| Our Best Wishes
I for You—
l With the passing of the old year—with
its joys and its sorrows, its good and its
ill fortunes—we are moved to “strike -i
balance,” and we find that the good has
largely predominated. For this we are
largely indebted to the support and en
couragement of our patrons and friends.
To all who have in any way contributed
toward the material or moral support of
our business we tender the assurance of
grateful hearts.
Trusting that the coming years may hold
for you much that is good and as little as
possible that is evil, we shall ever remain
Gratefully -Yours,
Loup City State Bank
For Past and Future
Among the many blessings for which we
have to be thankful during this glad holi
day season, the confidence and support of
our loyal friends and customers stands out
before us as the greatest. And the fact that
we have striven hard to merit this confi
dence in no way detracts from the pleasure
of knowing that is has been accorded us.
In entering upon another year of service
to our community our earnest hope is that a
kind Providence may bring to one and all
its richest gifts, and that the cordial rela
tions heretofore existing between you and
us may be materially strengthened as the
months go by. -. - - t
Yours for a Happy and
Prosperous Neu)
Year
