The fifty-first annual general meet - ng of the 1\fulsons Bank Was held in thel3oard Room of the Institution on Mond.ty, October 15th. The General Manager, Mr, James Elliot, read the annual report of the )irectors as follows:— The Directors beg to submit the fol - wing report for the year ending on 9th September, 1906, The business of the Bank has been rospero•us and shows a steady growth. The profits of the year,, after pro- iding for bad and doubtful debts, mount to $434,668.31, which, togeth- r with $31,417.93 brought over from let year, have been appropriated: to ayment of four quarterly dividends f 24 per cent. each; to business taxes, 13,709.49; to Officers' Pension Fund, 10,000; and to expenditure on bank remises at branches $115,389,55, leavi- ng at credit of Profit and Loss, $26,- 87.23. Since our last meeting eight branch - s have been opened in Ontario and Quebec at points which seem to offer usiness advantages, or to protect our xisting interests, and at Edmonton, Alberta, it was thought advisable to stablish one in of the prospect f great increase of population and wealth in that district. All the Branches have been, as usu- al, carefully inspected. The officers of the hank baye faith- fully discharged their duties. Wm. MOLSON MAOPHERSON, President. A. comparison of the figures furnish- ed by the report with those of 1905, as serving to show that the sound busi- ness principles by which the manage- ment and directorate have always been actuated continue to achieve good results, will be worthy of note here: - 1905 1906 Deposit, public $20,254,661 $212,205.503 Discoun ts& loans 21,305,167 21,631,955 Net Profit fur yr. 399,271 4,34,665 In returning thanks of the share- holders to the General Manager and, Officers of the Bank, the vice-presid- ent expressed the opinion that the bank had the finest staff of officers thi.t could be found in any like instit- ution. At the last annual meeting he had made the statement that the dir- ectors bad bad nothing to complain of throughout the year, there not hav- ing been a singlefault on the part of the officers, and he thought he could say the same of the Tear just closed, There had not been anything serious against any officer during the year. Exports. Increase In a general way, it has been known that Canada's export trade for the year ending Tune 30 last was the hest in the history of the country, but the details, gathered from the fuller report of the Department of Trade and Commerce, give ground for even more jubilation over the record. In the first place,the increase over the previous year was larger than any increase in the past, whereas it might have been expected that as the volume of trade increases the yearly additions might not be so large. The record of total exports of home produce for the •past ten years shows: - 1897 1898 1899 1900. 1901 1902 1903 1904 1905 1906 Total Increase $1-23,632,540 $13,926.735 144,548,662 20,916.122 137,360,792 •7,187,870 .... 168.972,301 31, 611, 509 177,431.386 8,459,085 196, 019, 763 18.578, 377 214,401,674 17;381.911 198,414.439 *15,987,235 190,854,946 *,559393 235,483,956 44,629,020 *Decrease.

Landing on the point of his hoot the bone of one of his great toes was fractured and the cords strained. —J. W. Ortwein and Fred Smalla- combe, the onion kings. are each ship- ping a carload of dutch sets this week. Dr. F. J. Allis, representative of the Epworth Leagues of the Exeter dis- trict, who next Month sails for China, gave an interesting talk on mission work in the Methodist church on Sun- day evening, to which a large number were present. Dr- Allen is a young man with strength of character and purpose, and his simple recital of the obstacles which he has been forced to surmount in order to prepare himself for his life's work, was a revelation to many. As a representative of this district he will have the sympathy and prayers of all who are interested in missionary work. In the second place, this big increase follows two years of decreases, and, in the third place, the increase, while about half due to the larger western wheat crop, is actually the result of in- creases in all departments of exports, showing an uniform increase in all the other departments—an indication of steady development by all interests and sections of the country.

She was a daughter of the late Alex. Buchanan and was born in Usborne township in 1848. At 22 she married B. Smillie, who predeceased her 20 years. She leaves a family of three sons and four daughters, who have the sympathy of the entire vicinity.—The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Lamont deeply sympathize with them in the death f their little six -months -old babe. The little one died on Wednesday morning and on Friday the remains were laid to rest in the Bayfield cemetery, Rev. Doherty officiating. THANKSGIVING TEA.—The Ladies' Aid of the Methodist chinch have long bad the reputation of getting up good suppers, hut on Thursday evening last they outrivalled themselves, the spread being among the best ever made in Hensen. Despite the very inclement weather a large crowd turned out and for three long hours a bevy of active waiters were kept busy attending to the wants of the guests. The tables were laden with fowl, salads, delici- ous cakes and pies of every descrip tion and throughout the basement. everybody seemed apparently busy and happy. After justice had been done to the inner Haan the crowd ad- journed to the body of the church and for several hours listened to AO inter- esting program. Rev.

The Leading Commercial School CENTRAL Woodham The opening of the new Methodist church took place on Sunday last, when Rev. Fear of Exeter preached at both morning and evening services and Rev. Knowles of Fullerton in the afternoon. The sermons were most interesting and appi opriate and were listened to by very large congregations. In the eveningparticularly the church was filled to overflowing. The choir furnished music which was very pleas- ing and appropriate. The church is a fine structure, well furnished and in every way a credit to tbecongregetion; It cost in the neighbprhoodof $8000. Of this sum $5000 bad been paid or sub- scribed prior to Sunday. The collec- tions of Sunday were very liberal and it is hoped that after counting the coll- ection;; uf'last and the coming Sunday there will be little indebtedness on the church. The dedication services next Sunday are expected to be largely at- tended. • TEA MEETING.—The ten, meeting Tuesday evening attractedan immense crowd of people. The building was crowded to overflowing. An excellent tea was served and a program of music and addresses given. One of the Most interesting parts was Rev. Anderson's unique method of obtaining suhscrip- tions by a.kind of auctioneer arrange- ment. Over $1000 was raised in this manner. 11111-.7111M11111111149 No range can bake so well as the Imperial Ox- ford, because no other range has the Diffusive Oven Flue that draws in pure air constantly, heats it just as hot as you want it heated, and sends it. through 'every part of the whole oven every second. That flue, found only in this perfectrange, keeps that heated pure air — D R Y air—constantly moving DOWNWARD through the oven, over the baking food, and out up the chimney. When it enters the oven it's hot and dry ; when it leaves it, it's wet air, — cairies with it all the mois- ture, all the odors, but NONE of the juices of the food that's being baked.
