at the switchboard
on Christmas Day.
War never takes a
holiday, even at
Christmas. There will
be thousands of vital
calls to put through.
"And our soldiers, sailors
and airmen will be railing home
all over the country. Their calls
should go through as promptly as
.we can complete them. 'Long delays
will be inevitable—unless you de-
ride to avoid your usual Christmas
telephoning.
"Won't you please help us at
Christmas to get this really neces-
sary job done? Can't you mail
your Christmas -Greetings this
year? Or, if you find it absolutely
necessary to make a telephone eall,
won't you please make it a few days
before, or a few days after Christ-
mas? That will be a great help.
"We shall be very grateful for
your co-operation, and you will be
safeguarding Canada's war effort."
