Where Are Your
Liberty Bonds and War
Savings Stamps?
Are they in your home or your office, where
they are in danger of being mislaid, burned
or stolen?
Don't you think it would be worth while to
have a Safe Deposit Box in which to keep
these securities together with any other valu
able papers, such as deeds, mortgages, notes,
contracts, your will, stock certificates and
insurance papers; also jewelry,. keepsakes,
heirlooms, etc., where they would be secure
from fire and theft and under your own per
sonal control?
Our vaults are of solid steel and concrete
construction of the strongest type, protected
by massive doors, and guarded day and night
by electrical devices.
«
We have attractive and convenient private
booths where you may take your box and
inspect your valuables at any time. You are
given two keys and are privileged to share
the box with any one you choose without
extra charge. This service costs a fraction
over a cent a day.

Gravity, he says. Is not a power of

"If gravity held us down," Mr
