Mrs. Phillips went on to say that her mother would love to come, but as she is 94 years of age this year it is not felt that a trip would be possible.

YOUR .CREDIT UNION SPEAKS To start out the third in a ser- ies of Credit Union workings we will give a brief summary of the first two weeks information. A Credit Union is a bank encour- aging thrift and providing a means of obtaining credit when needed. It consists of a group, company or a community group; is controlled by its members with no high paid officials; is chart- ered; has a small entry fee and is neutral in religion, race and politics, leaving ;a Credit Union open to anyone. This week we wish to answer a few questions in regard to the Savings Department of your Credit Union: Q. How does a Credit Union encourage thrift A. By having its members save regularly, even small amounts, as payment on shares of the Credit Union. It is hoped that by the time a member has paid for a share the habit of thrift will have become rooted and he will continue saving. Q. What is a share? A. A share is usually $5. However, there are no certifi- cates issued by a Credit Union, the $5.00 shares being units of savings upon which the divi- dends are payable. Q. How are dividends com- puted? A. At each annual meeting the C. U. may declare a dividend payable on all $5 units of sav- ings ((shares) outstanding at the end of the C. U. year. Dividends are calculated on a share -a - month basis. Dr. G. A. Stewart, Belleville, son of the late George Stewart, formerly of the Seaforth Flour Mill, said that he was sorry he would miss the Reunion, since he and his wife are spending the summer in Europe. Fred Twiss, of 119 Erie Ave., Brantford, was a Seaforth resi- dent for many years and his acknowledgment said: "I will be glad to spend a week in my home town, as I often think of the wood times I had. I am going to write Roy Dungey for reserva- tions for a week." . George Daly, a well-known Seaforth Old Boy, who looks af- ter art work at The Robert Simpson Co., Toronto, has de- signed a drawing for use of Re- union advertising, which appears at the top of this column. He is assisting in rounding up a Tor- onto delegation, ready for the big days—July 30 to August 3. While names are continuing to come into the invitation commit- tee almost daily, chairman of the invitation committee, Hazel Reid, says that she feels there are a number of former resi- dents who have not yet been contacted. The committee urges that all in town and throughout the district forward the names of any who lived here at one time so that they may be told of the plans which are being made for the Reunion celebra- tion—July 30—August 3. Some- times there is a hesitation be- cause it is felt that names might already have been submitted, but there need be no fear in this connection, Miss Reid said, since the system which has been estab- lished eliminates any duplica- tions.
