The fact that there was one such citizen came out in the course of conversation this week with Jim Hendry, the Bank of Montreal’s .Exeter manager. The story‘concerns John Ver- t oba, of Lampman, Sask., a cus tomer of the B qf M at Estevan. On June 20, a year or so ago, it seems Mr. Veroba asked for and received a Farm Improve ment Loan of $2,0*00 to buy a threshing combine. On July 5, he took his new machine to Sharon Springs, Kansas, where he hired out as its operator for a month, while his own crops were ripening at- home. Early in August, Mr. Veroba, his combine nicely broken in, headed northward to garner his own crops. The day he reached home, August 11, he repaid the full $2,000 to the B .of M. In terest charges cost him only $12.60. A month’s work had earned him the’ price of the Combine. / So pleased was Mr.- Veroba that he wanted to pay .the B of M a bonus. The manager was deeply touched, He expressed ap preciation but declined tile offer. “Mr. Veroba’s case ’shows how a timely- loan can be excellent business for the borrower,” said Mr. Hendry. , “Farm Improve- ! ment Loans are availible for I many useful purposes, and they cost very little1—-just 'five per cent interest. Ud be glad to dis cuss any sound proposition with I local farmers.” (adv’t) Business Directory DR. H. H. COWEN L.D.S., D.D.S. o DENTAL SURGEON Main Street, Exeter Closed Wednesday Afternoon * Bus.

The council felt that such Mauds placed close to the side of the road constituted a definite traffic hazard and li ability risk.
