Quickly and easily it keeps you in touch with everything and everybody everywhere. There are 400,000 more telephones and two million more calls a day than there were three years ago. And service is getting better all the time, In three years, however, costs of important raw ma- terials for telephone lines and cables have risen sharply. Copper prices have doubled, zinc and lead prices tripled. Yet, up to now, despite rising costs on all sides, there has been no increase in the basic telephone rates established 22 years ago. Few things give you so much real value at such low cost as your telephone. We've broken all records but there are still orders we. haven't been able to fill. We will keep right on working , and building to make your telephone service a bigger bargain than ever -- to continue to provide more and better service at the lowest possible cost. > +N THE BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY OF CANADA Mr. Hugh Rose gave an excellent address on Sunday morning, yaing for his theme "Do We Know God 1" ext Sunday service will be at 11 o'clock, instead of the usual time, 11.15.

Canad great ader mer At the polls on June 27 the voter must ask himself, ahead of anything else, who - This warm and essentially simple should be head of the government. In Louis St. Laurent, Canada has found a great national leader. That he had high abilities of the mind was proved by his career in law. That he had wisdom im cabinet, unique gifts in parliamentary debate and a quick ~ grasp of large affairs became clear as soon as he entered the Govelnment. In international affairs, as one of the origi- nal advocates of the Atlantic Pact, he 2 made himself a world figure who spoke out as no Canadian before him, in the councils of the nations.

In blood, language and instinct he combines the qualities of two great To the voter it is equally important that St. Laurent is the leader of a truly" national party, with proved strength from coast to coast, the only party which can hope to form a stable government after the election.

When a man adopts a flag, usually of his own de- sign, it is known as a private signal and only recognized by those fami- liar with the man and his boat. How- ever, most yachtsmen can spot a club burgee a mile away whether famil- iar with the boat wearing it or not. Thus we feel good to think that our burgee has been. seen' in Hamilton, Toronto and points east. We know it has been recognized because we have heard people say; 'Port Perry Yacht Club eh, they're getting around.' And so we are. The 38 foot cruiser 'Nyoda' cros- travels.

Speaking of our own little lake we remember the thrill of cruising in lovely green water that extends a hundred fathoms below our keel, weed- less and mudless. They say it is a good scheme to have an inch of water under your keel at all times. It's a good scheme to go to bed with the birds too, but it's more fun to stay up several hours after that time.

Handling and recording your chequing transactions is an i important job. Your bank must do it right --or a competing bank will. You'll see to that! : Suppose there were no competition . ..

We asked sailors in the R.H.Y.C. if they had any trouble with weeds and' mud banks. Of course not, and if they did they would sail in some other neck of the woods. Who can blame them? *. We certainly can't. Yet here we are, bringing in a great harvest of weeds on our rudders and having the time of our lives doing it.
