Opportunities
Opportunities for men of character are not hard to tind. A
bank account, is an evidence of character and a bank book show-
ing regular deposits is the-passport to opportunity and the key
to success. Enroll yourself as a depositor and become a member
of the “Opportunity Club.” Don’t forget that the bank account
is the tirst step toward success and fortune; protects your
family in emergencies; educates your children; makes you in
dependent; gives you a standing in the community; is a valu
able aid in > any enterprise undertaken anywhere by anybody,
under any conditions. One dollar will start a bank account with
us. Why not begin today and have at least one of your idle
dollars drawing interest and at work while you sleep.

J. T. Sloan and A. C. Hunsucker
were summoned to Tecumseh
Monday to answer to a charge of
having violated the prohibition
law. These young men have
been selling cider in Asher, and
the summons to appear at Te-
cuuiseh is evidently the outcome
of jthe recent court of inquiry
held here. They were placed
under bonds of $500 each for ap-
pearance at trial some time in
October. The bonds were ex-
ecuted and the boys returned
home Monday.
