It is always a happy event when it is possible to ..-.rr., ‘7" make one of our members a life mem- ber. It is also a serious obligation when one pledges themselves to work for God and Home in every land for a lifeâ€"time. Not only do we ï¬nd Mrs. Mortson working in the W. C. T. U. but also in the various activities 0 fthe church and communityâ€"the different organizations of the village can all claim her as a member.

The parents as well ‘as the children are to be given a free 1treatment with this in the near fut- ure as a preventative against diphth- eria.

One might say that reasonably priced power is necessary for the economical operation of newsprint, mining and countless other industries. It will be conceded Without argument that the investor in PUBLIC UTILITY securities in general and HYDRO-ELECTRIC securities in particular have been singularly fortunate in Canada. Not only have these securities proven to be a safe form of investment but in a great many cases they have shown the investor a hand- some proï¬t. This we believe has been caused by the fundamental characteristics of the business. In the ï¬rst place they are selling a product for which there is a universal and ever increasing demand; their business is on a cash basis and there are no inventories to write down, and in the case of straight hydro-electrics there is little or no labor, consequently they are relieved from any labor difï¬culties. The use of electricity is expanding so widely, that in our opinion, the future holds even more promise than the past. We recommend for investment ï¬rst mortgage bonds of the OTTAWAâ€"MONTREAL POWER 00., LTD., due 1949 to yield about 6%. These bonds are widely distributed and always in demand, and should the purchaser desire at any time to sell, there would be no delay in converting holdings into cash. lVRITE or PHONE 87.
