Some of the m( îation in charge and assisting Father Malane A On Hiistory of - Established in E An intcrcsting and informa- tive account of the aims and principles of the credit union movement was given to the Bowmanville Rotary Club mcm- bers at their meeting on Friday by Rev. F. K. Malane, who for the last three years bas been the Parish Priest of St. Joseph's Roman Catholic Church. Father Malane was introduc- ed by Rotarian Rev. T. Arthur Morgan who pointed out that he was born in Peterborough and studied there and in Kitchener and Toronto before being in- ducted into the priesthood. H1e had charges at Lakefield, Co- bourg and PetLrborough before coming oBwavle Father Malane stated that one frequently hears people assert that they have a right to live their own lives, and on the face of this it sounds very indepen- -lent and even noble. "Actually hiowever, this is a declaration of selfishness", he declared. "It means that the person making this statement is going to live selfîshly, disregarding the rights of others and bis responsibilities to them." He cited the hard-working mother, the soldier, the teach- er and the nurse, as examples of people who make great sa- crifices for others and whose lives are examples of service to their fellow man rather than the pursuit of selfish interests. An institution which exists primarily for helping others, Fataher Malane stated, is the credit union. In 1848 when the industrial revolution was mush- rooming in Eu~rope, the labor- ers were beind under-paid and exploited, and treated only as mechanical cogs in a mechani- cal machine of production. Three men in Germany; Wilhelm, Raiffienses and Scbulze won- dered what action could be tak- en to improve thleir lot, and as1 a result of their thought and study the first credit union was formed. This first credit union pro- moted thrift and enabled the laborer to help himself by build- ing up a credit of bis own and to help others like himsel! by lending money to them at very : low interest rates. It also was the first step in aduit education, as later credit unions sponsor- ed considerable work along this line. Started at Levis The founder of credit unions in North America was Alph- onse Desjardins, who started the first one in Levis, Quebec. 11e devoted the rest of bis life until 1920 in fighting to have the movement recognized by the government and to extending1 it in Canada and the United States. In 1906 credit unions were recognized by law in Que- bec and shortly after, under the regime of Earl Grey, they werý legallv recognized throug:hout Canada. Mr. Desjardins went to Bos- ton, Mass., in 1909 and organ- ized the first credit union in the United States in the face of considerable opposition frorn banks and trust companies wbo were in the business of lending money. From these beginnings the credit union movement bas ex- panded to the point where il now embraces 8,000,000 mcm- b ers in North America. There Siafford Bros.

At Port Hope there is a credit union with 550 members and capital of $100,000. "These credit unions func-1 tion as banks operated by the people to encourage thrift and provide credit when needed", Father Malane declared. "They are also a form of adult educa- tion. They teach members how to live their own lives, but in such a way that others benefit also. Credit unions are an avenue for helping others to help themnselves". The speaker was thanked for bis fine address by Rotarian Walter Reynolds. Oshawa Visitors Welcomed President George Moody wel- comed four Oshawa Rotarians as guests at the meeting.
