Your ONTARIO HOSPITAL INSURANCE Plan Ontario Hospital Services Commission Toronto 7, Ontario John Tremblay, salesman, got a Scotia Plan Loan—$400— in 60 minutes. John Tremblay needed $400 in a big hurry. As he was reading his newspaper one night he noticed a Bank of Nova Scotia advertisement. It made good sense to John so the next day he was at his nearest Scotiabranch. He met the manager—explained his problem—and after a few quick questions about his job, income and how much money he needed John Tremblay breathed a sigh of relief. IN 60 MINUTES John Tremblay knew he would have all the money he needed. Of course, this actual customer was not named John Tremblay—and not all Scotia Plan Loans take 60 minutes— the time varies with the circumstances. But there are more and more people with all kinds of names and jobs coming to The Bank of Nova Scotia to have their money problems solved—quickly. Why don't you? A SCOTIA PLAN LOAN is one of the best—most practical ways for you to consolidate your debts. Your loan is life-insured at no extra cost. You get speedy service. You get the other advan- tage of dealing with the interested Scotiabank people. So talk over your money problem—whatever it is—debt consolidation—a new car—with the people at your nearest Scotiabranch. They're ready and waiting to help you. How much money do you need? BANK Plan now to get all those jobs done this winter. Things like having the lawnmower fixed, and the screens mended; having the car tuned up and outboard motor checked; having the drapes cleaned and the rugs shampooed; having the furniture re-upholstered and the electrical appliances repaired; hay- ing all those repair and renovation jobs done which can call for a long wait come Spring, but which can be handled quickly, efficiently and easily during the winter season.

JOHN LONEY, MP, Bruce Exeter Progressive Convervative Association Donnelly tombstone dispute is settled Local man to attend zone recreation meet A daughter of one of the famed Donnelly brothers will assume responsibility for the family gravestone which was removed from the churchyard of St. Pat- rick's Roman Catholic Church in Bidduiph Township more than a year ago. F. G. Carter, legal officer for the Diocese of London, said It has been suggested that a poltergeist may be lurking in the William Street area making enough noise that it will wake people from a sound sleep. These rumours have been discounted to some extent because the noise is also heard in the daytime as well. The problem was brought be- fore council for the second time Monday evening by councillor Mery Cudmore who has been in- vestigating the noise. A complaint from a William Street resident indicates there is a loud noise which occurs from time to time, lasting from 15 to 20 seconds which is becoming a nuisance. Works superintendent James Paisley has also investigated the noise but to date the cause is still to be explained. Mr. Paisley in- dicated the noise could be from a transformer at the pumping station but he has been unable to verify this. When the transform- er starts to hum Mr. Paisley has attempted to get to the resi- dent's house as quickly as pos- sible but the noise has always stopped before he arrived. Mr. an agreement to this effect had been concluded with Mrs. Nora. M. Lord, of Levack, near Sudbury. Mr. Carter said a copy of the document has been filed with the provincial archivist. Mrs. Lord's daughter-in-law, Mrs. Ethel Lord, said in Levack that no arrangement had yetbeen made to relocate the stone. The gravestone, a reminder of the feud which resulted in the murder of five Donnellys in their home Feb. 4, 1880, had brought thousands of visitor s to the graveyard. Church officials ordered its removal because of damage to the church and yard caused by curiosity seekers. Its where- abouts has not been disclosed. Mrs. Lord and three other re- latives of the Donnellys, who ask- ed not to be identified, protested the removal of the gravestone. Because of their objections, an offer to present the stone to the village of Lucan was withdrawn by the diocese. Mrs. Lord is the daughter of one of the seven Donnelly broth- ers, William. William Donnelly survived the 1880 massacre and died about 15 years later. Paisley told council he heard this noise himself about one year ago thus substantiating the com- plaint of the resident. Councillor Cudmore has still to hear the noise although he ad- mits he is convinced it is real. On one occasion he spent an hour at the house waiting for it and on another occasion he spent an hour and a half without avail. It was suggested that the noise might be coming from the main water line running to Canadian Canners past this property but this was discounted when it was discovered that the noise has also been heard during off seasons. Council is still at a loss as to what to do in regard to the com- plaint but the resident has a sug- gestion. He would allow council to stay at the house overnight until they heard the noise for them- selves. Apparently the noise is most commonly heard in the evening. There were no volun- teers to this suggestion but in- vestigations will continue. "Before I call my first witness, Your Honor, I'd like to say how handsome you look." Will collect for UNICEF Once again children from the Exeter public school will be col- lecting money for UNICEF when they visit homes in the area this Hallowe'en, Knocking at the door will be ghostly or fantastic fig- ures, costumed, wearing mo- ther's high heels, false faces, funny noses and carrying the U N ICE F Hallowe'en collection box. The traditional treats given the youngsters are taken with gay abandon. But to the fun has been added the joy of sharing Canadian good fortune, UNICEF (United Nations Chil- dren's Fund) monies collected at Hallowe'en go to the Interna- tional UNICEF budget. Funds are used to provide food, finance wel- fare clinics, equip hospitals and schools, fight the enemies of helpless children — hunger, dis- ease and ignorance. Hallowe'en in Canada is not only a night for fun and frolic but also an occasion for sharing Canadian good fortune with those who have so little. The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) is the bearer of good tidings, the dispenser of friend- ship, the helping hand freely offered and gratefully received.
