show our appreciation nnd encouragement to those who have had the work thus far in charge by organ izmg the various branches and showing that full use is going to be made of the facilities to morrow will he the first of november its not a bit too early to get these organizations under way immigration to canada this year from april 1 to august s 1929 which represents the first five months of the current fiscal year immi gration to canadu totalled 109 237 of this total 47235 were from the british fsles 18187 trom the united states 20107 fiom the countries of northern europe and 23618 from 2 other countries in the corresponding fjft months of last year the total was 112050 a decrease this year of 2 813 of three per cent in august of this year immigration to canada was 15022 of which d 181 were british 3414 united states 2370 from northern european countries and 3057 from all other countries tram april 1 to august 31 of this year 15 107 canadians who went to the united states intending to reside there per manently have returned to canada for permanent residence these are not included in the immigra tion returns the importunee of this movement is indicated by the fact that the number of returning canadians in five months exceeds thev total immigra tion for the month of august in it ankiner too much the acton municipal council hus undertaken and carried out successfully a lot of improvements this year the general feeling of the ratepayers seems to be that the town s business has been conducted very satisfactorily the councilsessions have been most businesslike and productive of good results all the work undertaken has been well supervised nnd tarried out their programme with the new arena building has been a busy one throughout the entire year and has taken much time and thought from its various njcmbcis several times during the year the plan of perpetual care tor tairview ceme tery has been mentioned hut the pressing need of other matters seemed always to sidetrack this prob lent and detinue steps have been withheld on this much desired plan of cure for our municipal ceme tery would it not be possible to arrange this item yet in the progtunnnc of uns years work with the town hall improvements carried on by the young peoples to operation the new arena being provided for youhg and middle aged and older ones with young ideas it would seem that with this final item or perpetual cure in i airview cemetery inaugurated this year the municipal ncil of 1929 would go down in history a one inaugurating and achieving results for all sections and ages of the communify hot has been attained by few o actons municipal bodies surely of course ibis body is a busy one comprised of busy men but there is un old saying that if you want a job done give it to a busy man is it asking too much of the council this year like other undertakings when once sturted we believe u lot of loyal help itiid to operation would be secured will the pcipefual caro pliin he

existence of a credit exchange that is in operation in kirkland lake othecsknqwing of it arcnot familiar unthits purpose and methods modern business demands its establishment in making use of ones credit at a banking institution a borrower is required to pro ducc ample security and references as to integrity in applying for life insurance the applicant must submit himself to close medical scrutiny all this is expected for risks in every case must be protected in retail business too the merchant should have some security for the credit extended he docs not demand much he asks only for a report on how the customer has met his obligations in the past the credit exchange supplies this report whether the mer chant accepts the customers business depends on that the total amount that one may be obligated for has no bearing on the matter it is the manner in which he meets payments due that is important on the other hand the merchant has to supply the wholesale houses with a history of his business dealing and he also has to pay his bills promptly in order to get a credit ratmg the progressive town to day is the one whose inhabitants pay their bills promptly and whose business men
