HYDRO and the Weather The man on the pole is typical of the many Hydro employees who stand ready, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to respond to emergency calls for service. If tropble is of a minor nature ser• vice is restored promptly. Sometimes however, due to severe storms, sleet or hurricanes, trouble reaches major proportions. When this happens, crews work hard and fast, to repair wires, replace poles and burnt out distributing equipment. This work is carried out at any hour of the day or night until service is restored, for these men appreciate that wherever wires run people depend upon electricity for most of the conveniences and comforts of modern living. The great scope and flexibility of OntarioF l tiro d province -wide operation, its resources of manpower and equipment, make it possible to , cope with emergencies when thej occur.
