Mrs. Halliday and Mrs. Haselgrove will prepare and send the cheer boxes to shut-his. The motto, "The best gift is one that is tied with your heart strings," was given by Mrs. Bower, whn brought a wealth of thoughts. The first gift, Christ has alWays caused heart strings to be a great part of gift giving, As flowers are a vital part of Mrs, Bower's own life, her best gifts are flowers from her garden and they always have heart strings at- tached. Mrs. J. Ernest contributed a very beautiful solo "My Christmas Wish for You." Mrs, Campbell gave a read- ing suitable for the season. All joined in singing carols. The Institute was honoured by hav- ing as their speaker, Miss Laura Col- lar, missionary home on furlough from Africa. Among the many things she related` was her Christmas last year.

Climaxing a successful show season around the local fairs, three heifers from Belgrave Hereford Farms, own- ed by Jas. R. Coultes, were shown at the Royal following which they were sold In the. "Hereford Sale of the Stars," At 11 shows this past season, the show herd collected 49 firsts, 35 seconds and 21 thirds including Re- serve Grand Champion at the C. N. B. on their junior herd sire "Proud Domino." The cattle shown were all bred and raised on the farm with the except of the junior sire, having been sired by J. F.

Christmas Rush Interrupts Club This Meeting of the speaker's club in the Wingham High School night class periods is the last until January, 7th, announced Mr Hall, High School principal, as the evening session clos- ed. Bank Pr8ident Foresees Bright Future for Country Pointing out that there has been a tendency to penalize risk-taking and enterprise, Robert Rae, president of the Dominion Bank, last week that we may seriously retard Canada's rate of growth If we continue to discour- age effort and enterprise. "Canada is rich in resources," Mr. Rae said, "The long-term prospects are bright. Developments now under- way will greatly Increase the range and volume of materials which the world needs and must have and which Canada will be able to supply at fair and competitive prices. If risk-taking and enterprise are encouraged, if Canadians are given an incentive to invest, Canada will continue to move forward to greater achievements." He told the annual meeting of share- holders of the Bank that Canada's population had grown 3% in the past year and that "if this rate of popu- lation increase is maintained Canada will have nearly 30 million people by 1975—twice as many as at present." Commenting on the fact that the Canadian dollar has been a real source of embarrassment to export industries, he suggested that "we should regard as a healthy influence the recent lessening of the foreign exchange premium on our currency." Mr. Rae also pointed out that the inward and outward movements of capital this year nearly neutralize one another, leaving only a small net movement. He also said that while the flow of capital from abroad has made a substantial contribution to Canada's industrial expansion, "Canadians have subscribed from their own savings nearly four dollars for each dollar in- vested in Canada by non-residents." A. C. Ashforth, general manager, in commenting on the bank's statement, pointed out that Dominion and pro- vincial taxes absoroed 53% of net in- come, leaving only 47 per cent for shareholder's account. He also pointed out that the bank's profit margin is low, net profit in the fiscal year just closed being equivalent to an earning rate of 0.24% an average assets throughout the year whereas the rate in 1939 was 0.51%. Going behind the balance sheet fig. ures, Mr. Ashforth said "deposit dol- lars are active dollars. From coast to coast Dominion Bank deposit dollars are busy each day helping Canada to grow and creating new jobs for Can- adians." He went on to break down the bank's investments in terms of im- provements which make Canadian communities better places in which to live. In discussing the business outlook, he said: "During the first six months of 1953 business in Canada should be good but beyond that prospects are difficult to assess. A continually ris- ing level of business activity is un- likely. While it is only prudent to ex- pect occasional set-backs the long term outlook remains favourable." lill i BELGRAVE HEREFORDS kets, ebony, costumes, etc., which brought along.

McKinney, "is the basis of good delivery." He elaborated from person. al experiences and from detailed 06 ,-. study objectively and taken through a logical course. He repeated to the members that a class such as was be• ing conducted was built by criticism, and that any member giving a talk in class should be prepared above all to be receptive to criticism.
