Zurich branch of the B of M was
established in February, 1908. It
was originally an office of Molson's
Bank which later merged with the
Bank of Montreal.
The branch first located in
premises on Victoria street, form-
erly occupied by the Sovereign
Bank. In 1910, the bank moved to
the 33 of M's present location at
the north-west corner of Main and
Goshen streets.
Kippen East W I Use
'Agriculture' Theme
At February Meet
(By our Hensel) correspondent
Members . of Kippen East Worn -
ens Institute answered the roll with
a Bible verse pertaining to Agri-
culture at their February meeting,
for' which Mrs. Wilmot Boardfoot
was hostess, last Wednesday, Feb-
ruary 15, with "Agriculture" the
theme of the meeting.
Mrs. Winston Workman com-
mented on the motto, "The farmer
is God's partner in giving the world
food it must have." A highlight
of the meeting was a debate "Res-
olved that a woman does a man's
work better than a man does a wo-
man's." Captains were affirma-
tive, Mrs. Bruce McGregor; nega-
tive, Mrs. Ernie Whitehouse. The
negative side were the winners.
A display of love sewing includ-
ing quilts, pyjamas, nighties made
by the members were on display and
will be forwarded to the War Mem-
orial Children's Hospital, London.
Mrs. Alex McGregor is convener of
this project.
Mrs. Ross Broadfoot directed a
musical contest and Mrs. Robert
Bell gave courtesy remarks. Presi-
dent, Mrs. James Drummond, pres-
ided for the business and Mrs.
Campbell Eyre for the program.
Luncheon was served by Mrs.
Campbell Eyre, Mrs. Whitehouse,
Mrs. William Kyle and Mrs. Verne
Alderdice.

CAL.. FRED DUCHARME, Correspondent -1
Mr. Andrew Ducharme of Bres-
cia Hall, London, and Miss Marg-
uerite Ducharme, also of London,
spent Sunday last with parents and
relatives on this highway.
The mild spell of the past week-
end and the thaw was much wel-
comed; especially by farmers who
were hard hit for water. It has
meant the disappearance of much
of the snow; and all of that will
give hope for springtime.
The recent easterly winds have
made a clean sweep of ice on Lake
Huron. The act is kind of tricky
for the fishermen, and many dollars
worth of nets have been swallowed
by the movement when least ex-
pected. Today it is not an excep-
tion as the years gone by, when
there were hundreds of nets expos-
ed to the weather on the surface
of the frozen water. The lose to-
day is not so violent for there are
fewer nets out; however there are
still a few today and for them it
will mean the same as for those of
years ago.
The consolating part of fishing,
is when they are not victims them-
selves on the shifting ice.
Already we have embarked to-
wards the last quarter of the mon-
th of February, the month known
as the cold month.
It has been much different this
year than the passed ones, as we
have had more than half the month
with sunny days. There is hope
for an early spring as indications
points to it and it is also the gen-
eral opinion of all those who have
studied the weather during the
winter and the various changes. In
past years the month of February
has been noted to be a tough and
cold one. It can easily be said
that no one has suffered from the
ithas been most
a ree-
a b
month forg
sole winter weather.
Could it be that the weather man
might have disappeared on ground
hog day, frightened by seeing his
own shadow. Instead of seeing a
blisstery day as he had looked for;
naturally he being disappointed
thus making hint abandon all win-
ter predictions for the next six
weeks, regradless of all that may
confront us during the last quarter
of the month. Each day from now
on will mean another passing win-
ter day and each one will bring us
