GARDEN PARTY A S1TCBSS
The Garden Party given by the lad
ies of the Catholic church last night
was a very successful affair consider
ing the weather conditions. The pre
vious night it rained and the ground
1: st night was damp but those who at
tended had a good time and did not
mind the soft ground. Chances were
sold on various articles, there was ice
cream and cake, coffee and doughnuts
and a fortune teller also made good.
The grove looked very pretty with
lanterns hanging here and there.

What Is Your Idea
f a Bank?
The following is our idea of what a
bank ought to be and what this bank’s
fixed policy is.
We cater to no one class. We serve no
special interest. We seek only the legitr
mate’banking business of all classes of
honest men in this community.
We are neither so big as to despise or
discourage small accounts, nor so small
as to accept undesirable business just
for the sake of more accounts.
If you believe that this kind of a bank
ought to be your bank, come in and talk
it over.
You will receive every courtesy and
accommodation consistent with sound
banking.

u.e is a work and drill, or fight law. j
The government means just what the
law indicates, li means that men he

g ing to be called for active service,
they will work in certain industries
a id at tlu* same time drill to be able
.< take care of the country when those

The Seward Home Guards will be
