Commercial and other loans at $220,990,000, are only nightly mall. er. This is in lino wi h the trend oi recent vears. in wh ch the need for banking accommodation has been substantially decreased. There is the isct also that many iii-ms engaged in peace-time pursuits. with much reduced production. are not now requiring the financial assistance needed in former years. Like commercial loans. call loans have shown some increase and now amount to 831036.000 as against 810310.000 in 1042. Government Holdings Elle Sharply As would be expected. the bank's holdings oi Government and oth- er securities have risen sharply and now stand at $700,462.00‘?! 00m- pared with 00823305000 s year ago. The bank's investment d170- iolio. as always. is made up in large measure of Dominion Gov- ernment and high-grads provincial and municipal securities which mature at early dates. In line with this is the increase in the bank's quickly available re- sources which amount to $1.035.- 610,000. being 83.81 per cent liabilities to the public. An in- crease oi nearly ll0.000.000 in these resources is recorded in cash on hand and money on deposit with the Bank oi Can da which together stand at $122. 7.000 as against $112,710,000. Notes oi.’ the bank in circula- tion show a reduction from 515.- 354,000 to $9,790,000. reflecting the trend which began some venrs ago when. under the terms oi re- vised banking llgislation, ihc chartered banks commenced tha gradual reduction of their note circulation in favour oi the Bank oi Canada. With total resources amountinl! t0 81.313.064.000 and liabilities in the public amounting to $1,235,- 031000. there is left an excess oi resources oi $77,433,000. This is comprised of the capital of $36,000,- 000 and res:rve iund. profit and loss account and reserve ior divi- dends totnllinr: $41,433,000. which together represent the sharehold- ers‘ equity in the bank. THE WKIRKMPULPIT L: z Preaching last evening on tlr: text “Think on these thinks" iPhil. 4:81 the Ministur, the Rev. Tl-l. Busscll Somers said: “Again I want you to consider this-how much of our unconscious irlilll- cllce lies in our thoughts.

Mr. aiceterlinck outs the matter in his own poetic way. He says. Thoueh you assume the face of a saint, a hero or a mar- tyr, the eye of the passing child will not qrcet you with the some lurk within you an evil thought." Now probably there is a little cx- aggeratlon there: on’: ihOiHht. not reveal itself. The totality o! saintly ChflrClCi‘ ls too great to be ovcrbornl: by till- intrusion of one shadow of the devil. But this is certain that by tile thounhts we harbour and let ourselves dwell upon and cherish in the dark. we touch and turn and influence our world ivlrcn we never dream that we are doing it. There is nothinz lliddcn that shall not be revealed- ivhat a dcntll there is in that one word of Jesus! He is not mcroly thinking of Gods judgment-bar tomorrow. He is thinking o! the undetected revelation of todav.
