To The Depositor
NATIONAL BANKS FAIL. When
they do depositors lose heavily. Why?
Because deposits, in National Banks
are not guaranteed. !
STATE BANKS FAIL. When they
do depositors are paid in full. Why?
Because deposits in State Banks are |
protected by the Depositors Guarantee
Fund of the State of Nebraska.
THE NEBRASKA STATE BANK
OF O’NEILL is the only Bank in
O’Neill which offers you this pro
tection.
You will protect yourself and please
