SAFETY FIRST
Is This a State Bunk? This is ;i question
that is frequently heard in the hanks of Oklahoma.
The reason is that cautious depositors seek every
protection for their funds.
The Hennessey State Hunk lias all the pro-
tection offered by other banks through efficiency of
office, jjublcation of statements, examined by duly
authorized officers of the Banking Department. In
addition to this we have the additional protection
of the Guaranty Law which absolutely protects
the depositor against loss in case of failure.
The failure of the Mercantile National Bank at
Pueblo, Colorado recently only emphasizes the ne-
cessity to the depositors of banks of a Guaranty
Law. The bank had a Capital Stock of $250,000.00
and Deposits of $1,500,000.00, but the amount of
loss cannot be ascertained for several months.
