Ackert. was occuovintr that offered his services in an advisory capacity whenever required. He complimented the members on their election and made a number of val uable suggestions. The major prob lem facing school boards at this time was said to be accommodation and Ingersoll Board is no exception. A letter was read signed by the public school teachers, asking for a hearing regarding adjustment of salaries. Janitor L. Pickard also wrote asking for an increase in his salary. Principal A. G. Murray in pre senting his report, drew the atten tion of the members to the shortage of accommodation and continued in crease in the number of pupils. The number of beginners had increased from 93 in^ 1939 to 117 in 1946 and at the present time a number of rooms are provinding double classes.

JANUARY 15th, 1948 Austerity—Then Prosperity— Always Freedom While Canadians are being urged to adopt an austerity program of living, in order to extricate themselves from present economic difficulties, there is no reason to feel that we are bidding fare well to prosperity or that our standard of living is being hopelessly reduced; War's aftermath is still upon us and linked with it is the beginning of a new period in the country’s history; the type of which will be largely determined by the way in which we follow the austerity program. No Promised Land was ever reached without a river-crossing, and the more orderly the crossing, the more quickly is the other side reached. The New York Herald Tribune recently carried a special supplement devoted to the “resources and ‘ basic economic strength” of Canada, stating that it “suggests a reassurance for the future.” Men tion is made of the two countries as being amongst the few champions left of the private enterprise system. One reason for the reassurance which Can ada gives to the economic picture, as seen by the Herald Tribune, is what it terms our “wealth in 1 pulp and paper stock, in lumber, fur and miner als.” Although it does not do so in print, one can almost fancy the New York paper exclaiming, “lucky Canadians!” While the United States de posits of iron ore are said to be fast nearing depletion, Canada has in deposits along the Que bec-Labrador border, iron ore, which according to reports, is said to be several times greater and in composition equal to the richest ore ever found in the Mesabi range, where the bulk of the United States’ ore is found. If the New York Herald Tribune considers Can ada’s economic prospects to be so promising as to warrant a special supplement, as well as editorial comment, there is every reason for Canadians themselves to view the future optimistically and to work hard to overcome the present difficulties. Part of the job will be less indulgence in material luxuries, in order that we may retain the priceless luxury of living as free citizens. / Consumer Organization Seeks Support of All Women • A membership drive is being made throughout the country by the recently-formed Canadian Association of Consumers. Women are being urged to join the organization, as it is claimed that only united action on their part, can bring the price of food to reasonable levels. Women’s sphere rhas practically reached the saturation point in’ regard to organizations. Fol lowing the first World War, the craze to organize gained impetus, and it has continued unabated ever since. But there are signs that the trend is about to turn in the other direction. It has been remarked that just one more organization is nec essary—one composed of women willing to stay at home. For some years the anomaly has existed that whereat there were more home comforts available to the masses than ever before, women spent less time in their homes. They appear to feel differently now, and the thought of joining another organization holds less interest for them, As for the high prices which the C.A.C. view*, as a menace to the stability of the country, it was generally considered that they were the result of an increased demand on reduced supplies. After years of rationing, pent-up desires had created such a demand for certain foods that prices just naturally soared, and people willing to pay the price could always get the goods. However, that latter fact might hold the key to the insistance with which executives of the C.A.C. claim that consumer organizing is nec essary. Could it be that they, many of whom served on the Consumer Branch of the W.P.T.B. consider that the production and distribution of consumer goods has become so organized, that the consumer will be a helpless victim unless he is protected by the strength of unity? ! Stock-Taking Reveals Shortages Annual stock-taking is in progress in many of the stores in town, with merchants taking advan tage of the post-holiday lull in business in order to complete their inventories. The majority report a continued shortage fin most lines of merchandise. The story of supply and demand is one of up^ and downs, sometimes?not easily explained, but all adding up to make the retail business a difficultone to direct, A year ago there was a scarcity of children’s shoes. Now they are fairly plentiful, but shoes for grown-ups, especially women, are in 'short supply. Men’s clothing is still scarce, and consequently, expensive. There is not complete satisfaction with distribution methods yet. One dealer reports having received 20 dozen men’s shirts on Christ mas Eve, which,r had they arrived earlier, would have found a ready sale. y Assurance of more efficiently-operated price controls, would be welcomed by business men, it having been pointed out that if any reduction in prices should come, heavy losses are likely to be sustained by those stocked with merchandise pur chased during the reign of high prices, unless the decline is carefully controlled. This lack of assurance is reflected in wholesale purchases, and in fact, it is responible for a sense of uncertainty permeating all lines of business.

