A recorded vote showed Reeve •turn to page 6 Bank wants students but doesn't accommodate them •from page 1 that you are seeking students' ac- counts, but considering the banking hours and no banking machine in Lucknow you are not accom- modating the students." Lynn Peck said her daughter had opened an account -through -the -local -branch, but as a college student she too can only access it through other points and not when she is home on weekends. Dewayne Greig, owner of the Mayfair Restaurant, said "I've become known as the 'small bank' next to the 'big bank'," referring to the number of , cheques he is cashing for people to avail themsel- vesof cash. Other main street businesses have found themselves in the same position, and on oc- casion some of these 'small bankers' have been stung with NSF cheques. Richard Askes, a member of the Chamber's advertising committee, expressed his dissatisfaction with the bank's explanation. "Our (Cha- mber's) objective' is to have a machine here by next summer, whether it is the Bank of Montreal's or not. As the es- tablished bank, you owe us," he said. President of the Chamber, Ben Hogervorst, backed Mr. Askes, with his remark, "It is time to put your best foot forward." An interested citizen added strength to the Chamber's quest for a banking machine when she pointed out that the hours and lack of a machine necessitate her banking out of town. "And, when I bank out of town, I shop out of town." Joanne Weber, co-owner of The Sewing Box, is one of many mer- chants who bank out of town. Recently while banking, she met six other people from within the vil- lage, in her bank, doing the sante. thing. How many more are travel- ling out of town? Reeve Stuart Reavie, while thanking .the bank for its 90 years Of service, pointed out that although officials may think agriculture is the main market area, tourism will be a large part of business in this area and thus a banking machine 'is important. Mr. Greig asked, "What do we have to ,do to get a banking machine?" Mr. Hopfner replied, "Get George and I on your side in the decision- making process." He went on to say it is an "investment decision." The bottom line was investing in Lucknow isn't a good business ' decision at this time, as far as the Bank of Montreal is concerned. At a later interview, Mr. Hoger- vorst said, "I appreciate the bank official stravelling this far to meet with us, but I am quite disappointed in the their non -committal position. We will aggressively pursue other avenues."
