•- j . \ I I i I W. F. MARSHALL, B41tor mm* Proprietor. j VOL. XXVII. The Citizens National Bank of Gastonia _t__ SAVINGS DEPARTMENT In connection with our Bank we have organized a Savings Department to provide a safe and prof itable place for the earnings of all persons In either small or large amounts. Deposits of $1.00 and up will be received, and a pass book given with the amounts entered there in, upon which Interest at the rate of 4 PER CENT COMPOUNDED QUARTERLY will be paldl We earnestly Invite you to open an account In our Savings Department, promising that you will receive every courtesy and consideration. Our en tire resources of something over $300,000.00 will be a guarantee that your funds will be safe when deposited with us. FACTS TO BE REMEMBERED r ■ ’HE HEN who arc rich today, were in nine cases oat of ten, poor is early life. Their earnings were at 6rst very small, bat their expenses were still less; the diBerence was care folly saved, deposited in some safe place, made to yield interest, and thus foundations were slowly sod securely laid for large accu mulations. It is in this way that the money has been raised to pay for com fortable dwellings owned and occupied, in so many cases, by the industrious, sun-brassed and hard-handed artisans and farmers of our State. "Lock.'* "good fortune” sod -good stars" have had much leas to do with it than many Imagine. When a man be gins to spend less than he makes, his "good fortune” begins, bis "lack" favors him, sod his "star" looks smilingly down upon him. Banks are admirably calculated to produce such results. When one has money by him he is constantly tempted to spend it for articles not absolutely necessary, and is often induced to invest it in luxuries and amusements absolutely pernicious. If, however, he every week or every month deposits it in n bank it wilt, like a plant* in a garden, increase sad multiply when he sleeps, and grow iron year to year—a comfotCco him when well; his dependence and support in sick ness sad in the decline of life, end per haps. ultimately after his death the means of saving his wife and children from want and wretchedness. It is generally a multitude of small expenditures that keep men poor, so it is the small savings that make them rich. The little coral insect slowly bat surely lays the foundations for islands sad con tinents. Apparently, insignificant means produce all the vast results of art and nature. The same law prevails in se curing a competency or accumulating a fortune. The cents soon become dollars, the dollars speedily Increase to hun dreds, the hundreds to thousands, sad thus In n fsw years, without much effort, the poor and perhaps friendless young man becomes rich, and wields that influ ence and power which money always commands.
