PERSONAL ITEMS Every once in a while we have to remind our readers that we like them to send in the names of visitors, etc. each week. We try to collect as many of these items as possible ourselves but of course, we are only human and can only make a note of those e see. If we are away for a weekend we must depend entirely on our readers for these news items. Your little item of visitors may seem unimportant to you. So much so that you hardly deem it worthwhile sending in for publication. Yet how many have noticed that the personal column is one of the first items a reader turns to upon receiving the paper. This is not done simply-for curiosity's sake, but because your friends take a genuine pleasure in reading that friends or relatives have been to visit you. So send those little personal items along each week no matter how unimportant they might i. We enjoy receiving them and your friends enjoy reading them. NEWSPAPER IS LOGICAL PLACE Here's a good advertisement which is taken from an exchange. An editor and a merchant were discussing the virtue of bill-board advertising. The merchant contended that more people read the bill-board than the newspaper. After a lengthy conversation in which neither man would give in, the men parted. The next week the merchant came tearing down to the newspaper office wanting to know why the obituary of his wife's mother was not in the paper, especially after he had seen the copy was taken to the newspaper office. "Well," said the editor, "I knew you wanted the obituary read by the peeple so I took it out and nailed it on the bill-board." --Just think it over. A HOME SAFE TO LIVE IN A surprisingly high percentage of accidents happen in che home. To find the hazards and remove them, it is a good idea to make periodic surveys of the house and grounds, from basement to roof. Loose boards or steps on the verandah, a projecting nail, broken windows and loose scatter rugs on a polished floor are just a few of the hazards in most homes. In almost all these minor danger spots, a few minutes work will make them BABY TAN A coat of tan can add to the beauty of any baby but.it must be carefully and "painlessly acquired. By letting him be in the sunshine before an open window, well protected from drafts, he can acquire an attractive tint. Ten minutes a day for the first two weeks, fifteen minutes for the next two weeks and so on, up to thirty minutes daily will be sufficient. His eyes should be protected from direct glare. Any restaurant that serves food on improperly washed dishes or with unclean silver may be contributing to the spread of disease germs. Local health departments, if notified of such cases, will take action to have the places cleaned up and it is in the pub- DUNDONALD August 2nd, 1955.

Lambert Plant-- The Bourkes all work at the Bell! Away back in 1922, a young man by the name of Arthur Bourke joined oui company. Little did he realize that his children--all six of them --would follow in his footsteps to careers at the Bell. Today Mr. Bourke would be more than ' proud of his handsome family. We know we are! The Bourkes, like all telephone people, know from their own experience that the Bell is "a good place to work". They have found pleasant associates, and interesting work at good wages. They have also found satisfaction and opportunity in serving the public in an essential business. And this is as it should be, for good telephone service depends upon people who like their jobs, and convey this feeling to our customers. This is the feeling that is largely responsible for "the spirit of rJtC% service" you find in Bell employees tiyjf wherever you meet them. THE BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY OF CANADA
