when I felt like it, and avoid per-
sonal entanglements like the pla-
gue. My chief ambition was to
avoid work in any form, and my
only desire was to find some exot-
ic land crawling with beautiful na-
tive women, and there settle down
hi the sun.
* . .
But even as the walls of Jeri-
cho, I tumbled. Like most young
men of that age, I was just like
an egg. I thought I was hard-boil-
ed, but I wasn't even half -cooked.
One crack in 'the shell, and I ran
allover he place.
In short, I got married, and I've
been running all over the place ev-
er since. Our marriage, in those
14 years, has had its ups and
downs. And a good part of the
time we seemed to be going side-
ways. In those 14 frantic years,
however, I've changed a lot, My
cynicism has become merely a
healthy scepticism. I haven't a
hope of being selfish any more.
But some things haven't changed.
I'm still broke, and I'm still free.

Oh, not free in the old way, mind
you. I can't go out with the girls
any more. I can't sit up with the
boys until the wee small, and I
can't throw all my worldly pos-
sessions in a bag and take off for
Rio. Not unless I want to arrive at

the airport wilt a kid clinging at
each leg, and my wife flying from
my neck like a pennant.
But I'm free in the things that
really count, T can go golfing or
fishing any time I feel like it. As
long es the kids don't want to go
swimming. I can speak my mind
freely on any subject, around our
house with fear of contradiction.
As long as I do it down in the cel-
lar, or while I'm mowing the lawn.
I can stop my son from wearing
my T-shirts and sox. If I can catch
him before he gets out of the
house.

These thirteen promising young Ontario
students are among the 50 from all parts
of Canada who will shortly begin their
college careers in the Arts or Sciences
at the Universities of their choice under
the Bank of Montreal Canada Centennial
Scholarship Plan. Each of these students
will receive a scholarship of $750, in this,
the first year of the Bank's seven-year Plan.
We, at the Bank of Montreal, congratu-
late these exceptional young people, We
are happy to assist them in their pursuit of

a higher education in fields where they will
have the opportunity — through scientific
research and pursuits in the public service
— to contribute in some notable way to the
common good of the nation in the years
ahead.
To all of these students we extend
warmest wishes in their endeavours to
qualify for the additional valuable scholar-
ships to be awarded each year until 1967,
when the Plan culminates in Canada's
Centennial Year.
HERE ARE THE ADDITIONAL AWARDS FOR WHICH THESE STUDENTS MAY QUALIFY:
48 SCHOLARSHIPS OF $1,500.. .
In the Spring of 1961, the top 16 of
these 50 students will each be awarded
a 13 of M Scholarship of $1,500 for
second -year university training.
In 1962 and 1963, provided at least
good second-class grades have been
maintained, these same students will
each be awarded a B of M Scholarship
of $1,500 per annum ... leading to
graduation in 1964.
24 FELLOWSHIPS OF $3,000...
In the Spring of 1964, the top eight of
these 16 students will each be awarded
a B of M Scholarship of $3,000 for one
year's study anywhere in Canada or
abroad.
In 1965 and 1966, provided a satisfac-
tory standard of work has been main-
tained, these same students will each be
awarded a B of M Scholarship of $3,000
per annum for further study leading to
their Doctorate.

BANK OF MONTREAL CANADA
CENTENNIAL AWARDS OF $5,000
In 1967, to culminate this seven-year
plan, the two top students—one in Arts
and one in Science—will be chosen, from
all 50 original participants in the plan,
to receive the Bank of Montreal Canada
Centennial Awards of $5,000 each for a
further year of study anywhere in Can-
ada or abroad.
Thus, to each of these two winners — if
they have been participants throughout
the plan — the Bank will have provided
financial assistance amounting to $19,250.
