This program p!o seutvi students with the opportunity toget out into the workreand Itoin "hands-on" experiance deride whether or not they want to dedicate the rest of their lives to a particular caxeen Each morning, I attend regular classes at school and in the after- noon, I work at the Toronto-Domin- on Bank in Winghane 1 have learned an incredible amount of information about bank- ing already and I ant sure that I will learn a great deal more in the months ahead. At first, it seemed peculiar being on 'the other side" of the coimter, but it didn't take long until I felt comfortable in my new surround- ings. The many transactions that take place at the bank seemed extremely complicated and confus- ing for the first few days. However, I quicldy became familiar with the transactions and most became rou- tine with practice. Already, I have been taught to enter transactions into the terminal as customers come into the bank, update passbooks, find the exchange rates on various curren- cies, do transfers, do remittances, encode cheques, print cheques, file, help balance throughout the day and at the end of the day, fill out the various slips for the customers and cash Canada Savings Bond. Last year, when the option of participating in the cooperative education program was introduced to me, I jumped at the opportunity because I knew it would be an extremely valuable elperlirnWI'' j. an positive I made a wise decision and I have definitely benefitted from this program. I will have a very good knowledge of banking by the end of the year, judging from the amount of information I already have gathered! Canada Post elves at work Postal employees, as well as Canada Post retirees in hundreds of post Offices large and small across Southwestern Ofitaiicreare doting much of their spare time to an annual labor of love — helping a certain old fellow at the North Pole with his Christmas correspondence Since 1982, Canada Post has helped Santa Claus answer nearly five million letters from children across Canada and around the world. Replies have been sent out on behalf of Santa in English and French, plus a dozen other lan- guages and braille. More than 72,000 letters were answered in Southwestern Ontario last year by over 800 volunteers. This year the corporation's Her- itage Club — a group of retired Canada Post employees, as well as employees with 25 years' service or more — will also be taking the time to help Santa ensure children receive replies to their letters. For their part, children are asked to write Santa as follows: Santa Claus, North Pole, Canada HOH OHO. Children also are asked to ensure they include their name and return address, along with their postal code. • For more information, call the local post office and ask for the Santa letter program coordinator or contact Tom Creech, divisional coordinator in London at 645-5050, ext. 151. 1Pre-Christmas Specials 25 oclf Men's Suits e THE WORLD OF BANKING has been opened to cooperative education student Denise Wilkins through her "hands-on" training at the Toronto -Dominion Bank in Wmghain. Bank employees, such as Amanda Wakfer, have been terrific in helping Ms. Wilkins dur- ing her first months at the bank. I really enjoy working with the public and this job allows me to do just that! I would encourage other students to get involved in this pro- gram, because it is an excellent opportunity. In closing, I would like to take this opportunity to thank Mn Inwood and all of the staff at the Toronto -Dominion Bank for making my experience with cooperative education so wonderful. Those staff members include: Mrs. .W..Leibold (my supervisor), Coupland, Mr. L Lane, Mrs. R. Haines, Mr. L Walker, Mri. A. O'Krafka, Mrs. A. Hogg, Mrs. C. Brown, Mrs. L. Malhiot, Hamilton, Mrs. C.

Also, I thank them for answering my questions, always with a wonderful ser se of hujnor and patience. I will always treasure my experidnce.
