Healy Is Laid to Rest Ingersoll lost one of its most respected citizens and business Salaries for municipal employeeswere discussed briefly at councilmeeting on Monday night, but ac­ tion on the matter was left for a committee meeting. R. J. Kerr, chairman of theBoard of Works, called Councilsattention to a recommendation fromthe 1953 council that municipalsalaries should be reviewed.. He reported that employees of his de­ partment were not too well satisfiedwith their salaries, particularly since one municipal employee (themeter constable) had been given,araise. Mr, Kerr also felt that the men should be paid when they are called out for such work as sanding after hours or during the night. Clerk Winlaw told Mr. Kerr that overtime is paid to Board of Works men.Councillor Dr. J. G.

E. Pembleton was' the only absentee from the meeting which was brief and of a routine nature. The sum of $700 wasgranted to the Public LibraryBoard; $3000 to the SeparateSchool, and $1000 to the PublicUtilities Commission as per re­ quests.The by-law providing for the1954 expenditure on roads or streetsw'as passed. Total expenditure isestimated at $21,000; $20,000 for construction and maintenance of roads or streets and $1000 for bridges and culverts. The depart­ ment of highways subsidizes roadexpenditnres to the extent of one-third and the budget will be sub­mitted to the department for ap­proval.Authority was also given to pe­ tition the Ontario Government forthe statutory grant under the High­ways Improvement Act on expendi­tures for roads and streets made during 1953. This totalled $22,953.73. The Public School Board request­ed tentative approval for the build­ing of a four-room school on KingStreet East and enclosed a letter giving the tentative approval of the department of educataion.

Explanation Needed There was a hunting expedition in Dereham Townshipon Tuesday that has left a very bad taste in the mouths of a great many Dereham farmers. It is to be hoped that thehunters involved can - - and will - - make a satisfactory ex­planation of their actions. It would seem that the farmersdeserve an explanation.One of the farmers/at least, on whose land the expedi­tion took place, first knew of the hunter’s presence when heheard their guns - - high-powered rifles, by the sound. He went from his house and found the hunters who told him theywere from the Games and Fisheries Branch and that theywere after deer for research purposes”. It is believed four deer were killed and others were wounded. It is estimated there were about 25 men in the party.It is quite possible that the hunters were doing exactly what they said and that they had the right to do so; but many questions are bothering the people of Dereham.First of all it is clearly stated on a gun license that sucha license "is not authority to enter upon private propertywithout permission of the owner”. Also it is a known fact that government officials have been urging upon all huntersthe need for the courtesy of seeking this permission if happyrelations are to be maintained between farmer and hunter. Why, then, did these men not seek permission?The hunters used high-power rifles. This was forbiddenin the deer hunt in this county in the fall and at any time, the use of such guns would seem most unwise in a farmarea. Dogs, also forbidden on the fall hunt, were used onTuesday, it is said.The farmers would appreciate any effort to check on dis­ease among the deer, which run, often, in the same fields withtheir cattle; but they wonder if it is necessary to kill four from one herd "for research”.The farmers are also wondering if all the hunters had theright to hunt in Dereham Township, either by their office, orby holding a Township license. Recently a number of district hunters have had their guns confiscated for not having this Yesterday feelings were high in the neighborhood. "These men make the hunting laws - - surely they have not the right to break them”, was the general attitude.Time taken, before the hunt, to explain the expedition, might have saved all this. As we said before, it is to be hopedthat those involved can - - and will - - make this explanation. EDITOR’S NOTE::—It is ironic that in mail which arrived shortly after the above story was written, there wasa release from the Ontario Department of Lands and Forests.It is headed “Ten Commandment of Country Courtesy”. The first commandment is “Always drive into the farmer’s yardand (underlined) ASK PERMISSION TO HUNT”.

This was evidenced from the findings of the annual congregational meet­ ing held Monday evening in the parish hall following a delicious dinner served under the able con­ venership of R. A. Stone and his committee. The attendance num­ bered about 175. The various organizations showed that considerable effort had been made during the year as the total amount raised was $6,- 323.46. Included in the list are: Women’s Guild, Women’s Auxil­ iary, Evening Guild, Altar Guild, church choirs, Disking Club, i Men’s Fellowship, The A.Y.P.A., 1 Sunday School, Junior Church, The Junior IV.A., Girls’Auxiliary, Girl Guides, Brownie Pack and Boy Scouts and Cubs, The total receipts for the year were $25,700.00, (including mis­ sions).The meeting was presided overby the rector, Rev. C. J. Queen.In his report Mr. Queen stress­ed the great importance to-day,of personal evangelism and said that the Church that is fulfilling i its true mission must endeavour • to place evangelism at the top of ' its program. “It is through you as members year, stressing the numbers ofbaptisms, confirmations, servicesof Holy Communion and deaths.Special reference was made tothe cathedral lighting campaignand it was of interest to all tohear that the church attendanceis gradually increasing and thatwith it is a substantial increase in the number of envelope con­tributors.

