"I am very proud of our staff," said Gordon R. Ball in his report as General Manager to shareholders of the B of M. "The year has been a heavy one in all sections of our business, and out staff have dis- charged their -duties with untiring energy and efficiency "But mere facts and figures do not, and perhaps cannot, convey to you the spirit and warmth of the services rendered day by day throughout the year, sometimes under most trying circumstances. "I refer to the staff in many offices where alterations are under way, who carry on with a smile amidst the' din of -trip -hammers, and with carpenters, plasterers and others working at their trades. "I refer to the men on the lonely outskirts of Labrador who have un- furled the banner of our institution in territories still undeveloped , .
