War has taueht a lot of those in uniform â€" and their parents, too â€" to rely on telephones more than ever. Our plans are ready to make rural tele- phone service in Ontario and Quebec available to a greater number of users in the post-war period. Much of the preliminary work already had been done when war interrupted the program extending rural telephone service. We intend to resume it as soon as the necessary materials and manpowM are available. * .* -4 It Credit Auction Sale, farm stock and implements, Saturday, October ftth, 2 milf» south uf Singhampton ami two mik'H east of Mclntyrc.
