TO OUR CUSTOMERS
AND FRIENDS
The President of the United States,
as usual, is right when he tells us that
now is the time to pay up and get out of
debt.
In some instances, however, it can
benefit to make a reasonable debt. It
might even help one to get out of debt.
Farmers who have the feed and not
sufficient cattle and hogs, might profit
by incurring some debt to acquire cattle
and hogs for re-sale.
By paying cash, considerable savings
are sometimes available.
Other similar circumstances may,
and frequently do, exist that would justi
fy the incurring indebtedness.
This bank desires to co-operate with
you in this saving and in making money
for yourself. It has the money to lend
when sufficiently secured. It invites you
to confer with its officers about your
needs and problems.

a better job, they are really traia-
Ing for victory.
It is difficult for any foreman,
workmah, or unskilled laborer to
spend his spare time reading and
studying, especially after he has
put in a day of hard work. It is
that extra margin of effort, how
ever, that will spell the difference
between victory and defeat in this
war. The enthusiasm for the job
cannot be doubted when a man goes
home in the evening and spends his
leisure hours with a book that tells
him how to be a better foreman or
how to do his job in a more ex
pert manner.
There is nothing glamorous or ro
mantic about study as such, but the
ambitious individual sees far be
yond the pages of print into the
work of the next day when he may
approach a task with greater knowl
edge and confidence. He is more
certain of himself and his place in
the world. V f

Tractors and motors will never
wholly replace the Army Mule as a
factor in the mobile units of our
army. The Army Mule is a tradi
tion and the “mule skinner” is a
breed unto himself. Army Mules
are used by the Field Artillery’and
the Cavalry in areas where the
terrain is rough and tractors cannot
operate.
Hit-/
Pack trains in mountainous sec
tors are often necessary and here
the mule, slow but sure-footed, plays
an important role. Our Army buys
thousands of mules paying from $175
to $l9O for each. The mule eats
less, carries more, and some de
clare is smarter than the horse.
Your purchase of War Bonds and
Stamps helps pay for these Army
Mules. Invest at least ten percent
of your income in War Bonds every
pay day. V. S. Trtuury Daartment

Hitler found out that his high pow
ered mechanized and motorized
army bogged down in the snow and
mud of the Russian Winter. Al
though our Army is largely mecha
nized the cavalry horse is still a
highly essential factor in this mount
ed division and in the Field Artil
lery. The Army also maintains re
mount farms where many cavalry
horses are bred and raised.
These select horses cost from SIOO
to $165 and our crack cavalrymen
are expert riders and carry on the
traditions which have followed the
cavalry from the earliest days of
the Army. Purchase of War Savings
Bonds will insure good mounts for
the Cavalry. You and your neigh
bors buying War Bonds and Stamps
regularly every pay day can help
buy these horses for the U. S.
Cavalry. Invest at least 10 percent
of your income in War Bonds.
