18 THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Ontario, Thursday, October 17th, 1963 RD.Little & Son Limited - Yonge Street. Richmond Hill o 285-1105 The members of the com? munity club are extremely busy these days preparing for their bazaar on November 9, which is being convened by Mrs. Jane Williams and Mrs. Louise Ruston. A toy table will be an added attraction this year. Don- ations of new toys and used toys (which will be renovated) would be greatly appreciated. Anyone having spare toys around can have them picked- up by contacting Mrs. Phil Mil- ler, or Mrs. Vera Dockman, Jefferson Community Club AIS-0231 Woodbridge A'I'.8-I361 SEPTIC TANK SERVICE BRAND NEW ELGIN MILLS - JEFFERSON For months. the area around the zoo at Chester. England, has been plagued by a rash of wrong numbers, and telephone employees thought they were slowly losing their minds. Every time the repairmen went out to try and track down the culprits. they came back empty handed. But one day the light dawned, and a telephone pole at the we was raised about four feet: the culprit they were looking for happened to be George, a giraffe. George, 18 feet tall and all of it apparently playful, liked to grab the telephone wires with his tongue and let them twang back. The wires would get tangled up and cause telephones to ring all over the place. They stopped when the wires unwound. Ever answer the phone only to find no one on the other end of the line? Downriglit irritating, isn‘t it? Usually when this happens, the calling party has sud- denly realized that he has the wrong number, and simply hangs up. Elementary politeness would require that he excuse himself for bothering others needlessly, but he prefers to hide in the shade of anonymity and compound his fault. A simple, “I'm sorry, I've got the wrong num- ber,“ may not quite make up for the mistake, but it certainly indicates a sense of social responsibility and, as often as not, is all that’s needed to bring a sympa- thetic or even humorous reply from the “wounded” party. Of course, no one in his right mind would ever purposely call a wrong number, butâ€"despite all our emphasis on looking the number up and jotting it down, etc.â€"-mistakes do happen. When they do, it‘s good to remember that two wrongs can never make a right. Incidentally, wall phones are available in white, ivory. grey. beige, yellow, pink, red, and green. White seems to be the most popularâ€"probably because the wall phone is especially. ideal for the kitchen (where it’s close It hand, yet out of the way). and white matches the stove and fridge. FULL .___ DOWN PAYMENT - - by Bill Barnes your telephone manager BELL LINES LEAVE YOU HOLDING THE BAG? FALCONS â€" FAIRLANES â€" GALAXIES Since 1961 we have offered this exclusive low payment plan that has meant new car ownership to hundreds who otherwise would have had to consider a used car. We are still the only dealer in Ontario that can deliver a new car on this plan WITHOUT CHATTELS 0R ENDORSERS. The interest rate on the balance is a low 51125}, i.e., $55.00 per $1,000.00 per year.

No siree. a wall phone is a wall phone is a wall phone, and there's no need to drag over a table or whatever to rest the receiver on if you want to leave your caller for a moment. No need, either. to try a “test drop" to the floor to see if it's safe to just let go (puhleezc don’t do this), or worry about the receiver dangling there against the wall. As is seen here. the handset hangs quite snugly on the notch on the top. TWO WRONGS The community club is very active in the district and the Jefferson School is one of its main interests. Special projects for this year are the lighting of the school yard area and the planting of trees around the school.

Track Meet Twenty-six persons â€"â€" Cubs and parents. two Scouts and a scoutmaster â€" formed the group that toured the Dunlap Observatory last Saturday night. The night was too cloudy to enable them to stargaze through the telescope. Instead they enjoyed a very entertain- ing film of the Universe â€" this film was shown on TV a few weeks ago â€"â€" and both children and adults were in- tensely interested. Their ca.)- able guide was Mr. Percy from the University of Toronto and after the film showing he took them to the dome to show the group how the telescope oper- ated and all it’s various move- ments. Mr. and Mrs. Fulman and family, Mr. and Mrs. Doug Andrews and family, Mrs. Ma~ bee and new cub member Kle- vin, were among those enjoying the evening.

Needless to say. it was an enthusiastic audience. some of the children being surprised to learn that the entire present- ation was sung â€" and every- one (adults and children) being witch. The bus was supplied by courtesy of the Jefferson Com- munity Club who made this memorable aftern00n possible. Parents‘ day at the school was on Thursday afternoon, .October 10th. The procedure was somewhat changed this year. talking individually with the teachers â€" the teachers of each room addressed the parents and explained what they were try- ing to achieve â€"- not only to teach the three “R‘s” but also to help the children in the ad- justment of getting along with other children. It was also stressed that parents should express their appreciation of their children’s efforts and give a word of praise when their children bring their work home to show them.
