STORIESOFSUCCESSj George W. Childs Not doing mere ly the work he was required to do but doing all he could and put ting his whol heart into it were the trait of char acter that early ruled the life and endeavor of the great Philadel phia publisher, philanthropist, and millionaire, George W. Childs. His first employment was in a book store, his income being only 60 cents a week more than his bar living. , He read good books, attended book salea at night to learn their market values, fixed his ambitioni high so that he might always bt tending upward, and at the end of four years had saved enough to start a book store of hi own. Saving is a good habit. It is a habit that will grow upon you and your happiness and peace of mind will grow with it. A savings account in this bank not only will give you influence and prestige, but it may give you the decisive lift at the decisive time. Ws pay 4 par cant lataraat WACHOVIA BANK A TRUST CO.

The membership has been increased about a third. The programs of the departments show that subjects and matters under discussion arc more con cise and are capable of being pro fitably studied, and discussed.

There exists, ot course, the so cial side which is very delightful, but the more serious activities are none the less evident.
