I WILLI AM DAWSON
William was left a small fortune. He began
H to live magnificently. He had no idea until he
;| came into his fortune how many friends he
|| had. In a few years time he had spent his
fortune and had accumulated considerable
11 debts. He and his friends had literally eaten 1
up his fortune. He had !no idea how few
■ | friends he had until he had spent his fortune.
If you have a small fortune keep it at this I
Bank and as long as you do so the world will k
go well with you and you will have a host of 1
friends. 1
C Every time you yield to the temptation §
to spend a dollar you weaken your will
to bank a dollar.

| It Helps Your Neighbors j
iToday all our affairs are so closely related that circumstances and
conditions which have a bearing on the welfare of your neighbors are
usually bound to have some effect on your own personal affairs.
§1 ■
H :
For example, if several farmers in the county were obliged to sell
their property at a sacrifice this would have a tendency to hold down the
jj price of your farm along with the rest.
On the other hand, if it becomes a subject of general talk that farms
11 in this vicinity are producing well and farmers and stock growers are
making money, you can see it helps the entire community. §j
Money deposited in the Bank by your neighbor helps you. WHY?
Because to a large extent the prosperity of a community is judged by
many business and financial interests by its general bank deposits.
If your county as a whole has a favorable reputation it benefits all
because it gives us a better credit standing and leads to business being
done on a more liberal basis which is bound to help each of us.
m in
It is pretty sound judgment to state that the Depositors' State Guar
antee Fund of Nebraska is having its effect for the general good of every
resident of the state.
■■ .a
The safety which it assures any depositor in a State Bank is bring
ing large increases in deposits to all banks under State Supervision.
That helps you and your neighbors. IS
