Ind
ependence comes
with confidence in the surroundings. The man
who has a good farm is confident he has a good
living, and this man will gain further by hav-
ing a nice balance to his credit in our bank.
Confidence begets stability of character, incites
industry and encourages thrift.
MAKE OUR BANK YOUR BANK
Be self-confident, industrious, saving and
thrive. The fact that you have some cash not
really needed, will be an incentive to accumu-
late larger sums. We will be glad to assist
those who desire to become independent
through the proper channels.

improvement of the country
where we all live.
