nection with the killing of a Logan

advisability of summoning more wit

days and two weeks at first Indica-

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES, Ont, June
14-Buried beneath the waters of the
river Wye for more than 800 years,
the long lost treasure box of the
Jesuit mission to Maronia has been To-
Gated at last by the needle of a mag
netic diving rod. 1t lies beneath 20
feet of water and mud Divers are
starting to raise it. Just what the
box will show when it is brought TO
light is a matter of conjecture, but
the needle shows that it contains solid
gold in great quantities This treas
ure is verified by the Society of Jes-
uits, which shows that many of the
seven big boxes brought into New
France in the year 1860 and laborious-
ly carried to Fort Saint Marie by
canoe were lost and never recovered.

Banks Too Friendly
| Banks are becoming too friendly in
! their advertising C. H Randeroon,
a bank publicity manager of Cleve
land, Ohio, told financial advertisers
at the convention.
Personally l am inclined to believe
that the less we speak of our friendly
service and courteous treatment, the
better" said Mr.. Handeroon for the
very mention of it admits that per-
haps we might be criticised for lack
of it.
Let us endeavor not to advertise
bank services at all, but TO advertise
the satisfaction to be derived from the
use of these services" he added.
"Yet with all the criticism OF bank
copy, by an investigation which we
made through the aid of five trained
investigators in Cleveland, we found
that 81 per cent of our citizens read
newspaper bank advertising regularly
Seventeen and four tenths per cent
said they sometimes noticed it and
only fifteen and six tenths per cent
admitted that they never read it.
Factory employees were the largest
readers of bank advertising. Eighty
per cent of the downtown employees
admitted reading bank advertising
regularly and eighty per cent of them
had savings accounts fifty per cen,
checking accounts"