But too often we forget that our plans depend on other’s plans, and what, under ideal conditions, might be smooth sailing becomes diffi­ cult or impossible of execution. If we wait for conditions to change and the interferences- to be removed, our first plans may have to be mater­ ially altered. The idea of alteration causes inde­ cision. What was positive before becomes negative now; what appeared straight forward of execution and sure in its results, now becomes unsure and the method more circuitous. Hence the indecision and sometmies a failure to proceed at all. Probably no (worth while project but has had its well-laid plans disrupted; no planner but has had his clever schemes rendered worthless by unfore­ seen circumstance. But no planner worth his salt, and no propect worth the planner’s zeal, has ever succumbed because of setbacks. Frustrations there may be. They are inevitable in this imperfect world, but if the game’s worth the candle, the hurdles will be met and conquered, as Everest was conquered, not by the first comers, perhaps, but eventually by those who have been undismayed by others’ failures; by those who have counted the cost and know the hazards and are determined that no frustration shall prevent them from ultim­ ately reaching the goal.—Eveline A.

LOOKING BACK In the Files of The Ingersoll Tribune Ingersoll - Ontario 20 YEARS AGO January 18, 1934 The Ingersoll Kiwanis Clubdance, the social highlight of theseason, was an outstanding suc­cess again this year. The musicof Freddie Wurker and his or­chestra, was enjoyed by the largecrowd. Guests were received byKiwanis president, Albert J. Ken­nedy and Mrs. Kenndy, Mr. andMrs. Fred H. Adams, Mr. and Mrs. Fred G. Rich and Mr. and Mrs. Alex. Yule. Kiwanian Her­bert Handley was in charge ofthe novelty dances. The ticketfor the lucky number dance wasdrawn by W. R.

Probably this is quite true. Certainly farm prices are already down and this must have its effect throughout our whole econ­ omy. But before we sit back to mournfully await these tougher days, we might take a good look at ourselves. Maybe through the war years and the prosperous ones which have followed we have be­ come much too smug about our businesses. May­ be it is time to realize that business does not always fall into our laps; that customers do not always beg for the chance to buy our goods or use our services. In other words, maybe we will have to learn again to sell—and to stai*t by sell­ ing ourselves. Actually, Ingesroll, like most towns and smaller communities, has not gotten quite so far away from this idea as have the cities, cause personalities are involved. salesman know each other and no matter how good business may have been, friendships are too valu­ able to be lost because of lack of consideration during store or office hours. All tihe same, let’s take a good look at ourselves. Do we remember that cleaned sidewalks are a courtesy the customer has every right to expect? Do we bother to show the same interest in the small buyer as we do in the big? Are we concern­ ed with the attractiveness of our place of business? Do we make a point of welcoming strangers? Do we put ourselves out to give good and fast service? Once upon a time nearly every store had a chair or two where a weary customer was welcome to rest, or where he or she could pile extra parcels while making/ another purchase. How many of us offer such things today? There are many questions we‘might well ask our­ selves before we get out the crying towels - • and many answers that we might well study. It may be be- Customer and The old question of higher pay for members of Parliament is up again. If Parliament did what we think it should under our system there would be little opposition to the move. If it is to be a mere rubber stamp taxpayers may feel they arc paying too much now. Obviously adequate payment of members is nec­ essary if we expect reasonably good representation. Setting the pay scale too low would mean that only people of independent means, or those unable to earn elsewhere even the modest pay. provided would run for Parliament. If Parliamentarians are paid more the people would like to see something definite in return. After all the incentive principle should work in Parliament as well as anywhere else.—London Free Press.

