Before you swing Into action with any such plans, could I ask yau ta glve us a caîl at Bell Canada ? We'll be happy ta check, fi-e ai charge, ta sec if any cable is located on yaur prapei-ty. Just give us a caîl at 611 and we'll get the information ta you as quickly as possible. All It takes is a hefty thrust ai a shovel or a well- sunk fence post ta damage buricd cable, If by chance, you should choose a spot above that cablè. This damage could disi-upt regular telephone service, long distance, data-scnding facilities or even emergency communications that might be transmitted by tele- phone w1-e. Just ta show you wbat can bappen ta aur carefully buried cable F'm including a pbatagi-aph this month. Although it looks like a piece ai modemn sculpture, there was nothing very artistic about the mangled and toi-n wires Ici t inside when a corn- borer sliced Into it.

Many people seern un- sware that there are many Independent telephane comtpanies whieh serve thausands of subserîbers within Ontario and Quebec, In fact. ai the end ai 1967 there were a total of 241 telephone companies or telephane systems ather than Bell Canada servlng 425,484 telephones in the two provinces.

Indeed, we refer to thern au systeins. for the:y have their own Unes and tele- phones but theyv terminate on the switchboards of other companies. Includlng ours. Usually these small companies or systema serve fishing camps, gamne clubs, minin enterprises or Iuniberlng camps.
