THURSDAY, Oct. 24, 190'1 Remarkable Year of Molsons Bank Net Profits Showed increase of Over One Hundred Thousand Compared With Last Year. The Molsons Bank has just closed a remarkable year, the net profits easily crossing the half trillion mark, and showing an increase of $110,000 over the previous year. The net profits, af- ter making all provision for had and doubtful debts, amounted to $514,038, compared with $431,608 in the prev- ious year. The management of the Molsons Bank has always been noted for fol• lowing very conservative banking lines and this has undoubtedly resulted its there being few bad debts for which allowance has had to be made. The Profit and Loss account is as fol- lows: Balance at. credit of Profit and Loss account on 29th Sept., 1906 $ 26,987.23 Net profits for the year, af- ter deducting expenses of maanagement,reaervation for interest accrued on deposits, exchange, and provision for had and doubtful debts. 511,038.00 Appropriated ns follows: 105th Div. at hate of 10 p. e.

PRESENTATION.- Fully fifty persons met at the residence of S:uu. Davis on Friday evening to bid farewell to Miss Ida Abbott. prior to her departure for Crystal City. Rev. \V. H. Butt, as master of ceremonies, called upon Dr. Orme, who delivered an appropriate address, expressing regret at Miss Ab- bott's contemplated removal and ap- preciation of her services in the choir of the church, and kindly wishes of her future. Miss Alla Hicks then stepped forward and presented Miss Abbott with a beautiful silver tea set, the gift of her many friends. Miss Abbott replied in at very feeling man- ner, thanking the friends for their kindness and good wishes. Several short speeches were made by a num- ber of the young people. after which coffee and cake were served. About the midnight hour the party broke up after singing "God be with you till we meet again." Dame rumor says Mies Abbott is soon to be married to one of Crystal City's young rueu. ANNIVERSARY SERVICES. -Sunday was anniversary day in the Methodist church here and by the request of the trustees, the pastor Rev. Butt preach- ed both morning and eivening. Large congregations greeted the preacher, especially in the evening, when the church was literally packed. The ser- vices were inspiring and helpful. The choir, tinder the leadership of Nelson Hicks, was in good form and rendered some fine anthems. At the evening service Miss Lily Elliott gave a solo in which her recent training showed to great. advantage. She has a full round voice with clear enunciation and pleas- ing manner which will make her a singer of considerable note, if she is spared and health does not fail her. Nelson Hicks also sang a bass solo with fine effect. Instead of the usual tea -meeting it was decided to ask for free-will offerings from the people. Rev. Butt appealed to (he congrega- tion, asking for $150 and when the giv- ings were totalled up at night it was found they had realized more than $185. It was a grand day for the church people. The trustees, pastor and friends generally are to he con- gratulated on the results and they wear a pleasant smile this week.
