Many people do not know what a bank’s Capital is
for, or the difference betwen a bank of little or no capital
and one with large capital.
A Bank s Capital
Is the fund that protects the depositors from loss;
therefore the larger it is, the greater protection the de-
positor has. This bank has a
Capital of...........A........... ............. .... .$50,000 00
Surplus Fund of....... ......... 20,000 00
Undivided profits................... 3,000 00
Additional Stockholders Liability............... 50,000 00
A Total of...............$123,000 00
This means that we must lose $123,000.00 before our
depositors could lose a cent. This protection is for YOU.
When you think “Bank” think “Peoples National.”

Visitors to the Bertram fair
have about all returned home,
and they report that the fair was
extra good for such a small place
and the racing was excellent.
These country fairs tend to bring
the places where they are held
before the public and also to de-
velop a desire to have the best
products of all kinds. The speed
and breed of horses, cattle, sheep
and hogs have been much im-
proved all over the world by the
fact that such annual exhibitions
are held. The Lampasas fair
has done much good f^^ % ;pas-
as and the surrounding'«; ,ntry,
and will do more as the years
pass.
Baptist Aid.
The call meeting of the Baptist
Ladies’ Aid Society was well at-
tended Thursday afternoon and
the hours were turned over to
business, strictly.
Delegates were appointed to
attend the convention at Fort
Worth on Nov. 10th, and were
namely: Mesdames H. Andrew,
W- H. Browning, J. D. Dorbandt
and W. R. Williamson. It was
decided to hold the Social Mis-
sionary meeting on Thursday
evening, November 5th at the
home of Mrs. Jeff Dorbandt and
on this occasion a splendid pro-
gram will be rendered and re-
freshments served. The public
is cordially invited to attend and
no admission will be chkrged.
There will be, however,' a free-
will offering box and those pres-
ent may countribute according
to inclination, the funds to be
used in foreign mission work.
The next regular session of the
aid will occur at the home of Mrs.
Ab Brown on November 12th
when Miss Myrtle Denson will
act as leader.

occupied by Mistrot Bros. & Co.,
will be for rent beginning January

ing Mistrot Bros. & Co., on the

Cotton picking proceeds all!
over this section, though pickers
are not so much in demand as |
they were a few weeks ago. The
crop will soon be out and then
attention can be turned to other
things.
A rate of $3.60 for the round j
trip to Dallas tomorrow will j
probably take a great crowd
from Lampasas to the fair, even,
if they do lose two nights’ rest, j
It is the lowest rate ever made
for such an occasion.
The best flour made—White ,
Crest. j
Wheat sowing should be at-
tended to at once, as the season
advances. The present low |
price of cotton is largely due to
the fact that so much of it has
been raised, and the present high '
price of wheat is due to the scar-!
city of bread stuff. Bow wheat!
and sow plenty. The soil is in
fine condition for the reception of;
the seed, and it will yet make j
some good winter pasture.
