The' following statement -was made
to -night by' Sir Frederick William
Tayler,•President of the Canadian
Bankers' Association:, '
"The Canadian Bankers' Associa-
tion feels satiafled that the Dominion
Bank pis in an absolutely sound and
strong position and able to meet
without difficulty all demands likely
to be made upon it, and I know that
all the other banks comprising the
Association, would without doubt,
stand behind the Dominion Bank if
it were .necessary."
The following statement was issu-
ed October 15th by Hon. G. Howard
Ferguson, Premier of Ontario, who
was associated in a conference with
Hon. W. H. Price, Provincial Treas-
urer, and Hon. W. F. Nickle, K.('.,
Attorney General:
"We have every confidence in the
soundness of the Dominion Bank and
its ability to take care of the situa-
tion, and as evidence of that we .pro-
pose to -morrow morning to place on
deposit with that Bank the sum of
$1,500,000."

eral Manager of the Dominion Bank,

THE DOMINION BANK SCARE
Fon' the first time in its history,
Seaforth and the surrounding coun-
try were in the throes of a Bank
scare on Monday afternoon and
Tuesday morning of this week, which
caused a small run on the local
branch of the Dominion Bank,
Tuesday has the fol g
itorially of the unfortunate occur -
once;
"Stampeded depositors who swarm-
ed some of the branches of the,
Dominion Bank yesterday to draw
out their balances got their money.
Though they came without warning,
the cash was ready for them and the
business of t"rning it over to them
was as promp.,y and courteously dis-
patched as if their errand had been
to open accounts instead of to close
them.
This demonstration of the bank's
reserve strength and of its instant
preparedness in the face of What
might be called a surprise attack
could not fail to disabuse many of
the dupes of ignorant or malignant
rumor -mongers. There are various
versions of how the scare got started.
It seems incredible that so consider-
able a number of ordinarily level -
beaded people should be plunged in-
to such sudden demoralization by an
accident of misunderstanding so
slight as any of those to which it is
attributed. But from trifles serious
consequences may follow if the pub-
lic . are ready to flee when no man
pursueth. The extremely bad fail-
ure of the Home Bank put people in
such a nervous•state. The slightest
breath of utterly groundless suspic-
ion could at such a moment excite
masses of people against the most
powerful of fiduciary institutions.
The Dominion Bank has always stood
high in the estimation of men of af-
fairs, and as the President, the Gen-
eral Manager and the Auditor yes-
terday informed the public, the bank
is at present in a stronger position
than at any time in its history, and
is prepared to meet all demands that
may made upon it- That was the
brief, quiet announcement of a strong
bank, The name of Sir Edmund
Osier, the President, should itself
suffice to dispel a panic, for Sir Ed-
mund is known throughout Canada
as one of our foremost men bf busi-
ness and a man of sterling honor,
who has never been connected with
anything but enterprises of the most
solid character. Mr. Bogert has well
earned the reputation he holds as a
banker, and Mr. G. T. Clarkson, the
Auditor, could not afford to put his
name to a message thus describing
the condition of the bank if that de
scription was not strictly true. AAs
yesterday's severe test showed, the
bank was there with the money to
meet every demand made by unnerv-
ed depositors.
It is important that depositors
should keep their heads, for the
business of the country rests very
largely upon their morale. If they
listen to every tale of the circulators
of idle gossip, if they give heed to
the distorted reports of the hare-
braineil, if they pay atstention to the
talk of incendiaries, fhey can par
alyze business. Seldom indeed do de
positors in our chartered banks be
have so senselessly as did those wh
visited certain branches of the Do
minion Bank yesterday. Some o
them will be bringing back thei
money to -day."

