County Treasurer
Absolutely Competent
24 years a resident of this
county
15 years in the mercantile
business -
The relation between a bank and its depositors
should be as close and confidential as the re-
lation between good friends The reason is
that banking like friendship is founded on
Trust and Confidence
The depositor trusts his bank with his money
and a knowledge of his financial standing and
should receive in return from the bank the ut-
most assurance of security and good faith
