"Get Me Mrs Jones"
*WHEN you ask one of your staff to
"get Mr. Jones on the telephone,"
always be ready to speak when he
answers.
q It is discourteous in the extreme to call him
to the telephone and then make him wait your
convenience. No practice has led to more
ill feeling and abuse of the service than this.
If any waiting is necessary, the party calling
should do it.
of Always be ready to speak when the

Registration
The Canada Registration Board has
been oreeted foe the purpose of car-
rying out the regietration of the
man and woman power of Canada
in order that the information eo ob-
tained may be utilized to proceed
with the mobilization of the entire
reeourcee of the nation towards the
enoeaaete] pr'oseoution of the war.
Data of military yahoo will be secur-
ed, but the main purpose to be serv-
ed by this Cenana of all males and
females over 16 years of age will
undoubtedly be the better distribu-
tion of agricultural and industrial
labor to the end of eeonring the
maximum results from the produc-
tive labor of the Canadian people—
especially es regards the essentials
of the war, One of the most bene -
Wel results which it is expected
will follow the Census will be a
more efficient organization of the ag-
rionituralforces of the country, be-
coming daily more imperative in
view of the constantly diminishing
food reserves of the Entente Allies,
and the imminence of a food short-
age which threatens our own oiviliau
population.
" Registration Day," the date of
which has been fixed for Sat-
urday June 22nd, will give ev-
ery Canadian :effected by the law an
opportunity to perform the great tui-
tional duty of oitizenehip. The reg-
istrar for South Huron; A. J.
Grigg, is appointing deputy regis-
trars and assistant deputy registrars
in sufficient numbers to register the
entire population. Regietration of-
fices or booths will be opened in
conveniently situated locations, iu
schools, halls, 0te,, Ju every mnnioi-
pality, and certificates of registra-
tion will be issued to every regis-
trant.
In order to facilitate this gigantic
task, school boards and teachers,
Patriotio • and Red Cross Societies
are invited to assist the registration
officials in every possible manner by
providing free of charge suitable
buildings such as school houses, etc.,
and by furnishing volunteer helpers,
who may assign their remuneration
to the Red Cross if desired, to do
the clerical work. The registration
offices will be kept open from 7
a.m, to 10 p.m. hence the necessity
of providing lighting facilities for the
registration places,
While nou•registration entails many
penalties of the most serious char-
acter, it is expected that the Can-
adian people will look upon regia-
tretion 00 a great national duty to
be performed, not out of a sense of
eompulsiou, but rather in a spirit of
patriotism,' and as en act of encour-
agement to our gallant overseas de.,
fenders, The registration of the man
and woman power of Canada will go
forth to the world as the solemn
expression of Canada's unalterable
determination to support her own
and the allied armies until the final
viuto'y,
The few minutes required for regis-
tration, or the one day's salary
donated by the willing workers, will
be a small saorifioe indeed compared
to those now being made by Can-
adian manhood in the forefront of
the battle lino, Yet it will be of
inestimable value in maintaining the
splendid morale of our unsurpassed
oitfzeu soldiers to know that those
for whom they are lighting on the
fields of France and handers are
not recreant to the solemn duty of
the hour in their beloved Canada.
