Witherden your telephone manager Back in the early •days of telephone services telephone directories were pretty simple affairs. In fact, the first "directories" were simply cards which listed names of all subscribers and which early subscribers could keep by their telephones. The first tiny book-type 'directories in 1880 also just listed the names of those who "had telephones. A little later numbers for the subscribers were added. Sometimes the books explained to the customer how to speak over the telephone; warned him not to use the telephone during an electrical storm or gave the hours that service was available. Ads for everything from shoes and livery stables to corsets, mineral water awl stoves, brightened the pages. Today's 'directories also contain a fund of information. A section at the beginning of the book is ready for you to jot down numbers you might need in an emergency. Just by flipping through the intro- ductory pages you can find out how to place a con- ference call, a call to vehicles and ships at 'sea or calls to 150 foreign countries. They list the Area Code numbers for many places across Canada and the United States so that you can place long distance calls faster. And, for the many Ontario and Quebec communities which now have Direct Distance Dialing, the directories explain all about the long distance calls that you can place yourself. Also, for communities which have toll-free calling with nearby centres, lists of these communities are provided. There's all this and more in the front of your telephone book . . and in addition at the beginning of the Yellow Pages there is a whole page of postal information. Why not let your directory help you get the most out of all the service that is now built into your telephone? * * * Know anyone having a wedding anniversary soon? Perhaps' you can use this handy list of anniversaries and what they are called. I know, I have trouble re- membering any but the silver or golden anniversaries. 1st—paper; 2nd—cotton; 3rd—leather; 4th—linen or silk; 5th—wooden; 6th—iron; 7th—wool or copper; 8th—bronze; 9th—pottery; 10th—tin or aluminum; 11th—steel; 12th— silk; 13th—lace; 14th—ivory; 15th—crystal; 20th—china; 25th—silver; 30th—pearl; 35th—coral; 40th—ruby; 45th— sapphire; 50th—gold; 55th—emerald; 60bh—diamond. On any anniversary a telephone call to local or out-of-town friends is welcome. Your voice will be one of the most treasured gifts your friends receive. Fifty years ago a telephone repair superintendent drew up a set of rules to guide his men in their work. This was part of his advice: "Treat everyone as you like to be treated. but, dolo't forget your horse. If you want to know the horse's aide of it, just take off your coat and hat some zero day, hitch yourself to the same post with your belt and stand there about two hours. Be courteous and polite. and don't be afraid to hand out a little jolly occasionally. It doesn't hurt anyone's feelings to be jollied a little." The advice about the horse is now a little out of date, but the second part of the advice still applies. Today we still try to include "a little jolly" in our work only we refer to it as courtesy, politeness and friendliness. Thinking ahead to Christmas lists yet? How about an extension telephone for same favorite on your list -- it would help to keep that Christmas feeling all year long, News from Gorrie Venturers Will Meet on Mondays The Venturer Group of the Boy Scout movement met Mon- day night to discuss formation, organization and Apple Day.

Wit ought to be a glorious treat, like caviar; never spread it about like marmalade. G. A. WILLIAMS, 0.0. Optometrist 9 PATRICK STREET W. WINGHAM Phone 357-1282 "Do Christians witness as well as they should?" asked the Rev. John Crawford, 13, A, , B.D., when preaching at the Communion service of the Bruce Presbytery of the United Church of Canada at its meeting Thurs- day in Lion's Head United Church. of which Rev. Dr. C. Plant is the minister. The preacher was concerned that Christians should be more willing to witness to Christ even through suffering. Mr. Craw- ford is chairman of Bruce Pres- bytery. That the mortgage on Mira- machi Camp, Port Elgin, had been paid off, came as good news. Over 200 children and young people were estimated to have attended Miramachi dur- ing the 1966 camping season. The Presbytery considered questionable advertising schemes of modern business. It was decided to ask the Commit- tee of Evangelism and Social Service under the convener, Rev. G. Ball, Ripley, to con- sider the matter. Reports were given by the Presbytery's three Commission- ers to the recent General Coun- cil of the United Church of Canada meeting at Waterloo, by W. Avis of Kincardine, Rev. E. Nelson, Walkerton and Rev. H. Stevenson of Chesley. A church Sunday School closed down one of its depart- ments for lack of a teacher, said Rev. Stanley Tose, Field Secretary for Christian Educa- tion of Hamilton Conference. The church school only opened again when volunteers came forward and accepted training for their important job. With best wishes, Presbytery approved a call to Rev. D. Steven, Belmore, from Egmont/ ville, London Conference. Congratulations were given to Mr. G. Trigger, lay preach- er, Tobermory for recent scholastic attainments and to Mr. B. Aitken, student minis- ter, for his work at Sauble Beach during the summer. The assessment for the pas- toral charges of Bruce Presby- tery was set at sixty cents per resident member. The court was informed that a T.V. program called a teach- in, concerning the question of Church Union, in which prom- inent clergy and others would take part would be shown on most T.V. stations across Can- ada on Saturday, October 22, at 10 a.m. and "Singtime" would re-commence on Sunday, October 16 at 5 p.m. Rev. Lorne Keays of Paisley is the new Secretary of Presby- tery. On church bulletin board: "You aren't too bad to come in, You aren't too good to stay out:' Mr. and Mrs. Wm.

It covers an area of eleven mil- lion square miles in the South Pacific, and straddles the Inter- national Date Line. This means that Bishop Vockler can leave Fiji one day, fly for 41 hours, and arrive in Samoa the day be- fore -- all without leaving his diocese! The diocese includes the Fiji Islands and the Gilbert and Ellis Islands which are Brit- ish Colonies, Tonga which is a self-governing kingdom, West- ern Samoa now independent but formerly a New Zealand Trust Territory and Tahiti which is French. The service, to which all members of the public will be welcomed, will begin at 8:00 p.m. and will be conducted by the rector of St. George's, the Rev. G. G. Russell, and the rural dean of Huron, the Rev. J. P. Gandon of Exeter. Joint choirs from Huron County's An- glican churches will lead the singing.
