If one bank cannot see it your way, or if you think you can get a better deal elsewhere, you're free to "shop around". Banks compete to serve the most diversified needs, no matter how specialized any of them may be ... personal, business, or farm loans, money transfers, collections �-- to name just a few. More than 95 out of 100 bank loan applications are decided "right in the field"—in the branches—by bank managers who take a personal interest in serving their customers' individual requirements. Going to your bank is not like having to deal with a state bureau—but that's how it would be under stale monopoly.

SHUT-IN'S DAY — ' SUNDAY, JUNE 5 The first Sunday of June will soon be at hand, .the day set aside particularly to encourage remem- brance of the sick and disabled. Rev. James M, Finlay of Toronto has written this : "Sick. To those who think of sickness in terms of the periodic headache or the seasonal indisposi- tion of a cold there is a whole world unknown to them.

There 1 remains for the shut-in the news- paper, the radio, the tiersonal visit ation—ibese three—and the greatest of these Is the personal visit. "The setting apart, therefore, of the first Sunday of .Tune. annually, by the Shut-InsDay Association, when the invitation to visit at least two folk who are sick is given to us, is of more than ordinary signific- ance. Not that one should ever feel he has discharged his full obligation by such observance one Sunday a year. It is but a token of our recognition and remembrance of the shut-in at all tines. • "Futhermore, let no one think that by making such visits we are conferring a favor upon those visit- ed. In very real sense just the opposite is true: they present us with a prilegs ; invariably they render us a service. There is no greater corrective for our distorted vision and false sense of values than to talk with one who has made and continues to make the skilful adjustment to the restraint and restriction that is the normal life of the shut-in. Anyyone who has had the close friendship of one of (these has experienced the enlarge - went of his own life. One comes to realize how feebly he exercises the full measure of health and • strength, full powers of body and mind which 'he posseses as cam- : pared with the amazing use that , others make of their limited capital of these resources. Truly they live "a large life in a small room." "In His Name who said; 'I was sick, and ye visited me,' let us unite In making the first Sunday of .Tune a rare unforgettable day for the glorious company of the shut-in and for ourselves." 0# tie Aro Mk Thorn" dlt Shoos A Work Shoe made for you— to give absolute comfort and long wear --solid construction... made oof quality leather . lly treated to resist farmyard acids.
