THE CLINTON ' NEWS -RECORD
UNUSUAL BANKING
IN THESE UNUSUAL TIMES
As Canada's war efforts gain length of stride and speed of step,
business in general reflects added activity and increases in volume.
AS business increases, banking activity also increases.•Ourservice
keeps pace with the requirements of our customers, : albeit occa-
sionally they may experience slight delays, owing to war -time
depletion of our staff. (More than six hundred members of our staff
ace already in the Empire's forces.)
By experience, increased effort and up-to-date equipment, we
endeavour to compensate for reduced numbers, to avoid delays and
inconvenience to our customers, and, to conduct all banking trans-
actions, however unusual, with everyday efficiency.

HULLETT TOWNSHIP
At a ratepayers meeting for the
Township of Hullett, held in the Lon-
desboro Community Hall last Monday
afternoon, the gathering, in a -stand-
ing vote, decided in the negative on
the .continuance of the railway prob-
lem, which has been a debatable prob-
tem ever since the branch line from
Clinton to Wingham was discontinued
The matter had been placed before
the ratepayers at the nomination
meeting held in November, and it was
decided at that time, to !sold a public
meeting of the ratepayers, in order to
get a clear view of the feeling of the
Township. ,
After the Councillors had explained
the communications, between them-
selves and ,Mr. McGibbon, Kitchener
lawyer, who had gone thoroughly into
the matter for them, a standing vote
was taken to decide in favotu of drop-
ping or continuing the investigation,
and the vote was almost unanimous in
the negative.
A bonus stun of $25,000 winch the
Township of Hullett had given when
the line was inaugurated, and a seem-
ingly indisputable agreement with the
railway company, justified the Coun-
cil in their determination to ascertain
their chances "art .recovering the sunt
loaned by the. Township, and there
was no criticism from ratepayers fox
their decision to investigate' the mat-
ter fully,
