Frank Williuas Pompletes 40 Tears, Wilh hie Bell Telephone Company Pictured among a group of long- service personnel o! the Bell Tele-ý phone Company of Canada shown. in the October issue of Blue Bell, the monthly magazine of the Com- pany, was the photo o! Frank Williamns, Bowrnanville manager for the Bell Company, with theý notation that he bas completed 40 years of faithful service with this great organization. This called for an interview quite the reverse of "Country Boy Makes Good in Big City" to the less farniliar one, "Native Son Makes Good in Home Town." The fact is that Frank lias com- pleted 41 years in the telephone business for he took a year away back in the early days to help extend the service o! the Manitoba Government Telephones. But he returned to the Bell Company the year following and bas continued in its service throughout this dis- trict ever since. First Jobs Frank Williams was born in the Westmount district o! Bowman- ville, one o! a farnily o! 6 boys and 5 girls, aIl o! whomn are stili liv- ing. The family borne was later established on Scugog St. fromn wbich Frank went to school and got a good drilling from old "Mas- ter" Malcolm McTavish and a more studious insight fromn Miss M. M. Jennings, stili bis neighbor near his borne a! Silver and Cburch Streets. From his first job witb John G. Manning in his cooperage shop Frank apprenticed in the grocery business with Sanders and Scott, where the A & P store is now ho- cated and which is managed by his brother Percy. He received a salary o! $2.50 a week wbich in- cluded the privilege o! driving the horse-and-wagon delivery, and this led up to bis connection wîth the Bell Company. Joins Bell Co. Alex Pr'ce was local manager for B-.11 at the time and hitched a ride with Frank to the South ward to repair a broken Une. Ai- ex was looking for an alert lad to do the leg work and offered Frank a job. The going rate was $15.00 a month but Alex upped the ante to $20.00, so Frank asked him to put it in writing in order to talk it over with his mother. It took a bit of persuading since the newfangled wires and electric- ity and climbing poles had to be considered but Frank finally won consent. That was back in No- vember, 1906.

His new titie, "Inspector" may have something to do with the decision, but it meant only getting about on foot to examine lines and phones then in existence.

The Scugog line served Hamp- ton, Solina, Enniskîllen and Ty- rone. The first Hampton subscri- bers were Ed. Hastings, pump works, Mr. Johns, implement deal- er and R. Katerson, undertaker. On the Solina lime were John Rey- Frank Willilams nolds, Tom Baker and Wes Brooks. Enniskillen bad the Fred Lee store and the office o! Dr. C. W. Slernon. But Dr. Siemon op- erated a private line to Haydon, Burketon and Enfield which was later purcbased by the Bell Com- pany. At Tyrone, John Mutton's Store bad a phone. Another rural line served the Courtice district with dpbones in- stalled at Rundle's store, also in the bornes o! Albert Rundle and Sid Brooks. The Salem Tele- phone Co. later taken over by the Bell, as well as the Bethesda and East Darlington line, 'provided bookups for those districts, W. J. Bragg, Thos. Jackson and John Wight were the firat subscribers. In the beyday o! early phones as rnany as 20 subscribers wrestled for a chance to be heard along a single line.

The switch over from magneto to dial was ef!ected in 1937 at a cost o! $100,- 000. Adjacent towns, including Port Hope, Cobourg and Oshawai have not jet adopted the dial system. Six Durham Students At Kemptville Agricultural School Latest of the Durham County boys to check éln at the Kempt- ville Agricultural School for the 1947-48 season were Bruce Tay- lor, Enniskillen and Charles Lang- maid, Solina, who enter their sec- ond year.

Young Taylor and Langmaid who reported two weeks late last year were also two weeks late this year, having stayed on at home to complete fall work. Miss Lena Taylor, R.N, of the County Health Unit, aunt o! Bruce Tay- lor, drove the boys to school over the weekend. Bazaar and Tea 0f Durham Chapter At Lions Centre A very successful bazaar and afternoon tea under the aus- pices o! Durham Chapter, O.E.S., was beld in the Lions Community Centre, on Friday, Oct. 24. The building proved an ideal location for the various activities. The tea room, under the direction o! Miss Mary Jewell, Mrs. Evelyn Jamieson, and their comrnittee was tastefully decorated in mauve and yellow, with Miss Editb Weekes and Mrs. Annie Bounsal pouring tea. On the other aide o! the hall, the bazaar room was bright with afternoon sunshine, pumpkins and green decorations. The long ta- bles were well filled at the be- ginning with home baking, babies' wear, fancy work, novelties, touch and take articles, aprons, and country store produce. Guests were received by Mrs. Victoria Frank, Worthy Matron o! Durhamn Chapter. The lucky winner o! the quilt draw was-Mrs. Arthur Baker. and o! the pillow cases, Mrs. Bes- sie Densem, who returned themn to the chapter to raise furtber money fo r benevolent purposes.

