What Is Your Idea j
Of a ank?
The following is our idea of what a
bank ought to be and what tills bank’*
fixed policy is.
We cater to no one class. V. e serve no
special interest. We seek only the legiti*
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
lxtnking.
