THE WOMEN
If you would send your
clothes to the Snowflake Laun
dry—PHONE 591—one time
and just see for yourself* how
much better the work is done
than when done by old methods
—with all the bother cut out—
and figure accurately the cost
of both—you would certainly
patronize the laundry. We call
for and deliver your work
promptly. Use soft water, mild
chemicals and Ivory Soap, with
a clean modern plant. We have
an expert laundryman who per
sonally inspects all articles com
ing in and going out insuring a
delightful service.

CLIPPING THE
WINGS OF YOUR
IDOLLARS
“DOLLARS HAVE WINGS”
That is an od saying that has come to lie
accepted without question. In fact something of
this spirit seems to lay hold of some men from the
beginning. This type of man is sure that ‘‘dollars
have wings” that he is “licked before he starts.”
We don’t see as many poultry yards now as we
used to see: but most, of us remember what happen
ed to the old hen that persisted in flying over the
fence. In spite of her squawking the feathers of one
wing were clipped, and thereafter she was a law
abiding biddy. Law-abiding perforce, perhaps—
but nevertheless, law-abiding.
Dollars have wings—let us admit that.
Dollars are constantly escaping from the un
wary—flying away.
Through the exercise of vigilance, you can
make them fly your way.
But it really isn’t worth the trouble—if you fail
to clip their wings, once you have them!
There is no better way to clip the wings of a
dollar than to deposit it in a savings account,
promptly. They have a way of escaping from one’s
pocket; the fence around a checking account doesn’t
always hold them—but a savings account-well, a
savings accounts seems to have a way about it,
someway! Dollars stop their flying, once they have
been trained to go to a savings account.
It is well worth trying, when one stops to con
sider that a savings account in this bank earns in
terest at four per cent, compounded each three
months.

MORE MILEAGE
FOR YOUR
•V ' f..V ’C
DOLLARS
The purchaser of an automobile considers the
number of miles a car will run to the gallon of gaso
line and quart of oil, when making his selection.
Many times the prospective purchaser decides in
favor of another car, when comparisons of fuel con
sumption have been made.
When a man equips his car with new tires, he
is careful to select those tires enjoying long mile
age reputation.
And yet— \
Too frequently that same man ignores the
possibility of giving his dollars more “mileage.”
If, by exercising a little forethought, the man
could add more than four per cent each year to the
lifetime of his tires, he would do it.
A savings account in any of THE UNION
TRUST CO., banks will yield four per cent interest
compounded each three months. Savings deposits
will double themselves in approximately seventeen
years. This is almost equal to six per cent simple
interest. (Simple interest, at six per cent, doubles
itself in sixteen and two thirds £ears.)
By carefully watching your idle money, and
depositing in a savings account, you can add more
mileage to your dollars.
The difference is worth saving!
