Taxes Exceed Net Earnings
After providing for a tax bill
of almost six million dollars —
$900,000 more than for 1951—the
bank reports net earnings of
$5,668,778 from the operation of
its nearly 600 branches. After
payments to shareholders there
was a balance in profit and loss
account of $2,700,000 and from
this the bank made a transfer to
reserve fund of two million dol-
lars. This fund now stands at
$53,000,000.
To the Electors of Clinton;
I wish to solicit your vote and influence
for my election as
Councillor for 1953

SHOWS BUSINESS
INCRASIE.I. IN 1952
Reflecting the swift rate of
Canada's industrial growth, the
Bank of Montreal's 135th annual .
statement, just PIlblished, features
record figures for deposits, loans
and total resources. Most notable
of these are deposits of $2,147,-
900,000—the highest total in the
H. of M's long history. These de-
posits comprise the funds of more
than 1,900,000 customers from
coast to coast,
"Fully half these deposits are
made up of the savings of private
citizens, was the comment which
William H. Robinson, manager
of the Clinton branch, made in a
message issued today by the B of
M in reviewing for its customers
the highlights of its annual state-
ment.
The report, which is for the
year ended October 31, shows an
+4 1- 4-*
increase in loans of -$65,811,000
over the 1951 figure. This brings
total loans Up to the highest re-
cord in the bank's history—$.71*
179,846. These loans, the message
from the manager states, were
made ". . . to business and in-
dustrial enterprises for production
of every kind—to farmers, fisher-
men, oil men, miners, lumbermen
and ranchers—to eitizens of every
calling, and to provincial and
municipal governments and school
districts."
Strong Liquid.Position
Nearly a billion dollars of the
bank's assets are in high grade
government. bonds and other pub-
lic securities which have a ready
market. In referring to these
holdings, the manager's report
notes that "this money helps to
finance government projects for
the betterment of Canada and the
welfare of her people," Amount-
ing to $987,000,000, these holdings
represent the greater portion of
the bank's quickly available as-

WW Goodwill Club
Holds Meeting
The Goodwill Club of Wesley-
Willis United Church held its
Thankoffering meeting in the
church hall on Tuesday evening,
November 11. The president, Miss
W. O'Neil, was in charge, with
Mrs. Inns at the piano. The meet-
ing opened by singing a hymn fel
lowed by an invocation by the
president and the Lord's Prayer in
unison,
The Bible reading and devotion-
al talk on "Thankfulness" were
given by Mrs. Innes, followed by
prayer by Miss Stone.

was sung by Mrs. D, Andrews,
accompanied by Mrs. Vincent. The
treasurer's report wSS given by
Miss L, Walkinshaw and the sec-
retary's report by Mrs. Steepe.

Mrs. George Jefferson was the
speaker for the evening and gave
a most interesting Armistice Day

war destroys the savings of yest-
erday; consumes the wealth of to-
(ley; mortgages the prosperity of
tomorrow." She concluded her
talk with a poem, "Youth Prays
for Peace."
Mrs, Andrews favoured with an-
other solo, "Teach Me to• Pray"
and Mrs. Vincent played a„medley
of patriotic instrumentals.' These
musical numbers were all much
enjoyed. A hymn followed by the
