DAY AND NIGHT, seven days a week the telephone is at
your service. Quickly and easily it keeps you in touch
with everything and everybody everywhere. There are
400,000 more telephones and. two million more calls a
day than there were three years ago. And service is
getting better all the time.
In three years, however, costs of important raw ma-
terials for telephone lines and cables have risen sharply.
Copper prices have doubled, zinc and lead prices tripled.
Yet, up to now, despite rising costs on all sides, there has
been no increase in the basic telephone rates established.
22 years ago. Few things give you so much real value at .
such low cost as your telephone.
We've broken all records but there are still orders we
haven't been able to fill. We will keep right on working
and building to make your telephone service a bigger
bargain than ever to continue to provide more and
better service at the lowest possible cost.

ed their home On Monday night for
the weekly meeting of the Fourth Line
of Turnberry Farm Forum. There
were 19 present. The topic "Different
Factors affecting Income peculiar to.
Farming." The most important seemed
to be weather fluctuation of market
prices. The members thought that it
really has advantage over other forms
of taxation in being based on ability
, to pay yet a farmer is required to pay
a high sales tax on his already high
cost machinery which he has to have
in order to farm; also pays sales tax
on all other things, he has to have
to use on the farm. Then too his pro-
perty tax is as a rule much higher
than his city cousin besides having
fewer conveniences. Therefore his ex-
emption should be raised. I f a farmer
only worked 8 hours a day instead of
12-14 hours he would not have in-
come tax to pay. Following the dis-
cussion, progressive euchre was en.
joyed, Mrs. Eldon Kirton won ladies
prize Mr. J. McTavish held highest
score for men. Consolation awards
were made to Mrs. J. McTavish and
Mr. E, Nichol. Refreshments were
served by the hostess.