Tractor Drivers With' all due respect to the Federation of Agri­ culture and its work, we cannot wholly agree with the stand taken on use of tractors on highways at the meeting last week in Toronto. After lengthy debate a resolution, asking that persons under 15 and those who had lost their driver’s licenses be prohibited from driving trac­ tors on the highways, was tabled and discussion dropped. Among points mentioned against the resolution, according to press reports, were; That it would work a hardship; lots of 14-year-olds were as capable of handling tractors as their fathers; that a farmer who had his license cancelled "after some little accident down at the corner’’ would undergo hardship if he couldn’t cross the road with his tractor; that farmers would be handicapped in teaching young sons to handle tractors, which might involve crossing roads w'here farms are div­ ided by thoroughfares. Against these points were mentioned: That "no one loses his license lightly in this province”; that "it isn’t right for a man who has lost his license for drunk driving to be able to drive his tractor into town and get drunk all over again.” Even though a resolution, the intent of which is clearly the safety of those driving the tractors themselves and the general public using the high­ ways, was not passed, we appeal to the common sense of all farmers to at least do their individual best to protect lives on the highways. Age limit for drivers’ licenses has now been raised to 16 years in Ontario. This came after 1 careful study and because the accident frequency i in lower age groups showed that many youngsters D.D.G.P.

During 1953 our Company has shared in the continuing pr-.»pcrily of Canada. Our total volume of buzinr-* hr- recorded r gain. It is interesting to note That in the last twelve sears. ll.«- volume of our assets under administration has doubled, significant evidence of the quality of the Company's service. Trustee Service f»r every Estate While our assets under administration now amount to more than $100,000,000, it is as well to state that we do not place too great an enqihasii- on size alone. Growth in volume a reward for service well performed, but it demands also that such standard of sen ice must be maintained over an ever increasing number of accounts. Furthermore, when it comes to the matter of the *ize of the individual estate or trust, we would not like it to be thought that an estate or trust is too small (or us to handle. I hope it may be true always, as it is now. that no matter how large our Company may grow its services will still be available to all persona who desire the ad vantages of corporate trusteeship, be their affair* great or small. .

The rakish sports car styling of Buick’s two-door Super Riviera sedan makes it a sure-fire beauty winner for 1954. Modelled after Buick’s famed Skylark sports car, it features the new panoramic windshield, a cut-down door belt line, full rear­ wheel cut-out and a refined sweepspear molding. The Super Riviera is mounted on a 127-inch wheel­ base and is powered by a 182-horsepower V-8 engine when equipped with Twin-Turbine Dynaflow.

Thatwas in marked contrast to the lad occa*- ion that a Canadian fought for the isms title. The surroundings for the Savoie-Carter fight were lux­ urious; the match had legal status. But Harry Gilmore of To­ronto had to battle the great Jack McAuliffe for the lightweight crown in 1887 in the furtive secrecy of a Lawrence, Mass, blacksmith shop, before 64 spectators. Boxing then was outside the pale of the law. Participantsand spectators risked arrest and prosecution. Details of thearrangements for the match were guarded so carefully thatonly three trusted sports writers were admitted. An enter­prising fourth writer gained admission by posing as a car­penter. In • hall directly above the bhck»m»th shop, a SalvationArmy Group was holding a prayer-meeting, it* member* quiteunaware of what was happening below. A* the two »orely bruised scrapper* went into the twentieth round, they couldhear the voice* singing “Hold the Fort.” McAuliffe brokeaway, backed toward the ropes, and, half-turning hi* head,called to his second, non-pareil Jack Dempsey: "They ain’thaving half a* hard a time holding the fort up there, as I amdown here!” McAuliffe won bv K.O. in the 26th round. Soon after thematch, it was learned that the sheriff was in search of the par­ ticipants. The lightweight champion and his friends werebundled into a sleigh and driven over deserted, snow-coveredcountry roads to a nearby town, Lowell, McAuliffe presented such a battered appearance that a scandalized hotel clerksternly refused to accommodate the party. How very different from the title bouts of today, thatdraw thousand* of fans, are broadcast and televised all over the continent, with champion* richly rewarded!