WALTON '
Golden Jubilee. -The Walton Meth-
odist church is planning 'to hold a
Golden Jubilee Anniversary on Sun-
day and Monday, October 28th and
19th. Further particulars will be
given next week.
The'trouble started in Toronto on
Friday afternoon, when two foreign-
ers presented a cheque at one of the
city branches of the Dominion Bank
and were. refused payment on it be-
cause , it was after banking hours.
Perhaps not understanding and be-
coming alarmed, these foreigners
spread the rumor among their coun-
trymen that the bank would not pay
their cheques, and this caused such
a panic that there was a heavy run
on the Ward branch of the Bank
when it opened for business on Sat-
urday morning.
As rumors have a habit of doing
this bird of ill omen rapidly spread
' throughout the city during Sunday,
and on Monday morning. there was a
line up of depositors before the doors
of the head office and a number of
the city branches before the doors
were open for business, eager
er to
draw their money. 'And
they got it.
' There being nothing in the Toron-
to papers of either Saturday or Mon-
day concerning the run on the banks
• in that city, it was not until Monday
afternoon that the rumor .reached
Seaforth, and even then it was not
generally known. Monday being the
last day on which a discount was al-
lowed -on the payment of town taxes,
which are, payable at the Dominion
Bank, the unusually large number in
the Bank that afternoon did not at-
tract any special attention and it
'was not until evening that the news
of the run on the Toronto branches
became generally known. By Tues-
day morning, however, the news had
reached both town and country de-
positors and the Bank was crowded
all morning with anxious depositors
eager to withdraw their money. To
an uninterested observer on Tuesday
there were several signs which die -
counted the truth of the rumor of
the bank's unsoundness and pointed
to the absurdity sof the run. Among
the crowd of depositors that filled
the bank were a number of business
men, regular customers of the bank,
waiting to make deposits, while from
the Canadian Bank of Commerce,'
two doors up the street, a inessenger
could be frequently keen carrying
bundles of currency into the Domin-
ion to keep the pot boiling. That
Bank or any other, at that late hour,
would not be lending currency had
there been any danger of the bank's
soundness. But naturally, an anx-
ious depositor, in a case of this kind,
is not looking for anything but his
money, and this time he got it as fast
es it could be counted outli
With the arrival of thet morning
train with the Toronto papers, ex-
plaining the situation, and the offic-
ial statements issued by the Bank,
the Ontario Premier and others and
apackage of $50,000 in currency,
- "which had been expressed here from
ilia Head Office of the Bank, the run
attktddenly halted and by afternoon
things Were. normal again.

Hydro By -Lawn Passed. -By an
overwhelming majority Brussels on
Wednesday voted for hydro power.
Every available vote. was brought out
and of the 230 votes cast nine were
in opposition to obtaining hydro for
the village. As a result of the vote
the village will get power from Sea -
forth via Walton, which will be a dis-
tributing station. Work of construc-
tion on the power lines will not . be
started until the spring. Blyth will
vote on a similar by-law on Thurs-
day, and it is expected that that vil-
lage will also carry the proposition
almost solidly. Blyth will also get
power from Walton if the vote is
favorable.

The Schwalm Drain. --Mr. T. R.
Patterson, C. E., of Goderich, the
township en neer, made .a survey of
the tiled , ortion of the Schwalm
Drain last' week and will teport on
the condition of the same at the next
meeting of the council of Hay town-
ship, The open portion of this drain
has been recently cleaned out and
improved from the outlet' of the tiled
portion into- Stanley township, a
distance of about two miles. The
work was done by day labor and all
parties who lave seen the work are
giving the foreman and his assist-
ants much ,praise on the good work
they performed. When the tiled por-
tion is repaired, this drain should
serve the lands drained for many
years with a small amount expended
yearly for maintenance.
Notes. -School was closed last
Thursday and Friday, the teachers
being in attendance at the South Hp-
ron ,Teachers' Convention held at
Exeter. - Mr. Edward Kalbfleisch,
son of Mr. and Mrs. Louis Kalbfleisch,
16th concession, was taken to Lon-
don one day last week 'to take the
insulin treatment for diabetes. It
is reported that the treatment has
already been of some benefit to hirtl
and he is somewhat improved in
health. -The residents of Zurich and
vicinity were shocked to hear of the
death of Mr. Elmore Magel, of De-
troit. He died in that city after a
short illness, thy. funeral being held
in that city last Friday.' The late
Mr. Magel was a native of Zurich
and left for'' Detroit about ' fifteen
years ago, where he had prospered.
-Mr. Frank Corrivean, who pur-
chased the 75 acre farm, near Drys-
dale, from the Durand estate, is im-
proving the appearance of the same
and will have a fine' farm in another
year or two. -Farmers in the west-
ern portion '-of Hay township Were
fortunate in the,harvesting of their
bean crop, most of them getting the
beans into the barns in a dry condi-
tien.^.Ther•bean-growing industry is
becoming one of the chief sources of
revenue' to the farmers along 'the
lake shbre.."Large' acreages are an-
nually put -but and the harvest is
usually successful. Not many beans
have been sold as the price does not
appeal 'to theofarmers,-who are wait-
ing for the $3.0) per bushel mark. -

