PENNY BANK DEPOSITS
Total amount on deposit in the
Penny Bank at Seaforth schools at
the end of October, 11933: ' $1,57.7,167.
Comparative figures of a, Year ago:.
$1,670.015, •
The average weekly 'percentage of
pupils depositing during September
and October, 19313, Seaforth (Separate
.30%, Seaforth Public 3'3%.
In a statement to the teachers, J,
R, Littleproud, Ontario Penny 'Bonk
Inspector, says:,
The last four years have taught the
public the value of school savings in
a more effective manner than any ed-
ucator or banker' could have hoped to
do. Stories arelegion of the purchase
of clothing, food, fuel, medicine, and
glasses with school savings balances.
_Medical attention has been secured,
and mortgage obligations have been
met when all other resources but the
children's savings were exhausted.
'Programmes planned months , and
years ago have been carried out des-
pite adverse conditions everywhere,
School savings have permitted cher-
ished plans to be realized,
The value of reserve funds in an
emergency and the effectiveness of
regular savings in bringing .plants to
maturity have combined to awaken in
both child and parent a thrift con
seiousness, Everywhere people are
placing more faith in personal- econ-
omics than in municipal or govern-
ment policies to bring about better
conditions. The loyal co-operation of
the /cachet's and their tactful emotes,
agenteuit of small regular deposits
have been portent factors in awaken-
ing this thrift .consciousness.
Despite the necessity of heavy with-
drawals, the balance owing the child-
ren in .470 schools of the province
participating in : school savings was
$11200,000, a degrease of $715,000 as
compared with':a year ago.' The num-
ber ofdeposits keeps up well.