The instant you see these 1954 Buicks, you’ll know that some­ thing sensational has happened in automobile styling. Here is vastly more than the usual model changeover. Here is vastly more than could be done just by warming over what Buick had before. Here is something accomplished by going far beyond artful face-lifting. Here is that rarity of rarities—a completely new line of automobiles. But Buick didn’t stop with the bolder,, fresher, swifter-lined beauty you see in raised and lengthened fender sweep—in the huge and back-swept expanse of windshield—in the lowered roof­ line—in the host of extra glamor features of exterior modernity. They upped all horsepowers to the highest in Buick history. They engineered a new V8 for the low-priced SPECIAL, so that nqw the entire Buick line has Buick’s famous V8 engine — and in the process came up with new Power-Head Pistons that boost gasoline mileage in every engine. They brought to market a sparkling newcomer with a famous name, the Buick CENTURY—a car with phenomenal horsepower for its weight and price—a car with more pure thrill per dollar than any Buick ever built. And they did all this without change of the price structure which, for years, has made Buick the most popular car at its price in the world. We invite you to come in and inspect these great l»raiities, these great performers, these great buys. Then you’ll see why - previewers are already saying, "Buick’s the beautiful buy!"

Margaret Baigent, convenor for|the meeting, followed in her wor­ship service the theme of citizen­ ship. Mrs. Allan Hogg, the guest speaker, used as her topic, “Doors” • She stated the open and closeddoors and the keys thereof inspireseach type of person to imagine what lies beyond. Famous men like Columbus and Edison opened doors to mankind. The new yearopens a door revealing, as timepasses, what lies ahead. By usingseveral parables she illustrated that the door of opportunity is, in itself, one of the greatest. It is capable of opening the door of eternal life. The keys of each doorare found on the road to Calvaryand only the hand of God is cap-j ' able of opening the right door of life.

FEDERATION MEETING Tlie highlight of Oxford Feder­ation activities for last week wasthe annual meeting of the Ox­ford Federation of Agriculturewhich was held in the RecreationHall, Woodstock Fair Grounds,Thursday afternoon, beginningwith a turkey luncheon providedby the ladies of Currie UnitedChurch. Guest speaker was Mr.' S.C. Barry, Chief of the Livestockand Livestock Products Division of the Marketing Service of theDominion Department of Agricul­ ture. Mr. Barry, who was intro­ duced by Mr. F. E. Ellis, Presi­ dent of the Oxford Federation of Agriculture, analysed the chang­ ing position of Canadian agricul­ ture in relation to Canada’s tre­ mendous industrial development and predicted that our population by 1961 will have reached a level requiring more than our current production of our livestock pro­ducts; but coupled with this pre­diction, the suggestion that there might also be some increase in the volume of our production, TELEPHONE PROBLEMS A highlight of the discussion FLYING TIME from Montreal to Vancouver will be re­duced by two hours on Trans-Canada Air Lines routes when Super Constellation aircraft will be added to thecompany’s domestic fleet next autumn. The new planeswill carry 63 passengers at better than 300 miles an hourand will allow a total elapsed flying time of 11 hours five minutes between Montreal and Vancouver. Seats will bein two double rows and a lounge area will be included inthe Dreyfus-designed cabin. Two daily flights in each di­rection will be operated by the new aircraft in addition tostandard North Star service and North Star Tourist Try to Understand “Difficult” Oldsters The moods and tantrums ofvery old people are really not “diff­ icult” to live with if one makes an effort to understand their causes. This was the subject of a recentarticle by John E. Eichenlaub, M.D. in “Today’s Health”, an off­icial publication of the American Medical Association. “A person is as old as his art­ eries,” Eichenlaub said. He pointedout that the signs of real old age' begin to show as the arteries thatI supply different parts of the brain begin to wear out. Increased “crot- chetiness” is the result of this de­ terioration, but one who under­stands old people will not be dis- immediate and simple emotions. Slight peeves become towering rages The "lump in the throat’’ of youth becomes a deluge of tears. But, ac­ cording to Eichenlaub, this changecan be welcomed by other under­standing members of the familywhen it is realized that "even an old timeworn joke or a momentary re­ minder of some pleasant memory will pull an oldster out the blues.” Trinidad Missions Program Theme of Zenda Auxiliary The regular meeting of the Zenda stands old people wm not be dis- Evening Auxiliary was held at the turbed by occasional outbursts of jhome °f •**rs< Floyd Swance with crothetiness.

Saturday Morning At 11.30 o’clock on the Ingersoll Request \ Show of resolutions was the raising ofan acute West Zorra problem. While the local telephone systemwas under the control of a small­ er local company, the practice had prevailed of one long ring being the fire alarm signal and the switch board being cleared so that all possible help might be summoned at once to the scene of a fire. Now under Bell Tele­ phone rules such use of the tele­ phones is prohobited. The Feder­ ation of Agriculture clearly ex­ pressed its support for the resi­ dents of the Embro area in theirefforts to restore the availability of rural telephone lines for the practical summoning of assist­ ance in the case of fire. Other resolutions commended the local press and radio, ex­ pressed fears the current agricul­ tural depression might spread toour whole economy, asked a more complete impartial policy re theuquisition of farm lands by gov­ ernment agencies for building projects and highway construct­ion. etc.Officers for 1954 were elected as follows:Past president, F.

