11 Do not draw it out for ten years. That is best. 11

THE SPIRIT OF 1917
It is the true American spirit, not a whit less
ardent that that of ’76.
It is the spirit that wins, that devotes all its
energy and effort to thje well-being of the
H nation. ||
On the battle-field, on the farm, in the shops
and marts of trade, it is everywhere asserting
itself.
And the Nebraska State Bank, in keeping ::
jj with this spirit, offers its services and its re
sources for the welfare of the nation and our
community.
We are strong and sound. We have ade
quate resources—which are at the command
of our farm brigade. We offer safety to the
thrifty and ample facilities for checking ac
counts and all banking transactions.