Friday, Jan. 9— Without the fanfare that marked the opening of the Seniors, the local Junior “C’s” opened their schedule on Friday night last with a win over the Guelph “B's” 6-4, before a good turnout at the Recreational Centre. The brand of hockey as played by the juniors showed what co-o^-ration will do rather than mainly individual efforts of those in the higher bracket. Referee Mooney will remember this game for quite awhile as he handed out 29 penalties, which included 13 majors and a misconduct, with the visitors drawing 17. Ingersoll opened the scoring in the first period when Wadsworth, scored on a pass from Maurice at 18.30. Guelph tied it up in the second per iod at the 2.10 mark, Campbell scor ing. At 7.20 Wadsworth got his sec ond goal, assist to Hamilton, and at 13.00 Wadsworth again scored with assists going to Hamilton and Land, to complete the “hat trick," Guelph made it close when Hogan scored from Priamo at 15.45, but the locals came right back with goals by Lewis from Bartram at 16.00 and Cussons from Lewis at 16.30. Guelph’s third goal came at id.45 Bolzon scoring. Guelph opened the ^coring in the third period at 3.20, with Currie scoring. The last scoring play was at 7.10, Maurice from Lewis. The ice was slow and to make matters worse, the respective goalies were forced to stand on a large patch of bare cem ent at one end.

MacLeod asked him to carry amessage to White Kock. Dick was toldthat Will and Marlon had left town.Their uncle, Alexander Macl^od.seemed glad they had rone. MacLeodoffered to pay Dick well and furnishequipment, food and dor team. Allplan- wen completed for Dick to startfor White Rock that nlxht. Will was merry; he might becareless. It would blow over. Thebest thing to do was to say nothing. Plainly Marlon had stood byWill. Byrne had looked forward for weeks to seeking his pal andhis sweetheart. But It they werenot here, that closed it. He wasnot going to get out of MacLeodwhere they were. He could look them up after he came back fromWhite Rock, with money in hispocket. Money from MacLeod. i "I’ll go tonight, tor the outfit and five hundred dollars,” he said. "Half down, rest when Icome back.” " 'Tls preposterous. I could getany of a dozen to do it for fifty.”Byrne shrugged his shoulders. "The trip Is no worth sic' mamount,” MacLeod went on. Hisspeech thickened to a Scotchburr, sure sign that the subjectwas Important. "I’m not considering the valueot the trip,” Byrne answered.“I'm considering the risk to my life. A big risk, MacLeod. Theweather’s none too good. If thespring thaw beats me to WhiteRock I may never get there, orback." “You're a good woodsman.Byrne, you ken the trails—and 1Can trust ye. For that I’ll offeryc a hundred dollars.” “1 thank you for your goodopinion," said Byrne dryly. “Youflatter me. But that’s my price.” He could see the struggle going on inside the man. Something wasstirring the very soul of Alexander macbeoa. it went aeeper man money or trading. The tradersighed. “You press me hard, but you're a trusty man,” he said. " 'Tls abargain then, gin ye start withinthe hour. I'll close the store andget what ye need mysel*. Marie ’llserve ye supper. And I’ll gi' you a the money in advance. I trustye. Byrne. Ye must gang through." The MacLeod could be liberalwhen it paid him to bo. He leftnothing necessary out ot theequipment, choosing it carefully,packing it with experience. Afterhe reached White Rock, Byrne planned to go out and take thest/ige at Horsehide when theweather mended. Until then hocould use one of the abandonedcabins, stay with Okl Nlpegosis, in a pinch. Then he would findWill and Marlon. Marie, Algonl squaw and house keeper tor The MacLeod, her facewrinkled like the bark of anold hemlock, her eyes sullen,brought Byrne a savory meal, witha pint of good Burgundy. She was a good cook, but Byrne felt an ancient grudge /Still hot In her oldveins. There was hatred there, suppressed, of all the white man'srace. Many wondered why The MacLeod kept her. Byrne fanciedit was because he sensed herenmity and loved to handle it, subdue it to his will. For muchthe same reason that the trader had kept an eagle caged until itdied of longing for the crags. Marie lit the lamps and closedthe shutters. The old squaw was eminently efficient, but whenevershe entered the room behind hisback Byrne had a curious and un pleasant mental picture of a knifebetween his shoulder-blades. MacLeod showed him tho message. Byrne had expected somesort of a packet holding symbols, at least to have the envelope inscribed in Algonquin ideographs.But the address was written in MacLeod's bold English script. TO NIPEGOSJS By the hand of Richard Byrne The envelope was sealed withwax. MacLeod wrapped it again in oilskin, handed it to Byrne,laying down also a money beltwith the price tucked into itscompartments. “I've put in a new pipe and halfa pound of my own tobacco,” heannounced. “There are beef cubes and rice, besides pemmican andtea. Do ye wish a rifle as well asthe Colt?" Byrne decided agaiqst the rifle.It meant eleven pounds extra weight If he had to get meat, hecould shoot grouse with the revolver. It should be sufficient forprotection. The danger did not liethat way. Though he was notquite so sure as he made ready.Once again the sinister suggestion of eerie menace came to him. Heshook it off. MacLeod opened therear door ot his house, glancedabout him. "Good speed to ye, Byrne," thetrader said. “This affair deals wl'my honor. It ca's for haste. Ye’rewell paid—in advance. Let noneo'ertak* ye between here andWhite Rock.” The woods swallowed up DickItyrne. He made no Are thatnight. The morning saw him pressing north. At this season a mantook his life in his hands whenbe hit the trail. THE MacLEOD was abed andaeieep when there came a scratching on the frosty panes of theroom where old Marie slumbered tercet him. He had got his cartridges, and he had got startlingnews. His mood was a little grim.He had to forego a pleasantnight’s carouse. “I go,” he said ab ruptly . “Byrne is good for a white man,but I know better trails at thistime of year. I shall catch himbefore he crosses the barrens.” She opened the door again for him, and he was gone, bent In thonight like a timber wolf, vengeful and cruel as the biting frost. It was just twenty-four hoursafter Dick Byrne had left BisonCrossing, sixteen hours afterPeace River Jack—Kinocetl, now that he was on the trail, whichwas not a peace trail—had started after, when another visitor arrivedat Bisbon Crossing. He was nottotally unexpected by The MacLeod, though visitors were rareat this season. He came on busi ness that the weather might notpostpone. There was a weekly stage, asleigh, that had dropped off DickByrne on its route to SL Joseph’sMission and Spruce City.

