It termt proper tnd only fair that a word of tribute should be spoken new for the workers of the Baok. Banking in these ticjrt is a war industry co-operating with all other industries in pushing production, and bank staffs have many extra heavy duties in furnishing that co-operation. From the Dank of Montreal more than 1200 workers officers, clerks, attendants, he lpers have gone out 10 serve their country in the armed services, while numerous others loaned by the Bank are doing specialized work in various Government departments. MtDj extra burdens lave fallen on those men and women who have remained at their posts in the Bank, despite the best efforts of management to fill the ranks. Many new men and women employees have had to be trained and many old employees have patiently helped to train them. Through the longer hours and harder work, there has been a fine spirit of courage and cheerful, even enthusiastic, application to inctcascd detail. Customers tell us they doubly appreciate in these trying times the customary pleasant efficiency with which routine banking services are performed. The management of the Bank wishes publicly to thank the war-worker of our staff. BANK OF MONTREAL Gaoacs V. Smnkiv, CKC, butdtni S. C CfJVUU, Cfiural Hltr Prince Rupert Branch: G. O. S.
