In the Trenches
The wise soldier in the field of battle digs him-
self a trench, and throws up a barrier to protect him-
self from the enemy, and provides himself with every
possible device to withstand a siege.
The \yise man in every walk of life entrenches
himself in a bank account and builds up a financial
barrier between himself and possible mis fortune and
reverses. This bank invites every man to shelter his
family in this "financial fortress" where they will be
safe and secure from want, privation and poverty
and where the arrows of misfortune cannot penetrate.

we give them the few words of

Do we not sometimes proffer

I Suppose we hold a little private

these questions. Let us each—

cairy our outdoor courtesies and
