Youth is the time to prepare for old age. Not much
use preaching to the young man so we will not at
tempt it.
The average young man thinks of the present. Not
one in ten has a definite aim in life, but the one out
of the ten today will be the wealthy, comfortably
fixed man of tomorrow. Young man, it is worth think
ing about if you would only do so. Old age will sure
ly come to you. Open a savings account at our bank
and you will never have cause to regret it.

Australia Lets Down
Barriers to Immigrants
Canberra. The depression has
been sufficiently overcome in Aus
tralia to permit lowering of barriers
that were raised originally to pre
vent too great an influx of alien
job seekers.
According to official sources both
economic conditions and employ
ment on the island are normal.
With the lowering of the tempora
ry barriers that had been raised, all
aliens who desire to enter the island
for permanent residence will be per
mitted to do so when the necessary
permit is obtained.
Under the classifications govern
ing the latter, preference will be ac
corded dependent relatives of per
sons already residing in Australia
subject to a satisfactory guarantee
of maintenance from the latter; oth
er aliens nominated and guaranteed
by persons in Australia and who
have assured work or $250 landing
money; aliens without guarantors in
Australia who will engage in trades
and occupations and who have sl,-
