The 1961 edition of one of Canada's best read books, the telephone directory, is now on its way to telephone subscrib- ers in Bowmanville, J. W. Lowry, Bell Telephone mnan- ager for this area, said this week. The new directory should be used as soon as it is re- ceived, Mr. Lowry stated. Bell customers in Bowman- ville will receive 3,200 copies of the directory this year. To- tal circulation throughout the territory served by the tele- phone book will be 75,981, up 5,227 over last year's 70,754. Ail Number Calling, under which telephone numbers cach consist of seven numerals, is being introduced in Oshawa, Brooklin and Port Perry coin- cident with the delivery of the new telephone directory. Mr. Lowry said that be- sides the change f0 the seven- digit form of listing numbers in these three centres, there are hundreds o! other chan- ges included in-the directory. A good way ta avoid calling errors, he noted, is for the in- dividual subscriber toanmend his Blue Book o! Telephone Numbers, or other personal lists of teleplone numbers. Extra copies of the Blue Book may le obfained free from any Bell business office.

Mrs. Frank Westlake of Solina and her daughfer were shopping at one of the local grocery stores. When they arrived home and sfarted to unload, they came across a bag containing $900 in cash and cheques. They phoned the grocer who was mosf grafeful. He had begun ta wonder where the money bag had gone. A sincere paf an the back goes to Mrs. Westlake for being Sa honest. t t t i. t UNFORTUNATE ACCIDENT - On Saturday, July l5fh, Mr. and Mrs. James McMullen of Janetville were scheduled ta celebrate an event so rare that the preciaus gem people haven'f set aside a diamond, gold or anything else ta mark if. On thaf date they will have been married 70 years. The family planned a reception, but unfortunafely, lasf Thursday Mrs. McMullen broke her hip and is now recuperating in Oshawa Hospital. Their many friends will be hoping Mr. and Mrs. Mc- Mullen will sf111 be able ta have some sort of party even if if does f ake place in hospital. He is 94 and she is almost 91. t1 ~ FIRST STOCK IN - Bowmanville's newest estab- lishment, the liquor store on Church Sf., is about ready ta open. Huge trucks were backed up ta the rear doors on Tuesday, unloading what every- one wafching assumed ta be merchandise ta fill the shelves. As of this moment, no information concerning an afficial opening has been received, but some are hopeful samples will be given away, etc. Defails are also lacking concerning personnel who will be manning the store. One repart stated that over 50 applicants were seeking emplayment as clerks. NO FILM SHOW - The faîr-sized crowd which came ta see the moforcycle films at the Lions Centre on Friday evening failed ta enjoy the pro- duction. Unforfunately, the films did nat arrive f rom the United States. The chap who was bring- ing them broke a wheel on his car somewhere along the route and did flot arrive in this area until affer midnight. Projecfionist AI Fletcher missed ouf on an even!ing's garden culfivating, unfortunately, but probably has caught up with the fast-growing weeds by now. NICE WINTER - For the record, it should be mentioned that the weather has been unusually cold for July. Many residents have been burnîng coal, ail and gas furnaces for af leasf a few haurs a day to remove the excessive chill and dampness from their homes. If this continues, summer will have passed us by before we realize if is here. t t ft BIG PARADE - Many from this area attended the Dominion Day parade in Cobourg, sponsored by the Kinsmen Club of that community. They report the best evenf of ifs kind in many years, wifh many bands, superb floats and a generally good time. Ladies watch Mrs. Fairbrother make beautiful floral arrangements In staff Kenneth N.
