New Era Paint:«
L The New Era job was a good
job. It looked good and stayed
that way for more than five years,
defying the elements to attack the.
surface beneath.
But the cheap job always looked
cheap and didn't last three years.
It costs less in actual money
to paint well with New Era .
Paint (inside or out) than with any other paint made, because*8
New era Paint Is pure paint (every atom of it), spreads further
and lasts longer than common kinds.

WHAT IT MEANS
Many people do not know what a bank's Capital is for,
or the difference between a bank of little or no capital and
one with a large capital.
A BANK'S CAPITAL
Is the fund that protects the depositors from loss; therefore
the larger it is, the greater protection the depositor has.
This bank has a
Capital of $35,000.00
Surplus and Undivided profits - 53,000.00
Additional Stockholders Liability 36,000.00
A Total of $123,000.00
This means that we must lose $123,000.00 before our
depositors could lose a cent. This protection is for YOU.
When you think "Bank" think "Merchants and Planters
National."
