BANK WITH US AND SAVE YOUR MONEY
^ BANK ACCOUNT is the one sure friend
to whom you can go when you are in need
of ready cash.
The man with money in the bank has
confidence in himself, and that self con-
fidence spurs him on to greater successes
in life.
Start the New Year RIGHT. Open an
account with us.

THE beginning of the new year is a fitting time for the
extending of special thanks to our customers for their
generous patronage during the twelve months that have
just past. Rut. that, friends, does not do justice to our state
of appreciation.
Thankfulness to our customers is a daily habit with
us. It could not be o'herwise when we check up the business
of each day and note the liberality with which our friends
have accorded us their patronage.
We extend to you the greetings of the season, with
the earnest wish that the new year will deal gently and
generously with you.
