week at steeles corner north of toronto as the first step towards the establish ment of an underground voice highway which will link toronto with barrie and orillia the lead sheathed cable will initially pro vide 70 additional circuits on this important long distance route and will also carry radio programs the toronto barrie section of the new cable is expected to be in service next spring and completion of the barrie orillia section is scheduled for the fall of 1950 sixtyfour miles of the 82 mile cable will be buried by means of a cable plow and the remaining 18 miles will run through under ground conduit thus the new long distance circuits will be pro tected from wind and ice storms a long distance cable network extending from windsor to quebec city was laid largely by the cable plow method that is being employed on the new north ern route the cable is filled with gas under pressure as a protection against moisture if the lead sheath is punctured the gas pressure pre vents moisture entering for some time and when the pressure drops below a certain point an alarm is sounded at the repair centre the repair crew is then able to gauge roughly the location of the puncture and by taking a series of pressure readings in the vicinity they are able to calculate the position of the break to within a few feet final location of the puncture is made by the timehonored method used by bicycle the area of- the break is painted with soap suds and bubbles then reveal even the smallest puncture in this way the cable can usually be repaired before moisture has caused sufficient damage to inter rupt service the original 70 circuits provided by the torontobarrieorillia cable may be considerably augmented in future years by the use of a carrier system and eventually it may carry as many as 800 con versations simultaneously eventually the company plans to extend the cable facilities to north bay initials indicate turtle at least 62 years old flora 111 sept 13 myrtle the

important items of the fall school opening and one of the countless worries it brings to the homemaker is the preparation of school lunches not only do the lunchtoters demand variety but they must also have nutritious food the consumers section of the dominion department of agricul ture suggests each school lunch contain milk some meat fish eggs dried beans or peanut butter a vegetable or fruit or both breads fats or sweets to round it out if the school child cannot buy milk at school or where lunch is eaten include it as milk soup or cocoa in a thermos the home economists of the department
