BANK OF MONTREAL TAKES OVER .LOCAL BANK OF COMMERCE time. C. L. Stan- (Continued from Page 1) ed to the public in 1912. W. H. Col lins was the manager at the The staff was comprised of Whitby, James McKeracher, ley Fisher and Elmo Howey. One of the odd things in connec tion with the building is that the building in Exeter was intended for Seaforth. The Seaforth branch was built at the same time. It is quite a lot smaller than the Exeter branch. In some manner the two plans be came switched and the buildings started and it was not discovered until the work was well under way that the structure intended for Exe ter was being erected in Seaforth and the one for Seaforth was being put up here. For the first time in the long his tory of the village Exeter is to have only one bank. For many years the Molson’s Bank, with the la,te N. Dyer Hurdon as manager, conduct ed a branch in Exeter. It was the Molson’s Bank that erected the building now occupied by the Bank of Montreal. Previous to that the bank was situated in the building now occupied by R. N. Rowe. The late B. S. O'Neil operated a private bank until taken over by the Sover eign Bank. Transferring of the business from the present building to the Canadian Bank of Commerce offices will give the Bank of Montreal a more com modious office, including two tel ler’s cages. The Bank of Montreal for some time has felt the need for more space and tentative plans for enlargement had been under con sideration. An interesting which has adorned the Bank of Commerce and back to the last war • to Exeter as it is being office in Toronto. on it is: men of the Canadian Bank of Com merce who served in the Great War, 1914-1918”, and contains the names of the men from the Exetei* branch: “Sgt. H. V. Carling, Pte. A. V. For- tye, Pte. H. J. Fake, Dvr. R. Gillies, Pte, N. M. Hill, L.Cpl. W. Northcott.” While the loss of the Bank Commerce to Exeter is to be gretted the people of the town and district are still to be congratulat ed upon the fact that the service of Canada’s oldest and largest bank ing institution, remains with them and it would seem the viction that the high • banking service which to been enjoyed by under competitive banking condi tions will in no way be impaired by tile fact that this service will now rest with the Bank of Montreal.

The Exeter Fliers continued their winning streak when they mixed with 4he Goderich Pilots on the lo cal ice Tuesday evening, the score being 4 to 3, The winning goal was scored with only five minutes to go.

Harris has the reputation of being a good mixer and admits, when pres sed, that he is “interested in people, music and dramatics.” So we look forward to the continuance of the friendly tradition of the “Y”, so well established here by Jack, and we be lieve that our evening programmes will continue their present high level and perhaps develop along new lines. We extend a warm welcome to Har- . ris and we know that he is going to 1 dO' a real good job.

Exeter and district the telling is best done through the Times-AdvO- cate. For FROM - Q SERVICE FLYING TRAINING SCHOOL This week brings a sad parting to all the personnel of 'No. 9. Jack Wadland, our Y.M.C.A. supervisor, is ■leaving for overseas to work with the R.C.A.F. in Britain. He has been here since the station opened and he has made a very warm corner for himself in the hearts and affections Of everyone. No man has ever given himself more devotedly to his work of serving the men and women in uniform or spent more hours on the job. Morning, noon and night he has been at everyone’s service and every one has received equal consideration and help. “What I like about Jack,’' said one officer in the writer’s hear ing, “is that it doesn’t matter whether you are a newly joined AC2 or a Senior Officer, he treats you all alike.” The "Y” certainly did us proud When they sent Jack Wadland to Centralia And, as he goes, we want to express on behalf of all the Station (and, may we add, friends in the district -too) our grate ful thanks for all that he has done for us, our heartiest congratulations that he has been picked (and deser vedly so) for special responsibility overseas, and our very best wishes for every blessing and success in his new work. Our thoughts at this time also go to his wife, Betty Wadland. She has given Jack freely to- the work and now she faces the long separation of an overseas posting. May the day of victory, and so of reunion, not be long delayed for all the many thous ands who are quietly and courage ously making the same kind of sac rifice in this vast struggle for world freedom, In Jack’s place the Y.M.C.A. has sent us Harris ‘Weber as its new sup ervisor; Harris comes from not so NOTICES NOTICE Applications will be received by the undersigned up to Monday, Feb ruary 1, 1943, at 1 p.m, for the position as Assessor of the Town ship of Stephen.

On Wednesday we saw “This Gun for Hire” a thril ler featuring Alan Ladd and Veron ica Lake, and on Friday we had “How Green was My Valley” star ring Wjalter Pidgeon, Donald Crisp, and Roddy MacDowell. The schedule for these pictures between Stations assumes no hitch in transport facili ties and it was only by close cooper ation with the Clinton and Goderich Stations that we were able to get the later picture here at all. Even then it arrived an hour after the first show was scheduled to start, and we were only able to 'have one perfor mance. “Thirty-Nine Steps”, a Hitch cock production with Robert Donat and Madeleine Carroll, was due for showing on Monday, but at the time of writing it was anyone’s guess whether it would arrive bn time. « « * reports in run out of been sent the mark. This week the Station has felt the effects of the severe weather condit ions, together with the community around, though the wild some papers that we had food and everyone had home were very wide of For three days we had no mail or newspapers. On two days the ration trucks could not get to London and on two other days they had long ted ious journeys and had to be hauled in by tractor. However, we managed to get along all right, n0‘ one went hungry, and our Station activities on the ground carried on. Thus on Tuesday evening we held our regular weekly dance, though we had to do without the company of the girls from Exeter, as no bus could get through the blocked roads. On Thursday evening another dance was held to entertain the people on the Station, whom the weather had made C. B. These were both enjoy- The two hockey games against Seaforth and the inter-section doub leheader all had to be scrubbed last week. Neither players nor spectators could get to the rinks. We hope-for better luck this week, when three games are scheduled. On Tuesday the Exeter 'Fliers are playing God erich at Exeter; on Thursday they play Clinton at Clinton; while on Sat urday the game against Seaforth scheduled for last week will take place at Seaforth. In addition to these three Station team games, there is the double header in Exeter arena on Wednes day, when Eagles play the Gremlins and Exeter teams up against Spare Parts.