Dobson, Preaident, declares European recovery moat im portant factor in Canada’s economic life. "Should American Continent fail to provide what ia necessary to save Europe, the effect on our economy would be serious.” Intelligent participation in Marshall Plan will be of service to both Canada and the United States. James Muir, General Manager, reports marked increase in commercial loans . . . public deposits again increase . . . profits improve. Royal Bank depositors now total 1,750,000. Unique service to foreign traders provided through 71 branches in foreign countries. The vital importance of, Europeanrecovery to the welfare of Canada, and the part Canada can play inrestoring Europe to economic health, were stressed by Sydney G. Dobson,President of The Royal Bank ofCanada, at the bank’s annual meeting. “Should the American continentfail to provide what is necessary tosave Europe”, he said, “the effect onour economy would be serious. Imention this because it is not generally enough realized that Canadadepends to the extent of 30% of her national income upon export trade.In addition it should be noted thatCanada’s exports to the WesternEuropean countries in the last prewar year composed 47% of her total exports, a ftjet which emphasizes theimportance of European recovery tothe maintainence of Canada’s econ omic health.”Mr. Dobson pointed out that Can ada had already done much to helpprovide Europe with the necessitiesof life. Canadian exports to Europein 1946 had amounted to $932 million. In the past few years Canadahad provided over $2 billion worthof aid to Europe in the form ofloans, credits and gifts. “However what has been done by Canada andother countries, has not beenenough,” said 'Mr. Dobson. "Plansare under way which it is hoped will,in the course of a few years, per manently restore European economichealth." The Marshall Plan, fone ofthe happiest suggestions ey£r modein international^, relations,”find theGeneva trade agreementsember were, he said, import to world recovery. An ’programme for North Am ti cipation in the Marshallbe of service to both CanUnited States.

The total personal expenditure on consumer goods and services amountedto $3,714 million in 1938 and $5,926 million in 1946, an increase of 60per cent compared with our population increase of 10 per cent.

More than 27 per cent of the valueof our exports stems from ourforests."Better protection and improvedcutting practices have contributed in recent years toward preservation ofour forest wealth, but there is stilla very heavy annual loss from fireand insects which should be substantially reduced. Forest conservation is a ‘must.’"There can be no better exampleof newly created wealth than that ofour mining industry. Forty years agothe total dollar value of our mineproduction in a year was $42 million;in ten years it had become $108 million; in the peak year 1941, it hadreached $395 million. The mines haveadded to Canada’s wealth some $12 billion since mining statistic werefirst kept.“Not much is heard in Canadaabout our fisheries, although theygive employment to 85,000 persons in the primary and processingbranches, and the investment in themamounts to $75 million."Development of hydro electricpower in the last forty years hasbeen rising sharply and consistently^Our present installations, producing',10*4. million horespower, place us second only to the United States, indevelopment of water power, and asyet only 20 per cent of our potentialpower has been developed.

