About Your Future
Do you know anything about it? Have you
any idea what is to become you when old age
creeps on you, or in case some sickness or acci
dent should be visited upon you?
If you have given the matter much thought,
you have certainly determined to do the right
thing by yourself--to judiciously lay aside a part
of your earnings. If you have not done this, you
had better do so now. If you are an intelligent
man or woman, you will give the matter serious
consideration.
We hope that this consideration will lead to
your opening an account with us. $l.OO opens
an account.
