Cubical dice discover- ed by archaeologists in excava- tions dating as early as 600 B.C. were found to be both "cooked" and "loaded". Although simi- lar deceptive gaming imple- ments are still being manufac- tured, modern gamblers guard themselves against "loading" by us!rig cubes made of transparent material. an older 1,500-yard machine, The 40-ton crusher has a 13 x 40-inch jaw and can handle stones up to 13 inches thick.

Campbell, manager of Bell Telephone for Wingham area, has announced rate in- creases. Because the number of telephones in the Wingham ex- change has outgrown the present rate group, increases will go in- to effect on September 4 to bring rates into line with those charged in other exchanges with a similar number of telephones. The increases, ordered by the Board of Transport Commis- sioners, are relatively small. For example, the monthly rate for two-party residence service will be 10 cents higher, and the individual residence service 20 cents higher. Mr. Campbell said that, as required, Bell Canada notified the Board on April 27 that the number of telephones in the local-calling area of the Wing- ham exchange had exceeded by more than five percent the maximum number of telephones in its present rate group. Telephone rates for any ex- change are governed by the number of telephones in the local-calling area, in recogni- tion of the principle that the value of service to each cus- tomer increases as the number of telephones increase. Tele- phone customers served by the Wingham exchange now have 2,119 telephones in their local- calling area. The following table provides examples of the new monthly rates for service in the present and new rate groups for the area. (The new rate is the second figure): Residence Service: Individ- ual line, $3.70, $3.90; two- party line, $2.95, $3.05; multi- party line, $2.85, $2.95; ex- tension telephones, $1,00, $1.00, Business Service: Individual line, $6.30, $7.05; two-party line $6.05, $5.65; multi-party line, $4,00, $4.25; extension telephones $1.35, $1.35,
