The amount you spend for clothes
oesn’t matter so much as the way you
ake care of them. Keep them in re
pair and have them cleaned and press
ed regularly.
Hard on them? Bless you, no. It’s
goc/d for them. It’s only neglect that’s

Can We Count On
Your Cooperation?
rilKstmitftli of this bank is the
work of many hands. Our depositors,
perhaps more than ourselves, are re
sponsible for the prestige and steady
growth, which we have enjoyed.
What one friend has told another
friend about the treatment received
here, lavs been the all-important factor
in gaining for us a constantly widening
circle of influence and service.
After all, a bank is strong not mere
ly because of its capital and resources,
the wealth in its vaults; but also be
cause of the number of active, inter
ested friends which it can number on
its “roll-call.”
Therefore, we want you not only to
do your banking with us, but if you can
induce a friend to bank with us as well,
you will be favoring us doubly. Can
we count on this cooperation?
