The lesson of money saving is best learned by
opening a bank account.
ONCE STARTED YOU HAVE AN INCENTIVE TO BETTER HABITS
AND THE IMMENSE SATISFACTION OF A RESERVE AGAINST
ADVERSITY. ASIDE FROM THE FACT THAT YOUR MONEY
WILL BE SAFE FROM THEFT AND FIRE, IT ALSO AFFORDS
A CONVENIENT METHOD FOR THE PAYMENT OF
BILLS; AND AS THE CHECKS ARE ALWAYS PRE
SERVED AND RETURNE D TO YOU, THEY
SERVE AS RECEIPT S FOR AMOUNTS PAID.
The truest friend in time of adversity is a bank
account.
WE WANT YOUR ACCOUNT, AND YOU TO CALL THIS -, YOUR
BANK;” TO HAVE YOU FEEL INTERESTED IN ITS GROWTH AND
WORTH IN THE COMMUNITY. PARTICULAR ATTENTION DEVOTED
TO OUT OF TOWN ACCOUNTS SENDING DEPOSITS BY MAIL.
