This Bank never declines a deftosit be-
i,a it is small. Any sum from a sinjjle

how much they knew about the conduct of the larger world
about them, what attitude they held toward it. Springfield,
Massachusetts, proved to be the banner city for civic intel

excellence of THE SPRINGFIELD REPUBLICAN, which
has educated its young readers to a taste for matter
touching on the large and vital facts in the world about
them."
