Uuslncss men nro prouo to think of Jho young man they havo Been graduato from pantaloons to long trousorB, as tho mischief-making kid they had known so long. To trust ono of theso with responsibil ity Is exceptional on tho pnrt of most business men. Yet theso samo buslnoss men, In tholr homo town, at ono tlmo, wore vlowcd with tho samo suspicion of lack of responsi bility, and perhaps, Just as Justifi ably BO. Young men who havo grown up In a community aro hottor ablo to toko a place In developing n town than thoso who drift In for thu roason that they nro equipped with a knbwlodgo of tho country find Ub resources. Their acquaintance with the peoplo Is an asset that any bus iness house should bo glad to add to It organization. Tho homo town boy should bo giv en n chanco to mako good In tho buslnoss world. Tho comumnlty which malntnlns schools for tho edu cation of Its youth Is throwing tiway largo Investments when after train ing Us boys and girls It lets them go to glvo tho benefit of that train ing to othor towns. Havo you ever stopped to think what you could do to help some homo town boy or girl to get a start In llfo? Tho noxt tlmo you ongngo noniu ono to work for you, look around and seo whothor or not thoro Is not an Ontario boy or girl who can fill tho placo. Xv The Savings Club We Pay 5 per cent Interest Compounded Semi-Annually Is it not surprising that some persons, de spite many bitter experiences, continue to fritter away every cent of their earnings. Especially when it takes such little effort 1o insure oneself against the many unexpected and often embarrassing pre dicaments that confront us all. The Savings Habit is easily acquired, once you determine to guard against. ndversisy; and after it is acquired, sacrifice becomes a pleasure. If you don't know the satisfaction of being backed by a casli reserve you are missing one of the greatest pleasures and comforts to be had. Protect yourself against adversity.

Ontario National Bank NO HKASON IXMt UKHPONDHNCV To hear sonio folks talk about business conditions, ono would think that thoso aro Btrango times Indeed, such ns novor before visited tho peoplo of America. Hut that is not so. A century ago conditions wore far worso than this, so vastly worso that comparison Is Inept In deed. Atfldo from business depression which visited tho peoplo then, fol lowing tho war of 1812, tho coun try was rent with Internal dlsson tlon. Then Amorlca was a nation In tho making. Tho great battlo which for years had waged hotwocn tho ndvocntcs of Stato's rights and thoso of Nationalism was stilt pend ing and business ovorywhoro was retarded by tho uncertainties of nnd' posltlvo hlnderauccs which prevail ed. About that tlmo too, tho national curroncy was depreciated, through tho fiascos of stato banks nnd tholr gross abuses. Posltlvo and flagrant usurpation of power nnd business chlcauory woro tho rulo whllo tho conflict of laws wcro a 'positive handicap to honesty. Yet Ameri ca survived nnd out of tho turmoil cm no a better nation. Ono has not to turn back tho pages of history oven hnlf a cou ntry to road therein reflections of luminous depressions far worso than the temporary maladjustment to which wo aro at present subjected Many who aro still In tho vigor of manhood and buslnoss activity havo wonthcrod tho storniB of 93. to '00 ns well ns tho financial panic of '07, when clearing houso certificates took the placo of government cur roncy, nnd wo had "black.
