To provide facilities for fast-E grawing long distance service, theE Bell Telephone Company will complete in 1946 a grass con- struction pragram ai over $3,-t 000,000 for this purpase, alone, ac- cording ta T. R. Traynor, com- pany manager at Oshawa.î Part ai the overaîl plan wilh result in expanded long distance facilities serving Bowmanville,c Whitby and Oshawa. Additionalt circuits or vaice channels connect- ing this area wîth Huntsville and North Bay wilh be installed, ta tie in with a large scale praject in- creasing the number ai circuits between Toronto, Oshawa, North Bay and Winnipeg. During the past few years,Î there has been a substantial in-1 crease in the total number ai tel-1 ephones in service, but the in-c crease in the volume ai long dis- tance calîs has been much great- er in proportion than the increase in telephones.t In 1935., the hast year befaret the impact ai war produced a ris- ing level ai activîty throughaut the country, average daily long distance connections recorded by the Bell Company totalled 57,000. In 1945 the daîly average was 127,-1 00-well over double. In 1946 ta date long distance traffic has increased a further 17 per cent over the same period last year. In this area alone, mare than 2,000 caîls are placed every day ta out ai tawfl points. Existing facilities have been taxed far beyond their intended capacity, ta handle this large vol- ume ai business. During the war, manufacturers ai telephone equip- ment devoted their output almost entirely ta the needs ai the armed services. The telephane company was, therefore, cobliged ta post- pane many ai the expansion pro- jects, which should have begun then ta be campleted in time ta provide for even normal require- ments in the postwar period. The long postponement has made al] the more burdensome the task ai setting up sufficient facilities ra- pidly enough now ta cape with the present high volume ai traffic. Recruiting and training the staff ai operators necessary ta handle this grawing traffic load is also an important phase ai the prob- lem. In its long range construction program, the company is taking full advantage af recent engineer- ing developments which have in- creased the voice-carrying capac- ity ai long distance limes. For example, on some of the new equîpment now being prepared, it will be passible ta carry on as many as 16 conversations, simul- taneously, over a single pair oi wires, without interference. While the expansion work is go- ReaUizing Value of 'Navy Liqague in Post-War Work Ne*tonvil1eé On May 15, Mrs C. Ferguson, Newcastle, was hostess at her home ta 27 members of Newton- ville W.I., for their meeting. Ar- rangements were completed for the District Annual meeting, June 13, at Solina and planning schedule for the year's work. A course in household planning will be taken ta include interior de- coration, proper grouping of fur- niture and kitchen equipment, etc. Three dollars was voted ta Insti- tute for the Blind. Comfort com- mittee reported illness in hospital of Mrs. John Couch. Mrs. Samis and Mrs. Kimball will visit pa- tient bringing flowers. President announced 150 dis- charged servicemen present at Orono banquet. Those unavoid- ably absent wîshed ta convey to committee and township appreci- ation and thanks for gift of hand- some pen. Sidney, only son of the Ferguson's, recently discharg- ed from army, addressed the la- dies, thanking them for parcels he received while on duty in the South Sea Islands. Social program in charge of Mrs. E. Haigh, was wholly enjoy- ed. Mrs. C. Cowan,.with Mrs. J. Hockin, accompanist, sang with pleasing effect. Mrs. P. Brown, a quite talented reader, recited "Aunt Polly Goes Shopping." Two interesting talks in line with the day's topic, Historical Re- search, were heard. Mrs. J. C. Hancock who had taken nurse's training at Ottawa, told of the beauty o! the city with its moun- tains and rivers, parks and rock gardens and also described Ri- deau hall, home of the Governor General and family. Continuing the speaker said that while a ba- chelor may be a success as prem- ier, it is necessary that the Gover- nor General be married since his success in office so often depend- ed upon the wise counsel of his lady. The speaker repeated that questionable assertion, that a man rises or falîs ta the level of his wife. Mrs. Hancock praised these British ladies, 16 in all, for the fine contributions they gave ta Canada during their stay at Ri- deau Hall. Miss 0. Warren reviewed brief- ly the history of Newcastle from 1871. Back in those days New- castle and district had 6 churches, and 6 taverns, the latter exclu- sively for males. Womanhood dwelt on a higher plane in those days when the hand that rocked the cradie ruled the world. At the tea hour deliciaus re- freshments were served. On be- haîf ai herseli and members, Mrs. J. T. Pearce thanked the hostess