LET YOUR MONEY HELP YOU WORK. The Windham City Savings Bank in Connecticut recently had a bank book brought in that they had not seen for nine teen years and on which no money had been drawn or de posited since 1371. In that year, SBOO was deposited. Com pound interest had increased the SBOO to $2,300—51,500 clear gain to the depositor, money he didn't have to turn his finger over for. This illustrates the wonderful power of compound interest. After you work for your money, your money works for you, if you put it in a good bank.
