Joint ac- counts are primarily for covenience of depositors, but where two people are bound together by common inter- ests, the moral, as well as the prac- tical value of working together-, plan- ning their financial betterment with the aid of a joint bank account is clearly evident. The Standard Bank solicits your joint savings account. STANDARD BANK OP CWKAJ3/>k. FLESHERTON BRANCHâ€" C. T. Batty, Manager I s I CJP.R.

FISHING IN HYDRO UKE AT EUGENIA OPEjTTHIS YEAR? It is rumoured, but on good au- thority, that the public will be allow- ed to fish in the big hyaro pond at Eugenia this summer. It is also stated that boats will be allowed on it. The fishing rights are to be al- lowed within a certain diistance of j the island game preserve. i Great quantities of trout fry have 1 been placed in this pond by the De- I partment of Game and Fisheries from 1 Nipigon and other points within the province and fishing should be good but there are those who think that it will prove disappointing. It is thought by those who hold this view that the great quantity of decaying wood and vegetable matter contain- ed in the pond have been fatal to piscatorial life. We hope this view will prove erroneous and that some good sport -will result when the res- trictions of the past have been re- moved. For some years the question of re- opening the lake for fish has been advocated and much discussion has Mr. Elmer Ellis of Kimberley is 'taken place there-to, but no action the proud possessor of a Registered could be secured.

Hold Thankofffering Meeting The Easter Thankoffering held in St. John's church last Thursday was well attended, members being present from the Baptist Circle, Chalmer's auxiliary, and Inisitioge. The presi- dent, Mrs. Cargoe, occupied the chair After the devotional exercises, in which several members took part, Mrs. Blackburn and Mrs. Richardson sang, "I sing Because I'm happy." Mrs. Jack Perkins also favored the audience with a solo, and Mr. Leon- ard, who with Mr. Clementte, had come from Inistioge, tendered two solos most expressively. Mrs. W. H. Thurston gave one sole reason why we should give a thankoffering at Easte* for the cause of misfeions, namely our love for God who gave his son for us. Mrs. (Rev.) Preston carried greetingrs from the Circle and Miss MacMillan from Chalmer's aux- iliary. The speaker of the day was Mi's. S. Breese of Chatsworth, who has been District Sui>erintendent of the Methodist W. M. S. Mrs. Breese is of a very pleasing personality, speaks distinctly, and knows her subject from A toZ, though she says there are a few letters she misses. She spoke about the stations which have come into the United Church from the three denominations represented, and gave a sketch of the manner of work each iS endeavoring to do. The address was interesting and timely. Mrs. Murray gave a recitation en- titled, "Mary," in a most acceptable way. Lunch was served and a social time spent. The Thankoffering am- ounted to over fifty-five dollars. The L 0. B.
