. f OTM LETTERS
HOW TO WRITE THEM.
If yoa have a mailing list to
wbich you are sending' advertising
r -fatter at intervals, it is best to have
; this advertising matter at ; intervals,
; it is best to haya this advertising
& matter accompanied' by some form
of letter; at least, sometimes.
People read a circular letter frpm
: ; a bank with more care and interest
than such a letter from an ordinary
' ; business concern. If . the letter is
, forcibly written and is printed in
. exact i duplication of tyepewriting,
; ; the average reciptiient will regard it
as a personal .letter -from the bank,
. ; , and will give every paragraph of it
studious attention. '
- In preparing copy for a' form leU
ter to be sentjo your whole list, try
: - to rid your mind of; the ! idea that
V jou are writing advertising matter
Doht get up such a letter unless
' you have something to say. t A good
; rway to get on the right track- and
stay there is to single out some young
? . man of tne neighborhood who has
: never had experience with a bank,
and dictate a letter to him the
kind of a letter that should influence
him to come in and open an account
Read that letter over after it gets
cold, and the probability is that you
V- will nave ah excellent form for ue
on the' whole list. Certain additions
and modificatiotis may suggest them
'sel ves to y du , but the ground woi k
i will.be there, and it will be good. J;
You can send 500 Of your, letter
" heads to xthe' publishers cf Bank
Notes, with copy of your form letter,
and 500 duplicates will be made by
f the silk-ribbon, process, to match
;A your typewriter, for $3.5uT You can
then have the names filled, in on
jour own machine, and an expert
cannot tell the difference between
your typewriting and the : work, m
the body of the letter. " '
i One of the best form letters we
fhive seen Utely is one sent out by
tne First National Bank of Dunkers
: ton, Iowa. It gives a j great f deal of
; practical information for j those whp
are" not very familiar with banking.
A State or private bank using this
as a model; may change the third
paragraph to; refer toj 'Atate super
v ;wibn,V responsibility etc, -
' Itot long ago it was thought that
a bank account was i only ;-for the
rich. Today it is b. comings a Vcon
' - venience and almost a; necajity for
all those who would nse;their ihoney
Hin, a systematic aad ' careful ; way V ;
; If you have not already -started
one, permit us to. mention ,:few of
:its advantages. -t -.-- Y-Ji: ; "
' ; First, yuur money is "safer in a
- . Dank than in "yonr- house. In addi
tion to the face thatiweVre a State
5 Bsnk and ttyis nnder the careful
inspection of the State, bur. safety is
furtherlncreased byi the use of burr
glar-rproof safes, "and by , insurance
1 against fire and burglary, , ; : ;
But while most people now admit
that a Dank account ; is safer than
r the pocjsetbook-lnt i ,hbme not so
v many realize that iL is alsdLinuch
more .convenient. '
V7hen yon start ; ah account , we
enter your depc:it in 0 pi:2book, and
1 .
Branch Stores Oxford , N. O., South Boston, Va., and Ghase City,' Va.
give it to you as your receipt. We
also giye you a check book,; ana
when you wish to pay any one,' all
you have to do is to writer him out a
check. Thus you can avoid carrying
money garound with you, and you
will bif able to buy if you 'should
forget your;pocletD00k,-? as all that
you heed is a- piece of . paper, and
you can write-a check wherever you
may be. "
The party to whom you give - it
can get it cashed at banks or stores,
but muse first sign his name on the
backjof it. So, if he should evec
deny haying received the money.
you can refer to -your checks which
we will f requen tly return to ' you
and prove by his signature that you
had paid it Thus a check is a re
ceipt to yon: , -,
If you. become a regular deposi
tor inja bank, you will never regret
it. It will give voir a standinjpn the
community and in the bank; it will
help you, to keep your accounts more
systematically; and best tf alUit
will encourage the habit of saving
How mucn we spendf or trifles which
we would lay up if we only had a
convenient place to put it! We offer
yp'u such a place, and will help ycu
to save. ,
Do not think that because you
may have only a fen dollars you
will not be given as courtepu at
tention as those who have more. We
want YOUR account, however small
it may be.
You are cordially invited to call
at this bank at any time, and we
will talk over these matters - and ex
plain more fully how to keep an ac.
count; Dovnot wait until -you f have
a larger sum, -but remember that the
first secret of saving vis to begin ai
once, I ana the second is ? to keep
