What Is Your Idea
f a Bank?
The following is our idea of what a
bank ought to be and what tliis bank’s
fixed policy is.
We cater to no one class. We 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
banking.

The dance given last night by the

til early this morning and all those in
attendance voted that the officers and J
