It seems
almost too good to
be true; but if our small efforts
as an organization and as individual
workers, have 'helped even remotely
toward this end, we are happy and
thankful. •
Daring the year we held ten meet-
ings and one executive meeting, be-
sides the annual meeting. The aver-
age attendance was nine. The annual
,yvas attended by 19. The voluntary
workers remain about the sante as
last year, about sixty, divided almost
equally between the village and the
units.
Our output this year has been
slightly lower than last, owing, no
doubt to the cessation of hostilities,
coining, as it did, in the middle et
the year. But since that time we
have :been carrying on work for the
destitute of Europe, the wool which
had been allocated for navy knitting,
being used instead for small boys

swords into plowshares, as one might
say; and at present work is beginning
on ten layettes, also destined for war -

Officials of the Association state
that Financial Statements to he pre-
sented at annual :meetings of these'
562 telephone systems, during Jan-
uary, February and March are ex-
pected to show an increased overall p
investment figure. Gross revenue in p
many of these systems serving rural p
Ontario have improved during the .O
war years. Due mainly to material L
and labour shortages of the .paat •
few years, most of these systems Ho
now, however, anticipate necessary
major expelldituree during 1946-47
for re -construction and improvement
of plant and service facilities.
Because of 'these necessarily in-
