LIONS WILL STAGE
NEW PAPER DRIVE
SEASIDE—A paper drive will
be staged Sunday, February 2,
by the Seaside Lions club which
will share proceeds with the jun-
ior class of the Seaside high
school.
Those in charge of the drive
have requested that everyone who
has paper accumulated tie it in
bundles or pack it in cardboard
boxes and place it in a conspicu
ous place for pick-up by the
Lions’ trucks.
Former paper drives by the club
have brought excellent results, the
last bringing in 16 tons, and it is
hoped that the February 2 col
lection will be as great.

Install tion and Repair of
all Electrical Equipment
We are working hard to provide tele
phones for everyone who wants one, and
to rebuild our service until it is again the
finest in America.
Before we can accomplish these objec
tives, we must install a tremendous amount
of equipment—wires, cable, switchboards,
buildings and so on. We call this equip
ment "plant".
We are installing this new equipment
as rapidly as we can secure it but many
critical items such as lead and copper are
still difficult or impossible to obtain.
During the year of 1947, we promise
grow" as much new "plant" and as
many new phones as the supply of incom
ing materials will allow.
