THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE WEDNESDAY, ITAT i, 1928 ^* â- h A ^: AN ESSENTIAL OF MODERN LIFE Banking service is one of the essen- tials of modern life. It assiiBts in th production of every article and in the transportation of every commod ity. Wishout it, distributon would be ^possible. Yet Banking fun- ctions so smoothly that we are scarce- ly aware of our dependance upon it. By taking Banking Service for granted we pay our greatest tribute to its efficiency. Aach year an in- creasing number of depositors and clients affords evidence of the char- acter of Service offred by the Stc • dard Bank of Canada. mE STANDARD BANK OF CASAIA ^ESTABUSHED IVV E. A.

Mollet Snagging in River at Thornbory Last Friday and Saturday the Ed- itor enjoyed a trip through the beaut- iful Beaver Valley to Thornbury and spent a few hours attempting to catch some mullet that abound in the river there at this time of the year. In order to procure them a person has to have a long line and a couple of drag hooks and sneak the line up be- hind the fish when it's back is turn ed and not looking, and snag it be- fore it gets wipe. However, we were not smooth enough in th*! op- eration, and only suceeded in secur- ing two, but no doubt the small boys were delighted with the purchases we made in order to Impress the folks at home with our success. We made a very pleasant call on the Ramage brothers, editors of the Review-Her- ald there, and sons of the editor of the Durham Review. They are doing well in Thornbury and issue a very interesting paper. A Birthday Party The birthday party of Mrs. M.

The ladies were not idle as two quilts were quilt- ed and the proceeds go to mission work. The meeting was called to order and Mrs. B. was asked to be seated, when Rev. Saund- ers read an address and Mrs. Akitt, President of the Aid, presented Mrs. Badgerow with a basket of beaut- 1 iful flowers.