for the privilege and pleasure af meeting with her and for the kind reception. Mrs. Ferguson who is an enthusiastic Institute worker and has served at some time in almost every office, said in her reply, entertaining the institutE was always to her a rare pleasure. There was hearty applause. Bell Trelephone Co. Expand Long Disthnce $3,000,000 Programn "Canada is in the main street af wvorld affairs," Hon. Leopold Mac- aulay, K.C., President ai the On- tario Division ai Red Cross de- :hared at the official apening ai niew Branch headquarters in Ha- milton. "In trying to, plan for peace it is important ta retain the connections and the strength oi Red Cross. Every race and creed [s represented in the organization and it is an ideal base irom which a great nont-partisan citizenship can be develaped ta meet the na- tional and international chal- lenge ai today." National Commissianer Dr. F. W. Routley presented the keys ai the building ta Branch President C. R. Drynan. He said that Ham- ilton Branch, through two warld wars and in the years between, had been one ai the bulwarks ai Canadian Red Cross. Today in peacetime, Red Cross had a great- er opportunity than ever ta pros- ecute the services which wouhd enhance the lives ai aur own Can- adian people, inchuding a peace- time blood donor and big Outpast Hospital program. The Society planned ta add at least 25 mare hospitals throughaut Canada, ta this service. Hon. Russell T. Kelley, Minister ai Health, braught greetings ai the provincial government and spa1je ai future gavernment grants which would be forthcom- ing for extension ai the Outpast Hospital service. Awards for war service in the Branch were presented ta 70 workers by the Division president, and swimming awards presented by Ontario Commissioner John Marsh ta a graup ai boys who qualified in the Red Cross Water Safety program. It's not what happens to a man that counts but what he happens to do about it. ing farward as rapidly as possible, it will be many months yet before long distance service can be com- pletely restored to its pre-war standard of efficiency. We are a fortunate people. We walk the middle road. Through our Government's wise measures of control, we have, by resisting the temptation to rush after luxuries, been able to enjoy them in moderation. We have, by keeping necessities at the top of our buying lists, kept the prices of both necessities and hixuries at the bottom. Hardly another nation in the world today can point to so fine a record. Yes, we are a fortunate people because we walk the middle road- the road of moderation in ail things-in ourthinking, in our actions and in our pleasures. In the years of greater abundance, which are so surely ahead, The House of Seagram believes that moderation, as always, will continue to be a quality essential *to the welfare of the nation-and the individual. 1THE HOUSE OF SEAGRAM 9. emaOr llgl~e e . 4wY'~e a ~4 THURSDAY, MAY 30th, 1946 1 - -- - T1e- best.way -ta -Jase -aurI.U1D- tei s v t)*--l "«Auy eur L ft%. erties is te lose sight of our res- row. rather than recover from te- ponsibilities. jday.________ j' -Please Note Leaders in Canada's business and professional life are becomxng more and more aware o! the value o! the Navy League's post- war work among boys in their formative years and its sponsor- ship o! The Royal Canadian Sea Cadets. This is a movement that has, as its primary object, the development o! character and good citizenship. It takes boys in the 'teen-age group and equips them for the responsibilities that will be theirs as they enter young manhaod and eventually take their places as men. F'rank S. Rutherford, Deputy Minister of Education in Ontario says: "Sea Cadet training is es- sentially good whether' for civil- ian employment or a career at sea." Gardon C. Leitch, President of the Ontario Division of The Navy League and well-known in financial and business circles says: "It refreshes a boy physically, stimulates him mentally and' quickens him spiritually." 0f the 93 Corps and 15,000 Sea Cadets thraughout Canada, 38 Corps and 6,500 Cadets are locat- ed in Ontario and of the 14 sum- mer camps operated by the League, five are in this province. Beginning in 1943, the Navy Lea- gue has awarded 17 scholarships to Sea Cadets eligible for entry ta The Royal Canadian Naval Cahlege at Royal Roads, B.C., 10 ai which were won by Ontaria lads. Established in 1896, this is the League's "Golden Jubilee"~ mark- ing fifty years of service ta Can- ada and the Empire. We now seek ta saidify, and further expand the Sea Cadet movement sa that its influence may be felt in every community. The "challenge of youth" cames today with greater force and fre- quency than at any time in the past and, in the opinion af re- cagnized authorities, the training oifered in a Sea Cadet Corps is a sound and practîcal answer ta that challenge.
