We wonder if the parents realize how many of their family problems the little ones carry with them to school. Last week a little girl was walking along hand in hand with a member of the staff. Suddenly she sighed, “My mother's going to the doc­ tor today". “Oh! I’m sorry she’s not feeling well," sympathized the teacher. “Oh, she’s feeling alright, but we were supposed to get a baby at our house last month and it isn’t here yet so she’s going to go to see why the doctor didn’t bring it."

A visit to our future class­ rooms next door assures us that the coal gas and frigid tempera­ tures prevalent last week in the old school will soon be only a memory. (Scheduled school holi­ days are fine—the teacher can plan her work accordingly—-but interruptions such as occurred here last week are not the gala occasions they seem to be. Each grade has a specified course to cover and both teacher and pupil suffer when the continuity of the weekly programme is broken. Many headaches will disappear (and with the coal gas this is no figure of speech) when the old furnace breathes its last blue breath.

WHAT IS ?^tSonal Pl . 7 Personal Planning is more than mere budgeting . . . that, by itself, is dull. Personal Planning is a positive financial program for successful in­ dividual and family living — a pro­ gram for progressive and provident people — people who have ideas for their future and want to make them real. That’s why Personal Planning is so different. It is a plan that faces the fact that all of us must live on what we have — not on what we wish for. It also faces the fact that a budget­ plan should never choke the fun out of life. It shows you how to put yout­ sell on your own payroll, as well as the butcher, the baker and candlestick­ maker. It shows you how to build for tomorrow, while you enjoy today. Yes, and it shows you how to get the most out of life with what you earn. In Personal Planning, the important thing is: IT’S NOT HOW MUCH YOUR INCOME IS...IT’S HOW YOU USE IT. WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT Personal Planning Personal Planning was introduced on a test basis to visitors at the Canadian National Exhibition last autumn. Thousands of people responded to our invitation and asked for copies of "Personal Planning for Successful Home-makers.” "Up-to-date and practical for pres­ ent living conditions,” is what one visitor wrote us after reading the booklet. "I needed this advice very badly,” wrote another, "and you have already helped to straighten out a quarter of our personal problems.” ".Excellent pamphlet,” said a third. "My budget-plan will be organized within a month.” These comments, and many more like them, are in the Bank’s files at the Head Office in Montreal. 9 HOW TO GET THE MOST OUT OF YOUR MONEY... "Personal Planning” is a cheery little book that tells you — whatever your income — how to get yourself on a sound financial foundation ... how to get the most out of your money. Call in at your nearest B of M branch and ask for a copy. There’s no obligation ... except to yourself. ■■ • •••too © TO A MILLION CANADIANS V /1 r\ C. E.
