SERIOUSLY SPEAKING
Let’s be really serious for a moment. What makes
a bank really sound? It is CONFIDENCE to be sure, j
but what establishes confidence?
Wre’ll tell you. It is the men who conduct the
bank. Our officers are courteous and obliging, con
| servative, friendly. Our Directors know what is go
I ing on inside the bank. It is their business to know,
and they DO know7.
Our stockholders are among the solid citizens of
’ community. Our Patrons are people of influe,
and worth. All these beget confidence, the one thing
that builds up a strong bank.
