Again We Say, "What About The
Centennial Money?"
SOME TIME AGO we wrote about the centennial money,
which is still sitting in a current account at the local bank, Surely
the least that could be done would be to have this money transferred
to a savings account, so there would be same interest derived from
it.
With all the community projects which are under way, there
should be no trouble finding a suitable place for this money. Why
shouldn't there be a public meeting called to decide the fate of these
funds, which, after all, were raised by the general public,
Personally, we believe the project of a children's playground
next to the arena is a real good one. With the probability of the
fall fair being held in this location, It almost seems everyone would
be agreeable to investing the money in this manner. Lets have a
meeting and get it settled once and for all.
Let's Enforce The Law
SEVERAL WEEKS ago "No Parking here to Corner" signs
were erected at the main intersections of Zurich. The idea was very
good, as this is a dangerous corner and serious accidents could hap-
pen there.
For some reason or another no one seems to be obeying this
new regulation, and we wonder if perhaps a few violation tickets
may change the situation. Better idea yet, may be to place warning
cards on .first time offenders, with the understanding that the next
time it will result in a fine.
Keep Our Streets Clean
EARLY LN THE year, at a meeting of the village trustees,
we understood they had decided to keep our streets clean, both in
the winter and summer. This past winter they did an excellent
job of snow removal, and are to be .commended for their efforts..
•However, now that the snow is gone, there is plenty of dirt
on our main streets. It would be very nice if this rubbish were also
cleaned away. How about it, trustees?

Boy
Scout
News
(By Pat O'Brien, A.S.M.)
On Wednesday night the Boy
Scout Troop held their meeting,
which opened with everyone say-
ing the Scout Promise. The Tend:
erpack test was reviewed, after
which plans were made for the
candy sale, which was held on
Saturday.
Now I would Iike to tell you
something about a Scoutmaster.
As you know, he is the leader of
the troop, and teaches the Scouts
their tests. He is also a personal
friend to all the boys, and he helps
them in their personal life as well
as in Scouting, If at any time any-
one has any questions they would
like to ask, I would be only too
happy to try and answer them.
On the same night as the Scouts
held their meeting, the Wolf Cubs
held theirs. The highlight was a
Cub Investiture by Douglas O'-
Brien, who in scouting is called
"Akela". The six boys who were
taken into the Cubs were: Paul
Hesse, Don McAdams, Paul Cor-
riveau, Gary Flaxbard, Charles
Begier, and Edward Prang. The
boys were presented with an en-
rollment card and congratulated
be Akela.
Keep up the good work, boys,
and do the best you possibly can.
"Good Scouting,"
Girl Guide Nay'
(By Carol Fischer)
The Girl Guides held their reg-
ular meeting on Thursday night,
with much of their time being used
in making plans for their Hot
Cross Bun sale. However, they
did find time to enjoy sonie square
dancing.
After the meeting, Court of
Honour was opened with the
Guides Promise. A discussion was
held on various projects which will
be coming up in the near future.
On Saturday afternoon the Girl
Guides and Brownies were around
taking orders for the Hot Cross
buns, and they report it as being
very successful.

B of M Personal Chequing Service
Cuts Banking Costs in Paying Bills
Paying for goods and services
by personal cheque is a safe, can-
venient and inexpensive method of
handling household and personal
expenses. Now it's been made
even more economical by the in-
troduction of Bank of Montreal
personal chequing accounts, which
reduce the cost of each cheque
to only ten cents.
Instead of writing cheques a-
gainst your saving account, or bus-
iness -type current account, you
can now operate your own per-
sonal chequing account at a lower
rate. With this new type of per-
sonalized account, you are charged
a set rate of only ten cents per
cheque cashed, thus eliminating
extra book-keeping, making it pos-
sible for the bank to pass on the
saving to you.
The B of M also provides you.
with quarterly statements instead
of a passbook, and makes no ch-
arge for deposits as in the case
of a current account, where ten
cents is charged for each entry.
Why not take advantage of this
new service by visiting the Zurich
branch of the Bank of Montreal,
James Wild, the accountant, will
be glad. to explain all the details
and to help you open your per-
sonal chequing account If you de-
cide you want one. It's the mod-
ern way to pay your bills, and
your cancelled cheques, which are
held by the B of M for twenty
years, are always instantly avail-
able as perfect receipts for your
budget records. 21-b