WANTED—more older people totake an active—i.e., a working partin Ingersoll’s Little Theatre. Act­ing is not at all a strictly youngperson’s game. ‘ On the contrary, most “stars” of both stage and screen are well Into what is drably called “middle ago”. To be a truly great actor or actress, it takes, ap­parently, some experience gainedon that stage called “Hfe". Also,a good many of the meaty parts in today's plays are supposed to be for older people. Thus far, the ILT has had to steer clear of those plays—us the “The Great George Ardey" for instance — or placeyounger persons in these roles. In“Before the Party”, as an example,Kitty Heenan and Don Young, neither of whom have passed the quarter century mark, are both playing 50-year-old people! Theyare doing very well, too, their di­rector states," bot Lola Cook andher assistants are going to have aproblem when they prepare to “age" Kitty and Don 25 years.

There will always be some small tax that our bodies must pay forthe priviledge of living in this bois­terous age. We seem to be alwaysunder tension even about trivialmatters. We indulge in compulsive activity, and when we are asked to tell why we do so we find no real reason for pushing and beingpushed. Some of our feverish en­ergy, we suspect wryly, is merelyan escape from being quiet.“Stress" is a word frequentlyused by medical people to cover the conditions—external or internal, physical or emotional—that are im- that afflict mankind.A sickness survey was made inCanada from the autumn of 1950 tothe autumn of 1951, results of which were published recently by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. Out of an estimated 4’4 millionfamily units, there were 621,000which spent nothing for medical,;dental, hospital or any other sort,of health care during that periodwhile 757.000 spent less than $20. | Beyond that sum the figures were: ’ between $20 and $49 .... 938,000 i$50 and $99 .... 994,000$100 and $199 .... 8.39,0001 $200 and $499 .... 343,0001over $500 .... 63,0001As will be seen, family units spen­ ding $100 or more in the year made up 27.4 per cent of all family units in Canada.While the cost of repairing and maintaining health may be high,the price we pay for neglect isheavy.

