliged to disband as
a County. Council. -
During your term as,..Krarderi, we.
have found you ever courtecsss, oblig-
ing,hstraight forward and business-
like' in all the duties appertaining to,
that exalted office; and it is with pro-
found sorrow that so efficient a mun-
icipal head is going to be lost to the
colunty, but we sincerely trustyour
ability will be appreciated by the
municipality in which you choose to
reside, and that at some time you
may be returned as their representa-
tive. We are, however, satisfied that,
so far as you arc concerned, it has
been a year's' work well done. The
enthusiasm with which you have ap-
proached all the duties in connection
with your office as Warden has prov-
ed to us beyond the shadow of a
doubt, thdt in your veins courses the
blood of a true patr.-iojt, and that you
have a real passion for the welfare
of the County and the Pi ovine in
which y•ou live.
The manner,in which you have con-
ducted the meetings of the County
Council has been of the very highest
nattire, being fair to( all, showing
partiality to none. We • appreciate
the study you have made and the
time you. have spent in connection
with problems with which the county
has been confronted.
We extend to you and your noble
wife our best wishes fojr a long, use-
ful and happy life, and we beg you
to accept this sane as a small token
of the esteem in which you are held
by ydur fellow members of the 1928
council and that in future it will re-
call many pleasant experiences dur-
ing the year of your Wardenship.
The chairman then called on all
the members present for remarl.s,.
and all the cohncillors spoke apprec-
iatively Of Mr. Hayes' work as
Wardell during the year.