Wehave expanded in keeping with theprogress of the foreign country andthe development of Canada’s external trade. The result is that The Royal Bank of Canada is very muchintegrated with the commercial lifeof many nations and has become fortheir business men a real and attractive symbol of Canada. "Last year I made reference tothe unique positon we occupy re garding our branches abroad and Ibelieve it bears repeating, because itis our belief that there is no ade quate substitute for direct representation by our own trained organization, experienced in Canadian waysand fully informed by close liaisonof the needs and offerings of Canadian businessmen.“Apart from world-wide relationswith banking houses, we haveseventy-one branches outside ofCanada. There is a constant flow of information regarding market andgeneral conditions from these branches to a central department atour Head Office in Montreal, andsimilar information reaches us fromcorrespondents throughout the worldwhere we do not operate branches ofour own. This, you will appreciate,enables us to furnish a highly efficient unmatched and valuable service to exporting and importing clients.” TRIBUTE TO STAFF A warm tribute to the staff for their splendid co-operation andservice, and devoti to the welfareof the business in which they were engaged was v "I havepersonnel in which t A n sw er ing Your Q u e stio n s ABOUT IMPORT CONTROL S ^O S T of the countries which ore Canada’s regular customers have not recovered sufficiently from the war to pay, in the normal way, for all the goods they need, despite extensive help from this and other countries.

I am proud to say thatthe staff of this bank, with all thesenecessary qualities, has also the spirit of teamwork which is so essential to happy relations, and whichcounts so much in the fine results of the year’s activity.The staff of the bank numbers in excess of 10,400—more than half ofwhom are women. They have donea splendid job throughout the year. We are grateful to them and commend them highly to you." MOUNT ELGIN RECIPE FOR PROSPERITY These figures, Mr.' Dobson said,were gratifying and encouraging, buttwo dangers had to be faced to maintain present prosperity. One dangerwas the possibility of economic col lapse in Europe. The other was inflation. “Price rises,” he said, “makeit more necessary than ever for usto measure our real advance indollars of constant value. The rest of the rise in money value is for themost part the empty air of inflation.When money incomes arc excessive relative to the available supply ofgoods, as they are now, the logicalway to reduce the pressure on pricesis to increase the supply of goods.We have the physical equipment |to do this, but the human factor isneeded: a competent workman seeking to get out of his machine thewhole production of which it iscapable. I believe that what I said a year ago still holds true. There arestill too many people who make high-wages and plentiful leisure the greatest aims of their lives; still toomany who believe that less production and more pay per worker is asolid base for prosperity. This is, ofcourse, a fallacy. An honest day’swork for an honest| day’s pay is stilla good recipe for prosperity, perhapsthe only formula that will insure lower prices, a higher standard ofliving, and lasting good times for all.“Part of our current output, ofcourse, is devoted to enlargement«nd replacement of plant, and equipment. Necessary replacements of plant must be made, aid at timesexpansion is essential; hut a strenuous effort rtiust be made to limitnon-economic expansions of construction. Much construction is goingforwrad now at costs so high that only continuous prosperity at present levels can make it pay. CONSERVATION NEEDED "Canada’s present prosperity,which is spread so widely in our nation, is based upon the development of Canada’s natural resources."Agriculture, because it supplies the basic need of men for food, is of highest importance.“This source of i livelihood forfarmers and -of revenue for thecounts la worth preserving. It isbecoming recognized that the fertility of our soil is not everlasting.Fortunately Canada has an oppor tunity to apply measures of conservation rather than of reclamation. GENERAL MANAGER’S ADDRESS In presenting the bank’s 78thAnnual Report, Mr. James Muir, General Manager, reported that thebank’s total assets now stood ut $2,- 093,641,218,61 and that liquid assetsconstituted 74% of the bank’s liabilities to' the public. “One feature of this year’s balancesheet is the marked increase in commercial loans in Canada,” said Mr.Muir. "This item is $126,138,687.47larger than a year ago, reflecting anexperience common to all banks. The reason for it is the very high level ofbusiness activity, the expansion ofproduction facilities, the increased volume of goods on hand, and, ofcourse, the influence of higher prices. It takes more dollars than itdid a year ago to conduct a comparable amount of business. As a con sequence, the amount of commercialborrowings represents a substantialsum, and I think I may say in passingthat I do not view a rapid and largeincrease in bank loans with equanimity. "The number of personal loansmade during the year continues large. These are principally in the $500 and under category, where, infact, the number of new loans totalled one hundred and fifty-fivethousand. When one considers thehigh volume of these personal loans from banks, plus the substantial business of personal loans and alliedcompanies, all at a time when thereis full employment and high wages,the thought, occurs that perhaps a living-beyond-one’s means policy is abroad. If so, it is unhealthy,” Mr. Muir pointed out that therehad been anjincrease of $33,654,989 in the bank’s public deposits and thattotal deposits stood at $1,934,185,-849. He reported that the number of depositors continued to expandand now totalled over one and threequarter million. Mrs. Clifton Fleming of Sault Ste.Marie, is visiting at the home of Mr. John Fleming.
