READY CASH
How many times has the lack of Ready Cash caused you
embarrassment? How many times has opportunity knocked
at your door, when you didn't h&ve the Ready Cash
to accept it?
When Sickness and Reverses cross your path, how nice it is
to have some Ready Cash. We are all architects of our own
fate, and the only way to have the Ready Cash, when it is
desired, is to provide for it when everything is going well,
by systematically saving your earnings.
' The only successful way to do this is to place it in the bank,
where it can always be found when you want it, and where
accurate records are kept, and vvhere your checks serve as
receipts. This bank solicits your savings, and will pay you
interest on them. Call and let us explain.
Deposits in This Bank Are Fully Pro-
tected by the State Guaranty Fund

Saturday was fire prevention
day throughout the -United
States, but in many places it
passed without mention, though
in some places it was noted by
fitting programs. The day com-
jmemorates the great Chicago
j fire 50 years ago, and instruction
j to children and others is sup-1
posed to be given along those!
| lines which go to make for fire
'prevention. The week previous
to the day can well be spent in
' cleaning up and Removing, tarsh
j weeds, etc. which are so easily
set afire in the fall of the year
when dry. The annual loses from
fire in our country amount to
$350,000,000 in property and 25,-
000 persons.
Gate has been doing consider-
able e'eaning up of weeds and
rubbish, but there is still chance
for the good work to go on. Let
fire get started and with practi-
good sermon, and your merchant