Domm A very noted leader in church and commu "nity affairs, Rev. Gor- don Domm, pastor of Bathurst St. United Church, Toronto, was guest speaker at the annual joint meeting of the Bowrnanville Ro- tary and Lions Clubs beld in St. John's Parish Hall, Friday even- ing, Cet. 24. Speaking on. the subject,"Towards a Way of Life" Mr. Domm proceeded with high eloquence to impress-upon bis au- dience the necessity for a more earnest, individual acceptance of the real values in living as taught in the word of God in order to al- lay the spiritual poverty now threatening world rehabilitation. .Preceding the address the audi- ence was aroused to a receptive mood by another guest, Lion Jim Dyer, Newcastle, who sang old populars and lîfted the assembly in a stretching chorus that rocked the rafters. His enthusiasm was a bit of prescience following the great banquet provided by the la- dies o! St. John's. An auction sale of Boy Scout Apples further alerted the over-fed for the recep- tion of the great message to corne. The Speaker Jim Presson traced the progress of the scboolboy Gordon Domm frorn Harriston through Victoria College to a mission field in 1924, then back to Toronto University for a Master of Arts degree, then on to a Theological and Teacher's College in New York, before en- tering the ministry in St. Cathar- ines. He came to Bathurst from Owen Sound and during recent years attracted a large following from bis broadcasts over CFRB, bis work -in ousting underground garnbling and in the Sunday ev- ening Forums in Bathurst Unit- ed Churcb. New Order Mr. Domm said lie had no thought o! presenting a complete philosophy of living but would project a few key thoughts on in- dividual responsibilities, for 'in times like the present when noth- ing appeared permanent -but1 change, some guideposts ought to be erected to be sure o! a proper1 sense of direction. He drew, at-, tention to the great many meet- ings being 'held today, eacb with their own absorbing comrnunity interests, each striving to do good, but hie asked: "Are they trending to the wider view necessary atj this titne; is there a sense of un- ity developing to enable Canada to know whither she is bound?" With the world teetering on the brink o! disaster and when a questioning whisper around the table at the United Nations Con-1 ference may deeply disturb the1 whole mass of humanity, surely it becomes incumbent upon each o! us to attempt to think out sorne co-operative plan toward a better way of life. The speaker suggest- ed that we may be viewed au "comrnitted to death" lni ordinary affairs and bis thought was te flic attention on work to be done la the wider sphere. Kant's Phllosopby Mr. Domm took as backgrounct for bis thesis tbat man was iiot created to become an entity for exploitation,, two categorical im- peratives enunciated by Imman. uel Kant, the great German phil. osopher, who in the latter part of the l8th century, îssiied bis fam- ous Critiques establishing a phil.. osophy founded upon pure reason*. Kant who neyer travelled 20 miles frorn bis birthplace, projecteci these axiorns down the ages: (1) "Treat every man as an end, neyer merely as a means: (2) Si> act that the law o! thy life shaUl become the law o! ail mankind."e The speaker observed that the ten- ets o! service clubs, embracing youth service, work among crip. pIed children and kindred under. takings were quite o! the order conceived by Kant. He added thq suggestion o! Kingsley: "To be cornpletely miserable,,thinlç onlyý o! self," to give point to the mes%. sage. Constantly thinking o! selfi, seeking to use others to advance sel!ish interests bad no place in the moral conceptions of a new Dollar Precedence The speaker paid some atten.. tion to the relationship o! capital and labor, to the incidence o! de- pressions and other items in the national econornic fabric ou! of which in rnany instances the ai. mighty dollar took precedence ov- er reactionarles to decry democý- racy and paved the way for dic- tators to exploit man as a means to enslave hirn. We bave prob- ably neyer had a complete democ. racy but what we have bas been so precious tIsa! we have fough~t bitter W.ars to preserve it and its attainment is lirnited only by the hurnan factor. Speaking o! bow an apprecia- tion o! law and order can éasily be cornprebended, Mr. Domm told4 o! bis work in New York with un- derprivileged boys. On annuàli visita ta the country the first per. iod of the journey was throug - turnstlles leading ta tbe aubwayý Many boys tboughtlessly ducke4 under the barrier ta save a nickel, a means to an end.
