Introduction This short note presents two simple applications of the notion of boolean models for first-order classical logic. One application is a constructive proof of the following conservativity result: if a first-order theory T proves a formula 8x9y OE(x; y) then the theory T 0 which is T extended with a new function symbol f and the axiom 8x OE(x; f(x)) is conservative over T . There is a short proof of this fact using the completeness theorem and the axiom of choice. By the axiom of choice, any model of T can be extended to a model of T 0 : Hence, if / is a formula which does not mention f; this formula holds in all models of T if it holds in all models of T
