Dr. Ffoulkes is on a brief The banking system CANADA has a banking system which, for efficiency and dependability, is unsurpassed in the world. Competitive, flexible, adaptable to the changing needs of the country, it serves Canada's producers, her industries, her , traders—and it serves your personal' needs, too. No customer has to fear for the* privacy of his regular banking transactions. This privacy is completely free of political pressures or considerations—it is rooted in Canadian banking practice and tradition. Contrast this Canadian way with conditions in landswhere freedom is denied—where every bank is a political tool, every banker a State official! State monopoly of banking, proposed by Socialists here, would fasten the Marxist foreign pattern on you.

LOGAN Logan Township Council meeting held Aug. 13th at 8 p.m. All mem- bers present, the Reeve presided, IEVERYBODrS Busipjiss by When we speak of men as being "successful" it is gen- erally assumed that we are referring to large incomes and prominent positions. But, while these are signs of success, they are by no means its only yardsticks. Actually, I believe any man is successful who uses his energies and talents to the best of his ability. His earn- ings may be modest. But if be tries to improve himself and his environment, if he is de- pendable, agreeable and help- ful, if he cares for his family and their needs, he is truly important. Show me a man with these qualities and I will be proud to claim his acquaintance. The best objective, surely, is to strive for success in the broader sense of helping to make this abetter world! The world is better because of life insurance which has achieved success through meeting people's need for financial security. And it con- tributes to the betterment of the whole nation through in- vestments in public works and vital industries which benefit every citizen. 29 CASH FOR YOU! OLD, DISABLED OR DEAD FARM ANIMALS.
