To Our Correspondents,

In giving us good weekly budgets of
news of their districts. However,
itfregn.elltlyhnppens thatinsome cases
rsve are forced for various reasons to
stroke out some of the items sent.
Some items are not sufficiently inter-
esting. For instance, it is not` of in-
terest to all to know that a certain
yo wog man spent Sunday evening at a
certain home. This is a case which in-

ported as a 'natter of news at all, hilt
simply as a "drive." pen again items

Sovereii; n Bank Changes,
g
We are pleased to hear that Mr. E.
W. Horne, who has been accountant
f :in the Sovereign Bank here for nearly
te.Z-,ee years has been promoted to the
Branch of that insitution at 11tilverton
as it is a well-deserved promotion, al-
though it is a matter of regret to the
• eople of Exeter :and vicinity that he
is leaving here. Since he has had
charge of the branch here the business
has greatly iaereased,-the staff being
three when he came and now eight,
,and this increase in the business has
been toa large extent due to his efforts,
ss he is an aggressive official and bas
.,::iii Arieliand favorably known.bynot
only the people cif Exeter but by the
farmers throughout the district, with
whom he was deservedly popular.
The staff of the bank here and the
manager regret his departure, and, as
the manager here has charge of the
branches at Crediton, Dashwood and
Zurich, the Exeter branch has been
largely managed by Mr. Horne. He
has had good experience in banking,
having been in the service of the Can-
adian Bank of Commerce for a num-
ber of years, during which time he
was in a number of their important
branches in Ontario. Mr. Horne is
twenty-six years of age and therefore
a young man to be elevated to the
managerial ranks of this important
monetary institution. He has attain-
ed the promotion, however, by hard
work, good ability, close application,
and a general aptitude for the busi-
ness. Mr. Horne acted as Treasurer
of the Stephen & Usborne Agricult-
ural Society during 1905 and took an..
active interest in the affairs of the
society and the conduct of his depart-
ment. Milverton is a thriving little
town where the bank has built up a
good business and has a staff of seven
men. He will feel at home there as
he was brought up and educated in
Stratford, and was accountant . at
Milverton for some months previous to
coming here. Mr. J. L. Scott of Zur-
ich takes the position of accountant
here. Mr. Scott is a young man of
good attainments and comes highly
recommended both as a citizen and as
a man of banking ability. We extend
to him the glad hand of welcome.
