THIS bank pays ESPECIAL ATTENTION to accommodating:
TREASURERS of fraternal orders, clubs, social organizations, etc.
Usually such officers hold complimentary positions. They are ex

BOOKKEEPING is a BOTHER or a WORRY. Treasurers who bank

H&t Of tern
Will you find as complete a line
of SHOES carried in the small town as you
will find in our store. Our new styles for
fall have arrived and it's time for your new
pair, and you'll pay more for the same goods
at other places because we don't add clerk
hire and high rents to our prices.
Maybe you need something from
our catalogue. Remember our prices are the
same as all mail order houses, and when you
are sending your orders through us you are
taking no chances of inferior goods. We guar
antee them.
