PHONE CALLS DELUGE FAMILY AS JOURNAL READERS RING The John Botterells were an- swering their telephone over the weekend and having to say they didn't want what was offered. They feel that if there ig a baby sitter in town who failed to see their classified advertisement in last week's Journal, it must be a mir- acle. What makes it newsworthy is the fact that their one line "Wanted" © advertisement said "Wanted a baby tender" when it should have said Tenda, instead of Tender. Seems a Tenda is a gadget for looking after babies of tender age, taking the form of a table with a hole in the centre where baby sits. Over the telephone the Journal staffer got the word wrong, but the Botterells who may have tender ears from an- sgering so many phone calls did secure the desired Tenda. Have you thought about using a Journal classified to sell some- thing for cash, or to learn where something you want may be avail able? These low cost advertise ments, like all Journal advertise: ments reach "The people who buy." Just. phone your classified advertisement to 1298. Mr. and Mrs. O.
