F(‘UNDED before Canada had any currency of its own, the Bank of Montreal in the early part of the Nineteenth Century obtained authoriâ€" zation from the British Government to issue copper tokens for small change. Reproduced herewith are the two sides of the oneâ€"penny token of 1838 and of a "habitant" token of 1837. The obverse of the former shows a picture of the building used by the Bank of Montreal at that time, the obverse of the latter a tyzical farmer of Lower Canada, now Quebec. The reverse of both coins is the same, showing the arms of the city of Montreal. Throughout its long history, the Bank of Montreal has always been active in serving the financial needs of the people of Canada, steadily extending its service as the need and opportunity for it arose. rlolstein Branch: C.

The car left the road, running at a long angl«e down an embankment between thrce and four feet deep, struck against a Hydro pole fully a foot in thickness and broke it cleanâ€"off by the ground. To the amazement of Pat Heany, who was an eye witness, the driver calmly opened the door and walkec out, not even shaken up, but cool‘ly awake. The truck was apparently none the worse and proceeded on its way. Pat is still wondering how the Hâ€" he ever got into the ditch widâ€" out upsetting.

The wrecked auto was towed to Noble‘s garage, Durham, where it was left on the street until Sunday afternoon, then towed back to Owen Sound. Telephoning around the neignborâ€" hood, the constables were unable to| discover any trace of the occupants| of the car, but a search was lnsu:.u-: ted of all barns and outbuildings in | the locality. It was feared they !1ud% made a clean getaway, as the search around the mill or camp grounds, for | anyone injured, or in any building| proved fruitless .

He was | brought to Owen Sound and placed’ in gaol there to await trial Monday. | In police court before Magistrate A. D. Creason on Tuesday morning, in Owen. Sound, Clayton McCrae ana Wm. Duncan, both of whom were charged with the ° theft of a motor car, belongong to Dr A. B. Rutherâ€" ford, pleaded guilty, and each was given a term of 18 months certain in Ontario Reformatory at Guelph, wiin an intermediate sentence of 2 years, less one day. Both of the accused made statements to the police in connection with the affair, Duncan being placed under arrest some time on Monday. The story is that the two met on Saturday night at the corner of 3rd ave and 10th st., O. Sonna, and McRae suggested they go out and look for a car, but :t was some time before they found one with a key in it and it happened to be Dr. Rutherford‘s. They released the braie and pushed the car around the corâ€" ner, and with McRae at the whoet, started for a drive round the city and then went out the Garafraxa Rd. At Chatsworth they bought some gas and a bottle of pop, as they had some alcohol in their possessiur, they â€"mixéed it with the pop and drank it. After leaving Chatsworth, Duncan wanted to go back, but McRae meâ€" murred, and Duncan finally got out of the car and walked back to Owen Sound,; arriving there at 3 a.m. Mcâ€" Rae drove on till he came to grief and then went on to the churen :o sleep, where he was found and ar rested. McRae was also fined $50 and costs, or in default of payment, 3 months in jail, on a charge of havâ€" ing an offensive weapon on his perâ€" son. The sentence will run concur rently. McCrae denied any knowledge ol the car or the accident, and said he was on his way to 0. Sound from Pt Colborne. When searched he had in his possession a revolver which was not loaded, nor was there any amâ€" munition to be found on him. There was some blozd on his ear and on one side of his face, the presence of which he could not explain to the police.
