Where Your Money f'
la Safe |
V*
i V; • • ‘
Or.e man earns a great deal more .han another. They are both hard
workers but the man who earns less has the ability to save a part of what
he makes and adds to it. The other just somehow cdnnot save, he lives easy
X
but it seems to take all he makes to live. The difference is in the ability to
• i
conserve, to save. In the end the man earning less accumulates more than
the large earning man. The best way to save is to deposit your money in a
strong bank and keep up with your spending; it will encourage you to save
and remember, all the men in the country who are successful and who have
money patronize the bank. We invite your accounts. Let us help you save.
Cordially yours,
President.
