Teaching yoxx
Thrift
Practice makes perfect.
Schoolmasters of today as
well as yesterday constantly repeat
that truth. Pupils learn by applying
it
a
Application of that principle to cur
everyday habits proves its
practical help. We learn by
practicing, whether it be a
good habit or a bad habit.
This bank teaches you thrift
by leading you to practice it.
The lesson is easily learned
once it is begun. To become
perfect in it requires constant
practice. A savings account is
the most consistent method
of practicing thrift.

Would You Save
On Coal?
We have a number of cars of coal in transit which
are due to arrive in a short time, and we are making a
very close price on same, especially when taken from
the car. Just what the situation will be later on, we are
unable to tell. With the prospect of a rail strike, the
coal situation would rapidly become serious. Better
save your money by buying some of this coal, and at
the same time be assured of having it when you need it.
