Haysom your telephone manager DEATH BY SUFFOCATION According to a U.S. government test conducted on 201 youngsters aged 3 to 51 z, abandoned refrigerators, freezers and ice boxes remain death traps .even when equipped with safety devices. Induced into a refrigerator -like playhouse and told to come out as soon as the door was closed, two out of every five children MADE NO ATTEMPT TO ESCAPE, even though the door was provided with a release mechan- ism. Observed through an invisible viewer for up to ten minutes, some cooed and played happily; some lay down to go to sleep; some pounded on the door without attempting to push it open; others simply cried. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, alert your little people to this danger and help make sure that all abandoned or temporarily idle refrigera- tors, etc., have had their doors removed, or else are so tightly bound that no child could ever get into them. This is especially true now that older and wiser brothers and sisters are back at school and tinier types must make most of their own fun. NEVER A TOY The tragedy of a child locked in an abandoned freezer makes me wish a telephone had been in there with him. Impractical? unfortunately, yes. But take another emer- gency where a youngster does have access to a phone. Would he be able to use it to save his life.. or would it be some sort of toy to ,him? That, of course. depends on what he has learned at home about the telephone. If he's allowed to play with it. he might not take it seriously enough to use in this emergency, or in any other emergency somewhere, sometime, when a telephone could make all the difference. But if his parents have explained how serious..an instrument it is, and how it can be used if he or his friends are ever in danger. then he WILL hear the reassuring voice of the operator if he ever needs help quickly. x NUMBER GAME Since we seem to be on children this column, here's a puzzle they probably don't know; though you may remember it: Take the figures of your telephone number -and double them. Add five; multiply by 50; then add your age. Now add the number of days in a year and then subtract 615. If all went well, your total should consist of the figures in your telephone number and your age, reading from left to right. Any budding mathematicians in your family?

White bean harvesting is taking place, but ripening slow due to cool damp weather. Yields will not be as high as earlier expected. Some silo filling is going on. Wheat acreage may be down because of lack of heavy rains and late bean harvesting. Grain corn is maturing very slowly; some farmers may have to make silage of their intended grain crop unless weather conditions are ideal during the remainder j of the month.

RUSSELL T. BOLTON Returning Officer. S nem', Coach Satellite eedsAround Monfreal General Coach Works has launched a satellite! It doesn't circle the earth, but it does speed around Montreal, Quebec. It's the "satellite studio" of Montreal's radio station, CKGM —another of the remarkable us- es to which the mobile coaches of General Coach Works of Can- ada Ltd., at Hensall, have been put by imaginative owners. "We needed to get our broad- cast facilities to the public," - says CKGM's General Manager, Don Wall. And so the station has turned to Jack Minnault, Ltd., Montreal dealer for Gen- eral Coach Works. There, CKGM met with "tremendous success" in getting just what was wanted. The coach was outfitted with Hensall Lodge Nominates Slate The regular meeting of Am- ber Rebekah Lodge was held Wednesday evening in the lodge rooms with Noble Grand Mrs. Hugh McEwen presiding. Nominations for the coming season were: Noble Grand, Mrs. Clarence Volland; Vice -Grand, Mrs. John F. Ingram; recording secretary, Mrs. Blighton Ferg; financial secretary. Mrs. Ernie Chipchase; treasurer. Mrs. Ed. Corbett. Installation will take place on October 16, when the new District Deputy President and her installing team from Gode- rich will officiate. Friends Gather As Hibbert Couple Wed 25 Years Mr. and Mrs. John A. Murphy, well-known Hibbert Township residents on Highway 8, recent- ly marked their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary. They were married August 22, 1938, in St. Columban Roman Catholic Church by the late Rev. J. Dantzer. Mrs. Murphy is the.. former Lucy Burke. daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. William Burke. and Mr. Murphy is the son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Frank Murphy. Following their wedding they have since farm- ed on the Murphy homestead. They have two sons. Joseph, with the D.H.O.. Preston, and William. at home. Highlighting the morning's activities was a Mass of Thanks- giving in St. Columban Church. with Rev. Donald Smith. SFM, Toronto.' as celebrant. Follow- ing the mass, a dinner was serv- ed at their home. the guests being members of their iminedi• ate families. Following the din. ner Mr. and Mrs. Murphy were presented with many gifts. among them being two end tables, a chair and trilight lamp from their family. Joe and Bill. On Friday evening, friends and neighbors gathered at St. Columban church hall to honor the celebrants at a reception. The early part of the evening was spent playing progressive euchre. Following the euchre, Lou Rowland, chairman for the evening. called Mr. and Mrs. Murphy= to the platform. where he read an address. Mr. and Mrs. Murphy received a set of silverware. two table lamps. a smoker and a surprise package. Both Mr. and Mrs. Murphy thanked their many friends and neighbors for the lovely gifts and best wishes in future years. Dancing rounded out the social evening. Following is the address: Dear Lucy and Jack: "Let's go back some twenty- five years or more. when young Jack Murphy made butter by the score; "but the farm needs me." said Jack. so to Hibbert Township he came back. His thoughts started to wander anew to a pretty teacher with eyes of blue; •"I must build a fine house." said Jack, "then I'll ask Lucy to come back." Now Lucy was a fine teacher, they say. but Jack's proposition led her astray; "so to heck with London and teaching," says she. "with Jack on the farm, hap- pier I'll be." The wedding day was quick- ly set for August 22nd, you can bet; all went well, but on the honeymoon, before reaching Goderich, trouble loomed. For Jack it seems forgot to check his gas supply, and so by heck a policeman to their rescue came—and such embarrassment to this couple in name. To make their happiness complete, not just one baby, so neat, but twin boys, named Joe and' Bill, which gave this couple quite a thrill. Lucy is treasurer of the C. W. L.. a job she does very well; soon we'll see Jack at the local fair, he'll riaca horses, now so rare. Your friendly nature and ready smile, have given the community something worth- while: whenever we need a helping hand, We know the Mur- phys we can Iand. Please ac- cept these gifts, though small, they carry best wishes from us all. May the next twenty-five years Jae as happy as the last, by gee.—Sigded on behalf of your relatives, friends and neighbors. all the equipment necessary for a full spectrum of broadcast activities, including a special generator, loudspeakers, and Perma-Pane windows.

Bingo was played and a pot -luck lunch served, few weeks, CKGM's "satellite" is already getting the station "just fantastic exposure," as Mr. Wall describes it. County fairs, car dealerships, shopping centers, real estate develop- ments, any and all civic cele- brations — you name it and CKGM's "satellite" has been there. Best of all the locations for exposure of the mobile studio to the public are the bridges which link the island city to the mainland. There, on holidays, hundreds of thousands of vaca- tioners pass the "satellite" on foot, astride bicycles, or in cars. Mr. Wall reports that his an- nouncers are getting arm cramps from just returning the waves from one out of every two passersby. Talk about get- ting to the people!
