How Will You Use Your
Compulsory Savings ? '
When you receive the cheque
for your refundable taxes, why
not look on it as something more
than just a pleasant windfall?
This is money saved long ago,
—money which thoughtful folk
plan to add their other sav
ings. They realize that frittering
it away would be a backward
step in their struggle for the
things they want most.
Join these progressive people
by depositing your cheque in
your Bank of Montreal savings
account. If you haven’t started
a B of M account yet, Jim Hen
dry, local branch manager, in
vites you to do so today, so
that it will be ready to receive
that refund cheque. (adv’t)

Fairfield Farm Forum
The Fairfield Farm Forum
met at the home of Mr. George
Hep burn with twenty-five in
attendance. The subject for dis-
cussipn was “Many Happy Re
turns” and concerned the dif
ficulties the farmer encounters
in making his income tax re
turns. The questions are often
complicated,, requiring the ad
vice of a lawyer, and often the
farmer does not keep an ade
quate record of his business,
But whether he has a taxable
income or not, if he fills out
his returns he has a record,
especially when the returns are
made over a four or five year
period, and tax paid only once
in that periqd if income
sufficient. Games were
and lunch served. T h
meeting will be held
home of Reg. Hodgson.'
