The Correct Viewpoint
Many have a mistaken idea that it is because people
are prosperous that they have Savings Accounts.
Prosperity in connection with savings is the effect rath
er than the cause. The individual who practices Thrift,
who little by little builds a surplus and with it character
and reputation does not wait for prosperity he makes it.
We invite you to join the ranks of those who are insur
ing their future welfare.
