THE OFFICIAL ORGAN OF CARROLL COUNTY AND CITY OF CARROLLTON
CARROLLTON, CARROLL COUNTY, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, JAN. 2T. 1910
BURGLARS BUSY: i
There are hundreds of robberies every day of
the year about which we hear nothing, but through
which people who are careless about money lose it.
That person who keeps his or her money in a
bank has but little fear from the holdup man or
the house-breaker. It ,is the man who carries
money on his persou that usually gets “touched.”
Your money, if deposited with this bank, will be
absolutely safe.
