The difference between man and the dust lies in his heaven -born passion for progress, the desire to push on, to grow, to improve, to enlarge his life, his know- ledge. and his potvcr. All life is growth and any form of decay is death. In tile right life aspiration lasts as long as res- piration. Ile is already dead who. Is satisfied, in whom there slit's no passi.ln for better, ampler things. That which yesterday seemed to the soul a palace, which is to•duy its house, would to- morrow prove its prison. Alan was matte to grow. All our past story tells us that. Read in the rocks or in the written page it is the s11l11e record of toil, pain, battle, weariness. and sor- row. victory, and brief joy -all but waves in the great tide that moves humanity on. Out of the depths have we crone, and no man any longer blushes at our lowly beginnings. rather do we rejoice al the strides made thus far. Neither dares any reverent one to predict how far we may go. All we know is That in us burns the eternal cloud by day and fire by night that leads on from Egypts of dull content through deserts of glow- ing promise. The story of each life is like a minia- lure of the story of all life. There is the same helpless beginning, the same irt- creasing passion for larger life, the soma growing discontent with things achieved. TO LIVE IS TO STi3IVE, to achieve and be dissatisfied, to become better and often seenf to be worse. The struggle to cast out old evil and to live (Hirer, sweeter, stronger, and more worth while lives goes on in all. Of all the objects of our pity none de- serve•% it more than those who are con- tent with themselves. No matter what growth a man may make in character, what progress tnword perfection, it will never afford hien satisfaction. The search for the peace of perfection can end oil In disappointment. To the soul there is no perfection. 1'o And its gent would be to die. \When a mean boasts of having reached the height of his ambition you will find he never contemplated any eminence greater than a beer keg. •)t Either one gels better emery day or to gels worse. He needs to feel the greatest alarm who thinks he has corse to the place where he can stand still. Measure your progress by your discontent with self. The fact that our Ideals seem farther off than ever before may but in- dicate how greatly the horizon 111(3 widened. True, there is a danger that we shall be content with our discontent, that we shall say, My apparent imperfec- tion but proves toy real progress. A man )oust measure himself not alone by his distance from the goal but by his steady strivings to renclt it. And, after all, the natural lite has little lime for any self-tneasurements. Some get no exercise save in climbing on and off the scales and standing under their spiritual measuring rods. They wonder why they do not grow. Not by inspection does the soul increase. Nor by repeated reviews of footprints long past, OF YESTEiRDAY:S FAILURES and mistakes. A roan ought to move et-) fast that the old tracks tire soon out of sight. The things that are set betole and not the things left behind must de- termine the things that are to be. If life is a race, it is not run before spectators; there are no grand stands here. The course winds amongst the commonplace duties of the day. Ile runs best who thinks least of the running arid most of doing the work of that mo- ment in the hest and noblest way. In each effort, in each fight against content with sloth, with self. witht mediocrity, lies the strength -giving struggle. Soul health comes through service. The do- ing of good is the best defense against the evil. Strength comes and evil is overcome by the gond that is undertaken. Weary in the fight, and feeying naught is gained, still press on. Life's value lies not its its victories so much as in its strife. 1l is this long, biller. oft disap- pointing battle ilint is making the man of you. The varrir's reward is not in some medal at the end -it is in muscle gained, in keener vision, stronger arra, larger heart, uplifted (lead. _ thoughts that look beyond the stars and catch glimpses of the glory to be, in burning desire for yet harder toil, sterner con- flicts, nobler prizes.

Mr. Gibson said :- Gentlemen, -Your Board of Direteors beg to express the pleasure they havo to being able to present the report to the shareholders. During the whole history of the bank, covering a period -of thirty- four years, this year would have been lite best and the most successful that we have ever enjoyed but for the unforlu- nate Incident in connection with our east end branch in this city. llnd that not occurred our net earnings would have been 10.30 per cent. on the capital, and notwithstanding that we had to slake provision for that loss the net earnings of the year are 15.42. After deducting 1110 loss of 390,000 et - ready referred to, our earnings for tie. year are cotisiderably great- er than the average for the past ten years. in the period front 1875 to 18$5 the rate of earnings ens 10.1; 1883 to 1895, 11.03; 1895 to 1905, 13.98. 1 invite the attention of the shareholders to the fact that every dollar earned by the bunk, except what tins been carried to first, has been paid to the shl.rehnlders, and that the misfortune of the pnst year in the east end brnnvh is likely to fall on the employes more heavily than upon the shnrehoblers, for, ns you knot', though the, bank has had under consider- ation, and it is still its Intention, to es- lahlish it pension system, such has not yet been begun. During the year new agencies have been opened at College and Ossington streets, Toronto; Toronto Junction. Car. berry'. Kenton and Killarney, Man.; Battleferd, S.isk,; Hud at Fernie, B. C. While we hate been somewhat conserv- alit•e in opening new branches we have been endeavoring to strengthen those w here we already have agencies. it may be said that some of the places %% hero tae have mooted) branches are small .ti the matter of population, but it tenet l;2 ren11•nhbered that they are in ltrut.ing cctilre., surrounded by rich country, find that the prospect for increased busi- ness in the future is very bright. Tle director -4. have gent faith in the coun- try. 1 nen Very glad to notice that the lennk is popular twilit the Invesllgnling public. Last year there were 615 share- lh'ib1.'rs on our bootie end This year the, number is 71:1, showing Ihnt the stock is cuing 1111') t1,1 hands of inVcslors, Al the smite time we have made 18 new friends for the flank. By the rep irl 1 have just road you will see That it is proposed to incrense the capital stock by $560,000. During the last six menthe a quarter of a mil• li•;n dyillnrs wee taken up al a premium of tis) par cent. Th' Sarni' carp w•tlt re 54,.351.39 776.635.33 43.430.72 68,465.13 $2R,SR6.018.76 J. TUJRNBULL, General Manager exercised in issuing the new stock only nl y as the business of the bank requires IL Now in regard to the incident in talo east end. Much comment and criticism have been indulged in. 1 had been away from the country at the tune, hitt 1 trent to say for the members of the board that they acted like men In the bast interests of the public, and of the bunk. The board determined to give the public the result as soon ns the re- sult could bo nscerinined. Our inspec- tion is as rigid as that of other banks. You can do something with the staff tf the bank when lt►e agent is honest, but when the agent is not honest, and adds forgery to his stealing, the hank 19 largely al his mercy. You have to trust tete people employed by you, and we have to depend on the fidelity of our agents. and while one man has proven false, the 309 other employes of the bank have not, and we have confidence 'n them. You may ::ay that the inspection is not rigid enough. i believe that you rnny have too much Inspection. If you let an agent think that Ile is being spied upon tie will probably sit and do no- thing and your business Is bound !o suffer. Now, in regard to quarterly dividends i need nit say much -they cannot cotne too often. Mr. John Proctor seconded the motion, which was carried unnnirnnusly. On motion of Mr. Samuel 13aiter, M.P., seconded by John A.
