The year 1911 has been a prosperous one for the VIRGINIA TRUST COMPANY?but we will have something to say about that a little later on. That's not the point we would drive this morning. It's this: Inside of two weeks about one million dollars will be drawn by the citizens of Richmond in the shape. of dividends, coupons clipped, interest re? ceived, etc. AND THIS COMPANY WANTS A PART OF IT. It is a good time for many people to start an account here. And it will be just as safe as if you put it with Uncle Sam's local agent, Mr. Allen. The difference being he pays you 2 per cent, and we will pay 3 per cent, on the daily balance- large or small and you can check on it when you get ready. 1106 East Main Street, RICHMOND, VA.
