The Big Difference between
a man who displays this
symbol and an insurance
company salesman might
mean hundreds, perhaps
thousands, of dollars in your
pocket.
As .in independent insurance
agent, he represents not one
but several insurance com-
panies. He is thus free to choose
rhe best c.tr, home, or business
insurance for you, to make sure
you are paid both promptly and
fairly when you have a loss. On
the other hand, the services of
an insurance company salesman
usually end when he has sold
you the policy which his par-
ticular company offers.
As independent insurance
agents, we are ready to give
you continuing, personal atten-
tion—The Big Difference in
insurance today. Look for our
Big "I" Symbol ... call on us
for the facts about complete
insurance protection.

FEEDING THE MULTITUDES
In 1958 the population of
the world was estimated at over
two billion eight hundred mil-
lion. By the year two thousand,
this figure is expected to reach
6 billion three hundred million.
In other words, 35 years from
now we will have to find the
means for feeding more than
twice as many people as today.
Moreover, each person's por-
tion will have to come from a
considerably smaller piece of
land, as the increasing popula-
tion takes over more and more
of the earth's agricultural area.

Would you be surprised to open your Christmas mail
next month and find a card like this? I'll bet you would
be, and very pleasantly, too. And you'd soon find that a
gift of Long Distance service has• a pleasant "rebound"
effect: making your calls for example, will not only
please You, but those you call.
And it's all so simple! To give a gift of Long Distance
service, Wingham customers need only call our Business
Office at 357-3911 to give us the name, address, and tele-
phohe numher of the recipient, and state the amount ($2.00
minimum) to be credited to his or her account for Long
Distance calling. We look after it from there, and will
even send out the card ourselves, if you wish! There's
no fuss, no bother, and . .. no extra charge!

Got Your Number
Have you ever wondered why telephone repairmen and
service representatives always ask for your telephone num-
ber, even after you've given your name and address?
Here's the reason: Since names or addresses are often
duplicated, but telephone numbers are always unique, tele-
phone people file records according to telephone numbers.
This method guarantees accuracy and insures faster ser-
vice.

Super Sleuths
Not all detectives visit the scene of the crime. Nero
Wolfe solves murders from his penthouse conservatory.
Hercule Poirot retires to exercise "the little grey cells" and
telephone men track down reports of trouble from their
testboards in the central office. If a telephone man re-
ports that your line has been "fixed'' without a (house visit,
telephone detectives have painstakingly followed clues and
located the difficulty, not in your instrument, but in miles
of telephone cable or in the complicated switching equip-
ment. And, of course, there's no extra c(targe ... prompt,
efficient repair work is part of our committment to pro-
vide each customer with good telephone service.
