P. Dietrich was engaged to cut down the banks at the most suitable place on each property. Councillor Brock tabled written complaints on the Brock Drain, from Franklin Rodd on Branch 'A' and from Milton Brock on the main drain. These requests for repairs to the Brock drain'were formally accepted by the council on motion of Councillors Brook and Pincomhe and directed to be re- ferred to the township drainage engineer. The road superintendent advised that the council should make some ruling in regard to milkstands placed on the side of the road as several ratepayers had asked for permission to erect milkstands on the township , roadside. Council agreed that such stands placed close to the side of the road con- stituted a definite traffic hazard and liability risk and on motion of Councillors Brock and Jeffery in- structed that the township would assume no responsibility in con- nection with the placing of milk. - stands on the side of the road by ratepayers, and further directed that public notice be given to all" ratepayers to that effect by adver- tising in the local newspapers for two weeks.

"Talk about real-life dramas you should try my job!" Bill: "I don't see how you keep so cheerful, Dick. I should think a life insurance agent's job would be humdrum." Dick: "You're wrong there! You'd be surprised how much drama there is in my job — and what a kick I get oat of it. Yesterday, for instance ... 1. "At the office I found a claim cheque ready for delivery to a widow who - needed that money. Don't you suppose her gratitude made me feel I'd done something important?" 2. "Then, on the way back, I stopped off to see Tom Black — he and a partner have just opened a new garage..Now, if one of the partners should die prematurely, the other will be able to carry on that business-" 3. "From there to see George Williams who's retiring soon. Our com- pany will start paying him to relax and enjoy him- self. You should have seen him smiling, jest like a happy kid!" 4. "Coming out,.I met Jim Trimble who's going to col- lege — "thanks to the policy I sold his Dad. Believe me, I 'shared his excitement." 5. "Next, I helped a couple bring their life in- surance programme up to date. They've just had an addition to their family. They were happy before, but now they've got peace of mind, too! "That's the way it goes. "And that's why I think a life insurance agent has the best job in the world!"

But most folk nowadays keep their money in bank accounts. They 'can get it whenever they want it; and they can pay their -bills. by cheque. Canadians have more than seven million such deposit accounts. In terms of Canada's adult population, that makes it practically unanimous. The banks, in turn, know they must earn this confidence by giving you the best service they know how. Today you can take your account to any bank you choose. And what is in your bank book is strictly between you and your bank. It is your own private business. State monopoly of banks would wipe out competition and would open your bank account to the eye of the state official.
