Reading from left tonight, Margueritd, Raymonde, Lillian, Yolanda, and llluguette, all work at the Bell Telephone Company of Canada. They share a mutual interest in providing fast, courteous Long Distance Service to thousands of telephone customers. Marguerite, an assistant Chief operator, was the first to join the company, ten years ago. She must have said some nice things to her sisters about the Bell! Ruguette, the youngest, completed the quintette just over a year ago. We like having more than one member of a family sharing in telephone work. It says more forcefully than we ever could that "The Bell is a good place to work." We think, too, that as long as we have employees like the Martin sisters, you'll have the kind of telephone service we want you to have always.