Costs Must Be Competitive With Foreign Producers* Says President Flexibility needed to meet new conditions. ‘Time ripe for dollar countries to show good faith by reducing trade barriers and red tape as aid to Britain in making pound convertible.” The tendency to become a high-cost economy in which natural andartificial barriers prevent Canada from achieving the degree of flexi­ bility and mobility required fororderly adjustment was the maintheme of the address of JamesMuir, President, at the AnnualGeneral Meeting of Shareholders of The Royal Bank of Canada. In­ creased flexibility is needed, he maintained, if Canada is to makethose price adjustments necessaryto maintain stability and prosperity at home, and insure a competitive position in world markets. Canada, he declared, should also further inevery possible way the movementtowards a world of liberalized trade;and convertible currencies. j “A thriving export trade," said Mr. Muir, “is a means not only ofpaying for imports, but of securing,through quantity production, lowercosts for Canadian goods whetherthese are exported or consumed at home. Canada can hope to maintain her standard of living only if shekeeps her costs completely competi­tive with those of producers abroad. HIGH COST ECONOMY “Costs and prices in the Canadian economy tend to be insulated in two ways: first, there are businesstaxes, Sales taxes, excise taxes, andcustoms duties which, because theyare largely at the manufacturer’slevel, are embedded in the cost base. Second,'there are certain “invisible insulators”, whose existence is nonethe less evident, which make someCanadian prices even higher rela­tive to foreign prices than the dis­ parity warranted by taxes, duty, and costs of transport. For ex­ ample, a certain British book thatretails in the United Kingdom for28s. (or at the current rate of ex­change $3.92) sells for $5.00 in New York and $7-50 in Toronto. A cer­ tain piece of British manufacturedequipment retailing at £41 in theUnited Kingdom (the equivalent ofabout $112 Canadian) brings $219in the United States and $275 inMontreal. An American-made ar­ ticle of household equipment sells for $77.50 in New England; but the price nf the same article in Mon­ treal is $149.00. , MONEY MARKET NEEDED “We must not ignore the fact that the attitude of our government is! generally one that favours freedom of international trade and ex­change. Pressure for special treat­ment, even when backed by evidenthardship on the part of some pro-jduccr groups, has been met by clear- i ly moderate concessions. Moreover, as I have already said, our mone­tary authority has adopted a policyappropriate to a nation that mustmaintain a competitive position inf< reign markets. Not the least im­ portant aspect of this policy has been the active encouragement byour central bank of a money marketin Canada. The Bank of Canada’sactivities and its co-operation with financial institutions in this respect have led to great improvement. But today something more is needed. It is time'how for the chartered banksand all other financial institutionsin Canada not only to support theefforts, of the central bank but idtake positive steps to increase theirnwn initiative and activity in thedevelopment of a Canadian money market. Such a market is not only a symbol of economic maturity andstrength but is in fact prerequisiteto continued progress in a country,like Canada, whose economic future depends on the expansion of world trade and investment. DOLLAR AREAS' ROLE “We seem nearer to convertibilitytoday than we have been since the imposition of wartime exchange control throughout most cf theworld; but the prerequisites to con­vertibility have not changed.“Since the end of the war the world’s hopes for convertibility have waxed and waned with Britian’s GOOD PRESS ABROADENCOURAGES COMPLACENCY “The means to our stability and prosperity involve an in­ creasingly mature attitude on our own part towards ouj futurerole in the society of nations.The amiable charge commonlylevelled by critics at home andabroad that, as a nation, Cana­dians tend to be unduly conven­ tional and complacent is not without foundation. These char­ acteristics may actually be fur­ther encouraged by the goodpress we continue to get abroad.Yet nothing could be more dan­ gerous than the bland assump­tion that as a people we areimpressing the world with thesuperiority of our character andaccomplishments. “More correctly, perhaps, oursituation is akin to that of anheiress who can never be surethat she is admired for herselfand not merely for her wealth. Our great wealth of natural be- sources is an inheritance which,like an individual’s inheritance,is evidence of good fortunerather than talent. We have still to prove that we can make the most of these natural re­ sources in building a greatnation, “It is true that foreign invest­ment is a relatively small partof Canada’s gross public and private investment; but it is precisely this foreign investmentthat has provided in good meas­ure the risk capital needed inresource development. This isthe usual course of events in a rapidly growing country. Never­ theless, until we prove ourselves, it is safer I think to proceed onthe unflattering assumption thatour popularity abroad is basednot so much on what we are ason what we have. *■> "Canada is .so dependent for prosperity on a healthy flow ofgoods, services, and investmentfunds across her borders thatthe mnintainance of favourableopinion abroad is an especiallyimportant consideration. “But. if we are not to disap­ point our friends abroad and even more important df we arenot to fail in achieving the eco­nomic development promised byour great natural resources, we must adopt those long-run meas­ ures that remove or reduce certain special barriers to oureconomic growth The most im­portant of these barriers is the’smallness of our population witha consequent narrowness of ournational market.” General Manager Reports Assets Over S2.8 Billions T. H. Atkinson, General Mana­ger, in reviewing the bank's 1953 report, stated that total assets of The Royal Bank of Canada havenow reached the imposing total of$2,895,856,189. This, he said, wasa new high mark in Canadian banking history, and is the highest ever reported by any Canadian bank.Deposits likewise had reachedrecord totals, said Mr. Atkinson.They now stand at $2,734,644,076,and increase of $207,133,639 overthe previous year. “It is encour­ aging to note,” said Mr. Atkinson, “that Canadians generally continue to save a reasonable proportion oftheir incomes. The increase in de­posits of the bank has been accom­panied by the expansion in thenumber of accounts on our books. We now conduct over 2,350,000 accounts, and it is of interest tonote that the number of depositaccounts in Canada has more thandoubled since 1942.Mr. Atkinson reported profits for the year had increased $1,506,051 over the previous year. After pro­viding for taxes, depreciation anddividends, the net profits for theyear amounted to $8,635,136. Thebank’s Reserve Fund now stands at $70,000,000. This, the President noted, was for the first time in thebank’s history, equivalent to twicethe bank’s Paid-up Capital. Thisyear’s increase in this fund, he said, had resulted from the transfer to you” letter from the secretary ofthe Longtown Sister Institute of England and accompanying the in­ teresting letter was a 1954 calendar of English scenery.
