ON HOLDING THE LINE
With the first long 'weekend of the summer coming
up I'd like to take a little space in the column to pass along
some statistics on the highway -accident picture in Ontario,
and congratulate drivers for the remarkable showing made
last year in holding the death rate down,,, The Bell's in-
terest in safety is I believe,.well known, and the fact that
'the Company operates the largest fleet of vehicles in Canada
makes road safety all that more important to us.
According to figures released by the Canadian High-
way Safety Council, Ontario highway accidents took 1,424
lives last year -- three lives more than in 1963. Apart from
Newfoundland, which actually lowered the number of
deaths, Ontario's increase of roughly one-fifth of one per
cent- is almost incredible especially when compared to
neighbouring Quebec and Manitoba, where deaths tragically
increased 20 and 11 per cent, respectively.
I sincerely hope that as we take to the road this
suminer we Will not only Continue to hold down the death
rate, but actually begin to pare it away as in Newfound-
land.,. Our highways Will become safer and safer for all
of us if each one -- driver, passenger, pedestrain and cyclist
alike -- will accept a continuing responsibility to see that
they do so. Summed up very simply, this means that Road
Safety is everyone's responsibility, and all the time..Right?

OUTDOORS AT HOME
I Wonder if Canadians Would be so appreciative of
the spring and summer if Canada had a waren climate all
year round? Well, no matter, the fact is that We don't
have a warm climate all year round, and so we take
as much advantage of it lat !possible while it's here. This
doesn't only mean •trips and exounsions and picnics and the
like, .but "outside living" on the porch, patio, or under the
family trees, And this can sometimes present a problem
because "inside living" still has to go on as well. For
eiaaanple, the telephone is probably considered a part of
"inside living" by most people -- perhaps because it's more
or less "tried down" by a wire. Yet there are two solutions
which let people enjey es notch ''outside living" as possible
While still keeping in easy .touch With friends. One is the
Bell. Milne, Which can be sat to ring loud enough to be
heard outdoors (it also has a regular ring, plus a soft
musical tone 'that's perfect when a family member is rest-
ing), The other is a portable extension With 'a weather-
proof jack. What would you do with an ;outdoor extension
d
,
turarig the winter mbiuths 7 -- Weil, you take it back in With
1 ou and Use at as a regular extensaan.i If you're interested,
We'd be glad to ,tell you more about it just give us a
bail at ottr business office.

"v01441.'441)* 8 there is a :grelat
deal of 7ea1c?ww7 of today's teen-
agers,
'Z"hs is ,,,evened by .the adults'
expressed wish that lfids iT?
theft, teens .could act like them;
by their 'enaction 'to any hint of
change Til the rules for their
children, and especially by -their
endless pralting about haw soft
a time the youngsters have now,
and h'ow hard it was in their
say,
To ,hear, most adults tall,
you'd thin .they'd neves had
any fun at .all, when they were
kids, or ever done. anything
foolish, There's a steady`streaix
of poppycock about how far
they walked to school through
the ,snow; how 'Scanty were
their wardrobes; how early they
had to be in at fright; hQw hard
their" parents worked them; how
good 'their marks: were in school..
There's a modicum of truth in
all of this', of course, because
fife was a lot more simple and
frugal a quarter-century ago.
But with the passing of time
the morsal of truth becomes a
bit of malarkey. Personally, I
think We bad a lot less to cope
wit'b, socially,and psychological-
ly, if not physically, than to-
day's teenagers.
But this . attitude received a
jolt this week, when my son an-
nounced that he had nailed down
a summer job. It was difficult
to keep my upper lip both stiff
and buttoned, when I compared
his first real job with inline.
There are parallels. Both of
us got the job at age 17, and
both jabs were on the upper
Great Lake boats. There the
parallel ends, •
For instance. 1 hitch -hiked
480 miles, with $250 cash, to
meet my boat He will be driiven
three miles, by his farther, to
catch his.
And the hours aren't quite
the sarne I worked the grave-
yard shift, midnight to. noon,
seven days a week, He'll work
a couple of hours morning and
afternoon, about three hours in
the evening, and have a day
and and a half off each week
That's all rigt, I don't bear
a grudge. Nobody should' have
to work Like a dog. But there's
a slight difference in the pay.
I pulled down $30 a month,
even on the 31 -day months. A
dollar a day and keep. My son
will be knocking off just over
nine times as much.
However, that OK. Wages
have gone up a lot. Wray should
he work for peanuts? I must
