Most people think of what a dollar will buy, but the prudent man or woman thinks of what a dollar will earn. It is the earning ppwer of money that makes men rich. If men had to depenaVupon their per sonal earning power alone, thews would be no millionaires. It has been well said that no man can earn a million dollars during his life time. But the man who earns a dollar and sets that dollar to work earning more money will be rich. The greatest trouble with moat peq pie comes when they undertake to set their dollars to work. Because a man can earn monev. ia no assurance ithat he knows how to invest money. ' When money Is lost, all is loaf-both the moo. y and the money that money earn. A perfectly safe and sure way of us ing surplus money is to deposit it with the New Bern Banking & Trust Com pany of New Bern in a Savings Ac count, yielding interest at tbe rata of 4 per cent per annum."
