THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE â-  â- â- â™¦_ Canada A Leader In Telephone Usage This district was well repre- «nti'<i at Monlrial, June 25 and 26, when t(iIc>v>hoiie men and women hav- ing upwards to twisnly-one years' ser- vice in that industry attended the 14th annual convention of the Charles Flectford Sise Chapter, No. 26, of the Association of Ttlfphone I'ionecrs of _ petuatinjf the name of the late C". F. Sise Sr. who, fifty-seven years ajfo, successfully co-ordinated many of the telephone interests in this country and brought into being the Bell telephone organization that now nerves Ontario and Quebec, the Cha))- ! tralia, respectively. ter is the Easteni Canadian branch On the basis of telephone rievelop- <«|||f the North American movement a- ment throughout the whole popula- TOonK telephone workers of all ranks j t,on, flanada with 10.!);) telephones per and .sy.stems who have attained their years of majority in the business. Always well to the fore in telephone matters, Canada continues to lead the •world in its per cai)ita usage of tel- ephone service. Woild wide telephone statistics compiled as of January 1, 1936, and now made public, show that an annual â-  mverape of 210.8 telephone eonver- fiations were held in Canada for every man, woman and child in this country. The United States, with a comparable figure of 197.0, was in second place, Denmark, with 17.3.1) per capita calls, and Sweden with 152.2, followed. Canada's position amonif the coun- tries of the world in the matter tt tel- ephone development in the larger cen- tres continues to be impressive. With 187H telephones per 101) population in communities of 50,000 and more, this Dominion ranks sixth in the list. The •United States is fifth with a figure of I'J.'^. Sweden is the leader in this regard, followed by Switzerland, Nor- way, and Dnmark, in that order. In less peopled areas, Canada ranks ill fourth plae«', this world-wide .sur- vey reveals. Canada, it is shown, has 7.28 telephones in operation per 100 population in communities of less than 50,000 persons. Next to the kadeiship of the United States with !i>!7, there follows New Zealand with !i S4 and Sweden with 7.50. Fifth si.xth, and seventh positions are taken â-  y Denmark. Switzerland and Aus- CEYLON mil' hundred j)e()ple is second only to the United States with a comparable fijrure of I.S.fiO telephones. Den- mark is third with 10.64; New Zealand fourth with 10.50 and Sweden fifth with 10.28. Of telephones in .ser\'ice per 100 population among larjre cities of the world, Vancouver is fourth, Toronto eleventh and Montreal eigh- teenth in the list. These latest statistics make it clear that Canadians continue, as they have done over a lonp i>eriod, to place a very hiph value upon their telephone services. This fact is emphasized in their continuing to he the world's leaders in telephone usage. rx Great Lakes Circle Cruises Canadian Pacific Steel Steamer "Manitoba" Gross Tonnage 2616 â€" Length 303 Feet Port McNicoll or Owen Sound to Fort William and Return LEAVE MONDAYS RETURN SATURDAYS tmiii fr.iin DURING JULY and AUGUST I'url .Mc.X'icdll or ( Hvlii Snund ...

Johnstones's collie in follow- ing the roller last week, mysteriously ilisappeared after they stopped the machine to toss a stone out of the pathway, and when the procession started up again, it yelped so fur- iously from its retreat that the horses could hardly be prevented from run- ning away. Between trying to stop the yelping canine and the runaway steeds, J. P. had a real man's job on his hands, and when the chargers fin- ally brought up in a corner of the field the riddle was solved and the rumpus stopped by the purp leaping out of the roller, where, like the mus- ical melody, it went "round and round." â€" Walkertnn Herald-Times.
