As the School
Closes.
Year
The friendships, the happy faces, the little incidents of
school life—these memories will grow increasingly tender
as the years roll by.
And future success, with its attendant happiness, depends
as in school on right association. A bank account started
early in life is a solid foundation upon which to develop
into permanent structures the dream castles of youth.
We welcome your account as the basis for a cordial bank-
ing friendship extending through the future years.
