THE REASON WHY
many people never have their share of this world's
good things is because they fail to cooperate with their
own interests, many of them without thinking to be
sure, but never-the-less to (heir own injury.
For Instance' If you at e not patronizing your home
bank you are not cooperating with one of your best int
erests. You surely know that a good safe bank in your
community substantially enhances the value of your
land. It helps you get a" better sale for your cattle and
produce by keeping constantly on the alert to bring buy
er and seller together to the bots advantage. It is not
altogether through selfish motives that your-home bank
solicits your cooperation, but the interests are mutual.
We m?ed your patronage and cooperation to increase our .
strength find ability. You need your home bank at it's
best strength and ability, for it speaks welt for your
community, enhances the value of all your property,
finances your business in a pinch and keeps the wolf
from the door. We need you. You need us. Let's co
operate, we, will meet you half way.
