REGULAR PRICES McKILLOP Death of Angus More The death occurred at his home on the North Gravel Road on Tuesday, October 25th, of Mr. Angus More, in his 02nnd' year, following a protracted illness- Mr. More Was born in Caithness, Scotland, coming to Amer- ica in 1898, when the went to Pitts- burg, Penersylvania. In. 1912 he came to Canada, settling at Dashwood, where he resided! until 1918, when he purchased the farm of the late James Kerr in McKillop, which has since been his home. Mr. More was' a skill- ed Highland piper and he and his pipes were a familiar figure at many public gatherings, where he was al- ways popular. Besides his widow, who was formerly Miss Emma Schroe- der,' of Dashwood, he is survived by two sons and one daughter, Messrs. Alexander and Angus More, of Chica- go, and Mrs. John Glew, of McKillop. A .son, James, was killed in an acci- dent on the farm a year ago. He is also survived by a sister in Chicago and four brothers liv%nlg in Scotland. The funeral was .held from his late home on the sixth concession, on Thursday afternoon when the ser- vices were oondu'cbed by Rev. R. W. Craw, the funeral being under the auspices of Winthrop Orange Lodge, of which Mr. More was a member. Interment was made in Maitlandbank cemetery, t h e p'al'lbearers being Messrs. Archie and William Kerr, Wil- mer Scott, B. Rising, Percy Little and Lorne 'Webster. LONDESBORO Miss L. Young spent several days recently with Rev. and Mrs. Gard- iner, EgmMattel Ile. lVbrs. J.

But it will not do So for long. Because later this year the London Bankers' Clearing house, which has stood in Pout Office Court, off L.om- bald Street, since 1833, will lie .pulled dowan.. and a splenndid modern edifice ereoted) in pits place. Passersby an King William Street may daily see thrrough the windows of a drab, bnownlhued building, shi'rt- sleeved clerks feverishly operating adding, machines. But few of those passersby realize they, are witness- ing one of the daily "elearingts" of an organization that constitutes a cor- nerstone of the banking system as we know it today. So little known is the Bankers' Clearing House that when a visitor to th,e house asked a postman, from the post o•ffioe 'opposite, where the clearing house was, the postman re- plied, "Never heard of it." Last year crheques to the value of £42,000,000,000 passed through the London Bankers' Clearing House. This sum is about 40 times the total of the nation's budget. Even Nd York clearing house play second' fid - dire to London, handling only £38,000,- 000,000 (198,000,000,000) of cheques. The average value of the cheques ':ar.'dled each day is around £139,- 000.000 ($695,000,000) but .on Stock Exchange - settlement days, when. the biggest turnover in money •takes place in the city of London, some- thing like £175,000,000 ($875,000,000) of cheques are handled. It is on these .days that these is the greatest ruse'-. in the clearing house. Some 200 to 300 bank clerks work under the guidance of gray-haired gannon. - Mr. and Mrs. Jaynes Elslley are. spending some weeks at tthe home of their daughter, Mas. Milton Hooper, dear St.. Marys.

Phone 41, Seaforth. 0 The Huron Expositor ✓i' I deliberate, Ralph „Miller, cbiert. in- spector s spe'ctor of the—clearing hditse. The biggetit banks have as many ae 30 clerks in (the house, the smallest ones only a few. h Quick Workers A continual stream of clerks came War -thigh the house entrance, which is in a dark owner of Post Office Court, each bringfng�with him in a capacious bag bundles of cheques, which were. distributed to the various desks. al- located to the iidfferent banks. Other clerks took these bundles of' cheques and frantically listed them, racing against time, on adding ma- cihines fitted into specially designed desks, which can be quickly convert- ed to form. a flat top for writing or sorting. The Landau Bankers' Clearing House falls into three sections --- town, metropolitan and country clearing. There are more than 300 adding machines.. About 260 of them are used for both the town and metropolitan olearings, but the re- mainder are used for the country clearing only. Two town only., are held each day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, but only one metro- politan and one country. The town clearings are much bigger in volume than the othens. The great gnowtlh of trhe hanks is primarily due to the. widespread use of the cheque; and the cheque system could only have achieved its present effectiveness by ' the emergence of the practice of reduc- ing the payments between bank aril bank to bhe minimum by means of offsetting claims at a "clearing." The importance of the Bankers' Clearing house can thus be readily appreciated. But the clearing house, like other creat institutions in 'the city, had no carefully planned origin. Like, Topsy, "it just Vowed." Born in Scotland The system seems to have had its birth in Scotland as long ago as 1730, and by 1752 there was an official establishment there to ex- change cheques. But so far as Lon- don is concerned, about 1770 d few bank clerks tired of visiting other banks to collect the proceeds of cheques drawn on them, thought they would save themselves a lot of trouble by combining business with pleasure. Se they arranged to meet at lunch at a favorite chop house, .the "Five Bells" in Dove Court, off Lombard Street, and over their lunch, to ex- change their cheques. A few years later the banks took Official cognizance of thus practice, and they hired a special room in the "Five Bella" for the clearing to take place. At that time the aver- age daily clearing totalled £105,000 ($525,000). Subsequently, a new clearing house —c,onasisting of one Small' room—was built in 1833, on part of the site of the courtyard of the old general post office. Just inside the entrance to the ex- isting building is the original small room which constituted the clearing house 105 years ago. Even the ident- ical desks are still doing good ser- vice. e Heffron. Mrs, H. Mustards, of Tokoma, Wash. and Mrs. Harry Brenizer, of Abiene, Kansas, are visiting with the form- er's brother, Mr. and Mrs. William Taylor.

When cold' weather comes healthy appetites autarnaticaily seem to re quire warm foods•. Why not satisft th'is natural desire by serving and eating cheese? Cheese may, of course, be used a it is purchased, but in this form it does not provide the pleasing sense of warmth to the taste, although its high fat .content makes it an excel- lent heat producer in the body.

Two of the actors set out to work their way back to London.
