Don’t Sell Your Bonds
If You Need Quick Cash
Like hundreds of thousands of Canadians in recent years,
you probably have bought a nest-egg of bonds for your future.
But now you may need money to meet an emergency or oppor
tunity, and the question is whether to sell those bonds.
Jim Hendry, _ the Bank of Montreal’s branch manager at
Exeter, strongly advises against it. “Bonds represent money you’ve
already saved,” he says. “If your proposition is sound, you can
Keep ycl/r hest-egg intact by simply borrowing against your bonds
at the B of M, When you’ve repaid your loan in easy instalments,
yon 11 still have your savings in reserve.”
You’ll be in good company if you take Mr. Hendry’s advice.
Many thousands of people, he says, use their bonds to borrow at
the B of M every year. The entire cost of a loan against Govern-
’ment Bonds is exceedingly small, indeed, it is little more than the
interest you .receive on the bonds themselves. (advt.)

BEEF1«F ImW Ihmt I. A few years ago U remarkable
old lady, Elizabeth Haldane,
passed on in the north of Eng
land. She was born in April,
1825 and died in May, 1925. She
was the mother of Lord Haldane,
wh0 was for a time Chancellor
of .the Exchequer. The old lady
was remarkable, not only on ac
count of her great age, but be
cause in the closing years of her
life she wrote a book which was
a record of the hundred years
through which she had lived.
In that book Mrs. Haldane
wrote of the , changes of that'
century, 1825 - 19 25. It was a
period of great change. She spent
most of her life in Newcastle-on-
Tyne where George Stephenson
invented the first locomotive and
was busily engaged in improving
it when she was a girl. She could
recall the determined opposition
to the first ‘‘travelling engines.”
Later, she saw the introduc
tion of other methods of trans
portation; tricycles, bicycles,
motor oai*s and airplanes. It was
a century of progress and dis
covery. She was keenly interest
ed in radio which made its ap
pearance not long before her
death. Her mind was clear to
the end. The Archbishop of York,
who visited her often, said: “Old
age to her was not of increasing
weakness, but rather one of ever-
growing spiritual power,”
Lying on her back, for she
became bed-ridden towards the
epd, she surveyed the century
through which she had lived. In
her book she asked and answered
the question: what was the most
wonderful change she had seen

wrote: ‘‘I have known my boy

and blue from bruises inflicted
by the cane,‘while a school chum
lived for three days hiding in a
chimney, in fear of his master’s
treatment. ,A girl cousin of mine
was punished by being locked in
a barn and fed on bread and
water.” The Haldanes were quite
well-to-do people so we can only
guess at the treatment handed
out to less fortunate children.
She goes on to say that the
same severity was used in relig
ious training. It was a “wedge
of torture and an instrument of
cruelty. We were watched con
tinually and our actions
strued to mean what we had
never dreamed. At family wor

rather than to the Almighty.”

He asked her if she would like
to be “bluided.” She meekly
answered “yes”. He bound her
arm tightly and with very old
and crude instruments proceeded
to bleed her. After two unsuc
cessful attempts he finally suc

blood. She did recover but there
was no babying during convales
cence. It was not thought the
proper thing for young people to
use warm water so, although it
was a severe winter and water
froze in her room, she had to
break the ice and do her best.

modern life but there is an en

A recent survey showed the owners of self-
propelled combines in Western Canada to
be dividedTike this:
6 1.9 % ware owners of Massey-Harris
38.1 % were owners of other makes
This is a very significant fact. Farmers don’t
choose their machines by whim or fancy*
Such a high preference for Massey-Harris is
proof beyond doubt that Massey-Harris
combines give them the best all-round
performance . . . in fast harvesting, clean
thrashing, freedom from field delays, low
cost of operation.
If you were to visit the Massey-Harris
Combine factory and watch the long train-
loads of combines pulling out of the railway
siding, you would see something else that is
noteworthy. Many of these train-loads are
destined for United States points, because
Massey-Harris combines are as popular in
Kansas, Texas and the Dakotas as they are
in the Canadian West.
And if you observed further, you would
find many carloads destined for far-away
countries like Argentine, India, Turkey,
Tanganyika. All over the world, the
Massey-Harris self-propelled combine, is
known and recognized as the Piaster mach
ine for modern farmers. Wherever you
find modem agriculture, you find Massey-/
Harris combines in use and in demand.
