Every Canadian citizen has a part to do in winning this "survival"war against the international bandits who are trying to kill freedom and enslave man- kind. Your war work is your most important job. The Bank of Montreal encourages war -time saving, rather than borrowing, but there are cases where a timely bank loan not only saves money for the borrower but helps him to do a better job for VICTORY. If you find it necessary to borrow money in order to perform your highest duty as a Canadian citizen —whatever that duty may be—please feel free to discuss your financial needs in confidence with the manager of our nearest branch. We have hundreds of branches throughout Canada.
