Alaska’s giant Kodiac bear
plays rough. But the people who
run the Bronx Zoo have found
the perfect toy for him. It’s an
aluminum beer barrel, which in •
his playful moments he can
bang, bounce and generally
maltreat without serious dam
age. Having seen barrels (filled)
being tossed around trucks, we
can understand why breweries
have turned to these rugged,
attractive containers. Another
reason, of course, is that alu

their purity and flavour indef

When one of the family calls you to the
phone and whispers, “I think it’s busi
ness,” it reminds you how important
calls of that kind are, even at home.
You don’t have to upset your eve
ning’s plans, because your telephone gets
things done quickly, nearby or far away.
Whether it’s a matter of sales, or serv
ice, whether it’s early evening or late at
night, you can depend on your telephone.
Just give it a thought next time one of
the family says, “It’s for you, Dad!”