School Field Day. -In case passers
by heard unusual sounds issuing
from the assembly hall of the Dublin
High School last Friday evening a-
bout 5.30 o'clock, we wish to assure
them that it was only the scbool yell
being given by some four score tired
-but well satisfied boys' and girls.
Field day is once more a thing of
the past. No more perfect day could
have been desired and from the open-
ing event until the ,close all the pupils
did their best to make every moment
interesting to the spectators. The
sports began with the, girls' ball game
in which the Reds defeated the Blues.
Then followed 'the boys' baseball.
They pet up a good game and the
Giants, under Joseph Feeney, . had
some strenuous work befote defeat-
ing Robert Byrne's fast Canucks. The
numerous entries in the various ac-
es showed the enthusiasm with which
the scholars entered into the day's
sport. Among the any interesting
contests the pole v It and jumping
deserve special me tion. Splendid
work was shown along these lines.
One the completion of the out-of-door
sports, the crowd adjourned to the
assembly hall to partake of refresh-
ments. While these were being en-
joyed, a delightful surprise,was
sprung upon the 'pupils whn Rev..
Father White announced :lat. he was
giving a shield to the school. The
names of the boy: and the girl who
each year win the highest number
of points in the field day contests are

Mr. Robinson, who has been the min-

time, has become very popular with
the people. The circuit has had its
ups and downs. During the Tor-
rance ministry Over a hundred new
members were
added, but about the
time of the Tiffin patorate, friction
between the preacher and some of
the hearers commenced, and continu-
ed down through a number of pas-
torates and upon a summary being
made it was found that many of the
most useful and best paying mem-
bers were gone. Another source of
weakness was a number of occupants
of the pews got an itching to preach,
who could not preach in any way in-
teresting or instructive sermons. At
one time there were four or Ave of
these. The church just east from
Winthrop, was scrapped through loss
of membership and lack of support.
It is pleasing to know that Mr. Rob-
inson and the two pastors who pre-
ceeded him, are builders of the church.

Death of John Alexander. -One of
the best known and most highly
esteemed residents of this township
passed away at his home on the Kip -
pen Road, on Thursday of last week

at the good age of 81 years, follow-

BRUCEFIELD
Choral Concert -.To an audience
which packed the spacious church to
the doors, the Bruceield Choral So-
ciety gave a splendid boncert on Mon-
day night as the culmination of sev-
eral months' regular practice, con-
ducted by Prof. Anderton, of London.
There were between seventy and
eighty voices in the chorus and the
careful shading and harmony of tone
produced, gave ample evidence of the
wonderful ability of the conductor
and that Brucefleld has some excel-
lent musical talent. The programme
commenced at 8 p.m., with a chorus,
"'Hail to the Chief," followed by "Loch
Lomond," a contralto solo by Miss
Iva Plewcs, Clinton, and the chorus
taken by the full choir; "Cavatina"
(Rall), a violin solo by Mrs. Oakley,
of Goderich; song, "Who'll Take the
Place of Mary?" by Mr. W. Good-
win, tenor, Hensall, with "The Mer-
maid," as an encore; a recitation;)
"The Jolly Ride," by Miss Ola Cook,
of Hensall; chorus, "Sweet and Low"
bye the choir; "Coming Thro' the
Rye," by Miss Edrie Tye, soprano, of
Goderich, with encore, "My Bonnie,"
and Mrs Anderton had the whole aud-
ience rise and join in the chorus.

Enthusiasm waxed high when L
Lomond" followed and the rafters
above the neat matched -hardwood
ceiling must have rung with the
mighty volume of sound. Song "Call-
er Herrin,' by Miss Plewgs, her en-
core was "I'm Glad My Heart's My
Ain." At this juncture, Rev.. W. D.
McIntosh suddenly became inspired
to deliver . a lecture on "Meter."
"There is meter in music and there is
meter in measure, but the best is to
meet 'er alone;" said he. "Upidee,"
a solo by Miss Jean Murdock, of
Brucefleld, with 'the racy chorus
taken by the choir, and in which
the audience joined. Doorak's
"Humoresque" was exquisitively ren-
dered on theviolin by Mrs. Oakley. -
