This young bank depositor recently
wrote to his bank manager:
¥ I made a goal of $1,000 for this year.
It is two years since I opened the account

Building up a bank account means work
and sacrifice. But Canadians know the
value of having savings handy in time
of opportunity or need: they maintain
million savings accounts in the
chartered banks—almost twice as many
as ten years ago. At the same time
bank staffs have almost doubled. That,
and higher wages, have increased bank
payrolls almost three times. *
More people use the banks, more people
work for the banks than ever before,.
