GIRLS AND SAVINGS
The Bank for Savings has something to
offer which adds to the attractiveness of
any
girl. Love, beauty and winsomeness cannot
of course be stated in terms of money. But the
habit of thrift, the love of simplicity, and the
.absence of extravagance which the Savings
habit gives to any girl do much to insure the
permanence of her attractiveness.
