BELL
LINES

On your next visit to Montreal I hope you will' find
time to visit our new Panorama of Progress in Telecommuni-
cations. Please take this column item as my -personal invita-
tion to visit this "live" museum which is the story of the
telecommunications business from Neanderthal Man to the.
present and on into the future. This fascinating tour through
time opened last month in Bell Canada's head,quarters build-
ing in downtoyvn Montreal. All the many complexities of our
fascinating telephone and telecommunications industry are
made interesting through an Expo -like use of sight and
sound effects. Early Visitors have reported that.you feel as '
though you had walked through 50,000 years of telecommuni-
cations history. A favorite of visitors already is the life-size
mockup of a 19th century Chemist shop, complete with par
tent medicines ,and Victorian decor and a tiny primitive
switchboard. Did you know that many of our first central
offices were in chemist shops? "Central", the young girl who
tended both the shop and the switchboard in the early days
works away at the switchboard while today's visitors listen
and watch. In the variouS sections of the Panorama you will
see the early telephone models as well as a demonstration of
the laser principle and a wrist watch that might one day give
instant communication to anyone anywhere in the world.
When you are in Montreal - maybe you are planning a trip
to Man and His World thiS year - do stop in for a visit to
our Panorama. Pm planning to do so next time that I'm in
that city. It's open Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
and eloquent hostesses will be on hand to show you through
50,000 years of communications history.
"An unswerving regularity ef irregularity" - that was
how Mark Twain described his career. He was a river pilot,
a printer, a soldier, a reporter, a miner, a lecturer, an auth-
or, a humorist, a publisher, an editor, and - unfortunately
- an investor. Twain was always ready to write cheques .to
finance new and unusual inventions-- such as a spiral hat
pin, a self -pasting scrapbook, and nearly a hundred other
products. But his investments never seemed to turn out
right, and finally he decided he had learned his lesson. To
the next stock offered him by a young inventor, he said,
"absolutely and positively not". The inventor? Alexander
Graham Bell.

Not long ago in Chester, England, phones began ring-
ing constantly for no aPparent reason. When they were ans-
wered, there was nothing at the other end but an ominous
silence. Telephone men investigated for months with no luck.
Finally the trouble was traced to the city zoo! A giraffe nam-
ed George was contentedly licking wires stretched across his
enclosure, and short-circuiting all the phones in the district.
The telephone poles had t� be raised four feet to put tempta-
tion out of George's reach. Result: a lot of happy phone sub-
scribers and one very unhappy giraffe.
