MILSTED Telephone Gormley 5201 GORMLEY NEWS “Fifteen months later we decided to obtain cheaper rental accommodation outside Toronto. A car, however, erally took the holes out of doughnuts. One of us was able always to be with the children, two of whom were not then of school age. _ Like most newcomers to Canada, Mr. Janvrin had only enough capital when he arrived to get himself settled, and eventually he found himself short in meeting the final pay- ment on his car, which was essential in his new job as a salesman. So he talked over his problem with his B of M manager, who considered him a good enough risk to advance him the money he needed. > But let Mr. Janvrin continue the story in his own words: “I mention this because bankers are sometimes charged with being little more than moneylenders and usurers, but in this instance, I knew that the Bank of Montreal was acting as it were on behalf of the people \of Canada in helping me to get established in much the same way as in pioneer days the Bank of Montreal must have-advanced funds‘ to immigrants to purchase seed, a few implements and maybe a team of horses. FIVE YEAR§ AGO, shortly after his arrival in Canada with his wife and three children, Mr. Janvrin had occasion to cash a cheque at his local B of M branch in Toronto. “Although I had told the manager that I was just an im- migrant," he recalls, “he invited me to open an account, and it was gratifying to me to feel that my confidence in the future of Canada was reciprocated by the Bank of Montreal. Two or three weeks later I opened an account at that branch.” JUNIOR. TRAFFIC COP Adult dignity won’t suffer at all if grownups obey the traffic sig- nals of the school patrol. These youngsters are there to protect not only their schoolmates but al- so the motorist from accidents. The law demands that the driver come to a stop when so instructed by the patrol. It will be a good example to the small fry if the adult pedestrian is just as co- operative. The Sr. W.M.S. meeting was, held on Wednesday afternoon at the home of Miss Ruth Hoover.
