THE OPEK DOOR!
At this Bank the door to the officers' room
is always open, and this, in a sense, is
typical of the c-pirit which pervades the
entire place. Austerit3 that professional
coldness which one sometimes connects
with financial institutions, is forgotten
here in the general desire of every officer
lo meet the people of this vicinity as fel
low citizens and to serve their needs, re
gardless of whether they be little or large,
with courtesy and consideration.
If we can rerve you in any capacity do not
let the re!atire srnallness of your posses
sions prevent you from consulting us;
rather let it encourage you to do so.
If you wish to open a savings account our
facilities are at your command. Our ad
vice and experience are yours to draw
upon.
YOU'RE ALWAYS WELCOME HERE

THINK!-
i he headache isn't caused by thinking. It is be
cause you do not think and worry instead, that causes
those pains in your bean.
How man' pigs have you lost already this spring
because you didn't have a good place for them? You
didn't think you would need it, but you did. How many
more buildings and sheds do you need on the farm or
how many need repair or paint that are there now?
THINK!
If you will allow yourself to-think, you will soon
oecide you are losing big money trying to save a little.
Think it over.

Xew York. April 10. Haley Fiske.
nresident of The Met ronolitan Eife
Insurance company, and r. member j
of the executive committee of the i
.auoua) .-vssoi ia : ioii m 'iieis ui
Railway Securit ies. informed A. II.
Smith, president of the Xew York
Central railroad, in a letter today
jJia! some railronds are making a
mistake in Their attitude toward
labor. It wac in reply to Mr. Smith's
letter to S. Davie1? Yv'arrield. president
of the association, taking exception
to the position of the association's
executive committee in conferring
with representatives of railroad i;.
pioyes. "Your assumption," Mr. Fiske
wrote, "that in seeking a conference
v.-ith the labor representatives we
v. ere pretending to represent you or
your board was quite unwarranted.
We frankly put our real position he
fare these organizations and tie
public. We think the truculent at
titude of some railroad adininistra
tietia toward the operatives and the
unions a great mistake which may
:cad to disaster, ana that it is time
that all concerned should show some
conciliatory disposition, at least to
the extent of endeavoring to ge; the
point of view of labor, and to seek
seme method of negotiation to end
the present impasse."
Mr. Fiske stated that the Metro
politan Insurance company's financ
ed interest in the New York Central
railroad amounts to .$22,000,000.
"Interest in your company is a
vital one," he said. "It is very dis
turbing To read that you are dis
posed to ignore this interest. It is
even more disturbing to find yourself
and the board regret any action on
our part to protect our interests.
"You are" objecting, if you will
pardon us for saying so, in an offen
sive, not to say impertinent way, to'
our endeavors to protect our own in-1
vestments. We feeL that we had ai
right to ask co-operation and help
rather than opposition."
