BANK OF SEWARD
ESTABLISHED IN 190S
THE CHIEF Fl'NCTION of this bank is to receive money on deposit
and after withholding ample reserve to meet the day-to-day demands of
depositors, to loan the balance back again in the community to safe and
worthy customers; thus multiplying cash and credit, increasing the vol
ume of working capital, keeping open the channels of trade, and stimulat
ing commercial development.
Every dollar you deposit with your local bank adds an average of
one dollar and seventy-five cents to the working capital of the community
Every wise and public spirited citizen carries a bank account. Money
that does not work is as useless as a man who does not work.
