To Convert Claremont Exchange Claremont -- Plans to convert the Claremont telephone exchange to dial operation in the latter part of 1962 were outlined this week by J. M. Lowry, Bell Telephone manager for this area. He said that the project will require many months of consideration, includ- ing the construction of a dial central office building. Following its com- pletion Northern Electric Company craftsmen will begin installing in it the dial switching equipment and as- sociated apparatus which will auto- matically connect all local telephone calls under the dial system. At the same time as work is pro- gressing at the dial central office building, Bell Telephone crews will be busy rearranging, extending and modernizing the wire and cable net- work serving the Claremont exchange area so that it can be adapted to dial operation. With the introduction of dial ser: all Claremont telephone numbers will change. "The new ones will con- sist of seven figures and no letters, conforming with the All-Number Call- ing plan which is gradually being in- troduced throughout Canada and the United States. . According to the Bell manager, months _of advance planning must go into a dial changeover program as the equipment is engineered and tailored to meet the specific demands of the This makes it possible ther Mrs. Wesley Beacock and sister, to carry.out the , gotual change from Easter Flowers FOR THE BEST BUY IN EASTER Rou a _BOUQUETS--$2.00 up Call ~ PORT PERRY FLORIST YU 57932 "EASTER LILIES--$1.50- up HYDERANGEAS -- $3.00 up Potted Roses, Hyacinths, Tulips & Mums Excellent Assortment of Cut Flowers EXTENSION PHONES save webr and' tar=come in 9 colours, 3 models.

The simple, painless test that will be given to the people of the area is the tuberculin test, This measures the possibility that any resident of the area has been exposed to the di- sease at one time or another, A posi- tive reaction to this test does not mean that the subject has TB but merely that conditions are present eventually develop. It is one of the bests known means of finding TB in its earliest and most easily corrected stages. FORDER BROS. MEATS Week-End | Specials SAUSAGE ........... SE a-- WIENERS ............
