"I Couldn’t
Do Without My
Check Book
“I’d feel lost without my check book,” a
business man said. “It’s like the woods-
man’s blazed trail or the captain’s log
of the sea. I can tell bow things are going
with me financially.
“Every important item of expenditure
is shown on the stubs of the check book.
I pay bills quickly and without effort.
No time or money is spent getting money
orders. There is no worry about paying
bills a second time. My cancelled checks
take care of that.
“I can tell you there are a good many
conveniences that I’d rather give up than
give up my check book.”
