There's a place for you on this team. Take your choice! Do you
like to organize and direct .. . would you like to learn a useful
trade . . . or, perhaps you like outdoor activities with
action aplenty?
There's opportunity in the Canadian Army Active Force—
including advancement to commissioned rank—if you have
what it takes.
The Canadian Army Active Force offers more opportunities
now than ever before, and to complete the picture you are
assured of lifetime pension when your service is completed.
Step right in !—Ask the nearest Recruiting Depot or Armoury
for enlistment particulars. Bring with you certificates of age
and education. Veterans should write direct to the nearest
depot listed below:—
Our farm program calls for still snore
telephones, for fewer parties on each line,
and for more new switchboards.
Dial Telephones
New dial equipment is being installed in
tremendous quantities.
Today•we have more dial telephones
than the total of all our telephones in 1942.
Now 70 out of every 100 telephones
are dial. More 'exchanges will, be con.
verted to dial operation.
• Financing the Program
Much of the new money necessary to
extend the telephone system must be
obtained from - thousands of people who
wish to invest their savings.
The principal means of securing this new
capital will be by issuing additional shares
of our stock from time to time with the
approval of the Board of Transport Corn.
Anissioriers
It was for this purpose that theauthority
of Parliament was obtained.
Best Service—lowest Cosi
The skill and enthusiasm of telephone
workers will be devoted to turning the
materials obtained with the new capital
into service of the highest standard.
The public can be assured that The
Bell Telephone Company of Canada will
continue to provide the best telephone
service at the lowest possible cost.
Vast Construction
Program Continues
Parliament has given the Bell Telephone
Company permission to increase its
authorized capital by $350,000,000.
The Company can now continue to go
to investors for the money necessary
to further the greatest expansion and
improvement program in its history.
This construction program is neces-
sary if the Company is to carry out its
obligation and satisfy the public's con-
tinuing demand for more telephones and
more telephone service.
4
Our objective is to extend and improve
the service so that ultimately we can
give every applicant the kind and
quality of service he wants, when
and as he, wants it.

A Period of Unequalled Growth
In the 34 months since V-J Day we have
added 350,000. telephones—many more
than in the preceding ten years. We now
serve 1,360,000 telephones--22 for every
100 persons throughout Ontario and
Quebec. We have never before provided
so much new service in so short a time.
This unprecedented pace has been
maintained with the aid of new capital
from Canadian investors. More will be
required.
The Continuing Demand for Service
Vet, despite this rapid growth, we still
have 96,000 unfilled orders for tele-
phones and another 69,000 requests to
change party lines to individual service.
Thousands of new orders are coming in
every month.
Long Distance calls are three times
pre-war levels.
Many new buildings, switchboards,
lines and other equipment must be
provided as rapidly as possible. The
next decade may well see more telephone
construction than during the preceding
68 years of our history.
Rural Telephone Service
Rural telephone service has expanded,
and will continue to do so. In the terri.
tory We serve, 55 of every 100 rural
homes and businesses have telephones.
In 1945 Only 39% had service.
