Inanother column of, this paper swill be seen the annual financial statement of the Standard Reliance Mortgage Corporation. This is one of the best statements issued _by any financial corporations 'for the year 1913, and was highly commend ed by the s'hat'(eholtiers who were :present at,the annual meeting held at the company's offices, 82-88 King .Street East, , Toronto, ' on Monday, Manch, the 2nd. The i.et earnings amounted to over 11 per cent. of (the paidelup capital, which now amounts to the .substantial isum of $1,985,104.00. After deducting interest on deben- tures and deposits, amounting to *122,521,00, rOhe balance available 'for distribution amounted to $228- 806.00, of which r um $118,471,00 was :paid out in dividends, $100,000 was -added to the reserve fund, and the , balance carried' forward to the ere- :at of Loss and Gain account. T'he present corporation is an .amalgamation of the Standard Loan Company and the Reliance .Loan and Savings Company of On- tario, the amalgamation having taken effect on the 1st of May last, The president, Mr. N.H. Ste- vens, stated that the net earnings .of(the corporation for 1913 exceed- ed the combined net earnings of the two companies prior to the amal- gamation by over $30,000. This re- cord is well worth noting, as show - ling not only the efficiency secured by the combination of the two com- panies- under one management, but it shows also what may beaceom- ,plished, in the way of reduction of expenses of oper(ation. - It will be noted from a perusal of the statement that the total as- aets now amount to ., 165110,332,00. The position obtained in 65,110,332,00. efinan- cial world by the Standard Reliance Mortgage Corporation places it amongst the largest and most.pros- perous financial institutions in the :Dominion.

Grant, B. A„ principal of the Sarnia collegiate institute, in a let ter gives the following account of the origin and scope of the Carter scholar ships for the benefit of young students in certain parts of Ontario: I would like to answer a number of commuuieations received from high school teachers throughout Ontario in reference to the Inquest of the lute Mr. Garter to the cause of secondary 'education, probably the ,largest be- quest for this purpose that has ever been given in this province. Mr. Carter died at Sarnia on Nevem her 2 last, He was a native of Huron county and a pioneer salt manatee 'turer. He founded the Empire Salt Co., of Sarnia, one of the largest and most prosperous in the .country. Al. though not equipped with a higher education. Mr. Carter possessed a most logical mind and keen business acumen Some seven years ago when -he and I were :spending an evening with a mutual friend, I happened to mention a letter I had just received from a former pupil asking if I could accom- modate him with a smell loan to en- atle him to complete his year at col- lege, I made the statement tbati had known many worthyetudents towhom the offer of a little financial aid would be almost invaluable, hut unfortunate. ly my means were limited, A few days later Mr. Carter, who was an intimate friend, rent for me and told me he bad been thinking seriously over my rem rks about assisting Worthy ancients. Restated that his income was much larger than his ,ex- penditure, and that he would like to do a little to help along that line if I would show him the bestway to go about it. He did not look upon it as charity. After discussing the matter thoroughly he decided to offer three cash scholarships of 9120, $10!) and $50 for Sarnia Collegiate institute for the senior examinations. The following year, on my advice, he changed these to county scholarships, thus allowing 1 the other three high schools in Lamb - ton county to compete. He alto de- cided to give an equal amount to Flu. eon, Perth, Middlesex and Wellirgeon. Mr. Carter was io pleased with the result of his experiment that 1 e de- cided to make them perpetual. With this end in view he applied to the leg- islature to pass a law authorizing the provincial treasurer to seceive lega- cies for this purpose, and to pay five per cent. interest on them. Mr. Cart- er, in his will that has just been pro- bated, has left the sum of one hun- dred thousand dollare for this cause, the interest to be used in providing scholarships of $100, $90 and $40, in each of the following twenty-five counties. These will be known as the J. I. Carter scholarships. Although Mr. Carter was not much given to sentiment, I have more than once seen tears trickling down his cheeks, as he read over to me some of the pathetic letters of thanks he had received from strugglingstudents on receipt of his check. Te counties to receive the benefit are: 1, Brant; 2, Bruce; 3, unit- ed counties of Glengarry, Dundee and Stormont; 4, Elgin; 5, Essex; 0, Grey; 7, Halbimand; 8, Hastings; 9, Huron; 10, Kent; 11, Lambton; 12, Leeds; 13, Middlesex; 14, Lanark; 15, Ontario; 10, Oxford; 17, Perth; 18, Renfrew; 19, Simcoe; 20, Waterloo; 21, Wellington; 22, Welland;23, Wentworth;24, County of York; 25, City of Toronto; (which, for the purpose of the wilt, is treated as if 1t constituted a separate count') The general principle followed in se- lecting the counties was to choose those having the largest high school attendance, It was Mr. Carter's am bition, however. to live long enough to provide for every county in the pro vinue, but unfortunately it was not to be. The following are the conditions governing the scholarships: First. The candidates who obtain the highest aggregate of marks on up D er school papers for entrance into faculty of education or scholarship matriculation in arts into the Univer situ of Toronto, or honor matrieula tion, shall be eligible for these scholar ships. First, one hundred dollars; second, sixty dol'ars; third, forty dol lars. Sec tnd- No candidate shall be eligi ble for anv of these scholarships who hes not attended one of the high sdhools or collegiate institutes in the county in which he is competing for at least one year immediately previous to the examination, and no candidate who has been awarded one of these scholarships shall be eligible to corn pete at any. subsequent examination. Third. The winner of any other scholarship is not debarred from re ceivinga Carter scholarship, The awards will he made by the edu cation department, and the checks forwarded by them, The residueof Mr. Garter's est ate probably twentyfive thousand dollars is left to the Torontohospital b s ttal for sick children. In these two bequests Mr. Carter has erected a monument to his memory that will withstand the ray ages of time. There have been 'weal thier men in this province, and many whose names were better known, but J I. Carter's name will be revered when moat of these are forgotten.
