It pays high interest, and the interest is then added to your savings, So every time your interest is calculated, it's on your accumulated savings Oa the ac- cumulated interest you've already earned. So it really begins to pile up. Another thing a Bonus Savings Account is meant strictly for saving - so you can't write cheques, You can get your money out whenever you need to, but because you can't write cheques, there's not the same tempta- tion to nibble away at your savings: So if you've got something special to save for . a now home, a car, a trip . . or you'd like to put away a 'nest egg', a Royal Bank Bonus Savings Account makes a lot of sense. Because it makes saving a lot easier. And a lot faster. Come on in and talk it over."

With the coming of T,V., the picture show business took a nose-dive. Theatre after theatre closed. There was fear expressed in Hollywood that "show-biz" was over. The years have passed and very'slowly at first and more rapidly now the 'flicks" are coining back, particularly the drive-ins, From time to time a program comes to hand and very rarely , something appeals to me and even more rarely, because I have two disappointed in shows so often, I invite my wife to go to a "show". "Love Story" and its companion, "Paint Your Wagon", was highly recommended, so we broke down and my wife and I went to the drive-in along with a large number of young peeple. It was a bit of a shock at the Wicket when I remembered taking my girl-friend to the show for 50 cents instead of $3.50, However, I can't complain. The years have brought a very real "capital gain". Now for the show. "Paint Your Wagon" was first and was a comedy. It seemed to be a satire on the Mormon practice of polygamy, but made a switch from the idea of having two wives to having two husbands, This, of course, created some good humour. Along with this, we got some ideas about the modern concept of "free-love" in a setting of "gold-rush" days. The madness for gold was exploited and its futility shown and in the end sanity overcame lust and the wicked city was destroyed, It was amusing and just maybe got some basic truths through to our young people, though. I can't say that I altogether approve of the wrapping. The second, "Love Story' ; would be classed as a "tragedy". Son of very wealthy father meets middle class girl of his heart's desire. He is in college and is threatened with being cut off if he doesn't conform to his father's wishes. True love wins. They marry, the young wife works, and the young husband studies and works as well and finally graduates, He secures a good job and is on his way up the ladder. The young wife has an incurable sickness and shortly dies. It had a lesson for young and old. Parents can't live their children's lives. Young people can make their own way if they are sincere and dedicated. Money isn't the greatest thing in this life. On the other hand, there are some things over which we have no control. We all must learn to meet adversity with trust and courage. In spite of the best we may do, things can go wrong. In the unreal world in which so many of our young people are growing up it is good that once in a while they are reminded of reality. On the surface the shows were okay, but why the profanity? In "Paint Your Wagon" depicting the miners of the "gold-rush" days, the profanity could be justified if we accept the impression generally given of these people and times, but why was it even more evident in "Love Story"? Here we have well educated young people from respectable homes. It seemed so out of place, so forced, that I couldn't help wondering why? .We pride ourselves in being literate, but this show raised some question about my literacy. Seems to me we are expending a tremendous effort in teaching our children a second language and now we are about to force a third on them, "French". Owing to the heavy rain and born and a picture of your the wet condition of the birthplace if possible."
