Our town was a fur trading outpost in the early
days—now it is part of a great forest industry.
And serving that industry—and us—is the bank

Thanks Weekly
Ali Flood Victims Being Re-established
At the annual convention of
the Canadian Weekly News-
papers Association held at the
Chateau Frontenac Hotel, Que-
bec City, October 23-25. a reso-
lution of thanks to the Weekly
Newspapers of Canada was
presented by the Manitoba
Flood Relief Fund in apprecia-
tion of the part played by the
Weekly Press in assisting in the
rehabilitation of flood victims
of the Red River Valley.
In presenting the resolution,
at the annual banquet, attended
by some 400 Weekly Newspaper
editors from all part of Canada,
Cecil Lamont, Honorary Na-
tional Organizer of the Mani-
toba Flood Relief Fund, told
how total contributions to the
Fund had reached $8,775,000.00
in cash and in addition, dona-
tions in kind with a value of
several hundreds of thousands
of dollars, had been turned over
to the Red Cross and other relief
agencies for distribution to flood
sufferers.

rens
Mr. Lamont informed the
editors that the following ap-
propriation had been made from
the Fund, to date:
Repair and replace-
ment of household
furnishings and ef-
fects, clothing, Pri-
v a t e automobiles,
etc, $2,500,000
Compensation for
out-of-pocket liv-
ing and travelling
expenses of persons -
who were forced to
evacuate t h e i r
homes on account
of flood $1,500,000
Aid to small busi-
nesses, market
gardeners and fur
farmers to cover
losses of goods and
inventory as a re-
sult of the flood $1,000,000
Compensation to
farmers for loss of
livestock, poultry,
feed, seed, grain
and machinery lost
or damaged $1,000,000
A survey is now being conduct-
ed with a view to assisting
churches, hospitals, private
schools and semi-public in-
stitutions which do not come
within the scope of govern-
mental assistance.
As a result of the generous
response from all parts of Can-
ada, all persons who have suf-
fered losses, other than struc-
tural damage, have been or are
in the process of being compen-
sated from the Flood Fund, and
are able to resume their normal
home and business lives, Struc-
tural damage to buildings is
being taken care of by the Do-
minion and Provincial Govern-
ments. These Governments,
along with the Municipalities,
are now engaged in the con-
struction of dikes to guard
against future floods, where this
is feasible. '
The newspaper editors were
informed that the total cost of
raising the fund had been less
than three-quarters of one per
cent, which is believed to be a
record low cost for :fund raising,
The small expenditure in raising
the Fund was made- possible
through all services being con-
tributed • by those who took part
in raising the Fund.
The resolution presented to
the Canadian Weekly News-
papers Association and to this
paper appears in the adjoining
