Most history books are too often merely statistical re- ports. the intimate and inter- esting stories regarding the ear- lier days are locked in your memories, and, only y0u can tell them. Please share them with us. We would also appreciate re- ceiving reports of your groups activities to be reprinted in this corner.

Your loan is life-insured at no extra cost. You get the other advantage of dealing with the inter- ested Scotiabank people. So talk over your money problem-whatever it is-- debt consolidation-a new car-with the people " your nearest Scotiabranch. They're ready and waiting to help you. aicC
