My Bank Account
Janus Trim
I started to make my bank
account two years ago. 1 bad to
work pretty hard for it.
My bank is a glass jar with
cover that turns. Then we open
it.
1 have nineteen dollars and
sixty cents. 1 had to go to the
store to get some of it and some
times a man would give me so
me money. 1 mostly spend m.\
money on food and clothing. I
pai-d for my bicycle and L am
saving my money to go to High
school, ft takes three thousand
two hundred forty dollars for
four years.
1 don’t think 1 will depend
on mother to send money to me
while 1 am there. I will put my
self through Highschool.

The year of 1024 mother
bought a horse for me. She put
some money away for me and J
helped to put away too.
I have my money in the
Cordova Bank. This money is in
a safe place. If I want to I can
send to it and get the money.
I have $500.00 in the bank
of Cordova. That is with my
nother helping me earn it
Mother said that I have to earn
the rest of it myself this summer
I have earned $165.00.
I have bought my clothing since
I got my hors«. 1 have paid my
board this year I have paid for
the shoeing of my horse. I am
saving my money for what ever
I want to do when I grow up. If
I want to go to High School I can,
I figure if I have no bank account
I would have to depend on my
mother and father. That is why
I have a bank account.
Verna Wills
My bank was bought at the
First Bank of Cordova. It was
bought in nineteen twenty-three.
You cannot open it unless you
send it down to the bank.
My bank is red leather and ;
on the front says "First Bank j
of Cordova.” It has a little box
to put it in.
1 have not been saving my
money regularly because I paid
for some of my clothing. I have
t wenty eight dollars in my bank.
1 earned twelve dollars sell
ing a picture, f spent it for cloth
ing. I have done other things
also to earn money.
I am saving my money to go
to High School it will cost me
for one year $160 for board
and room. It will cost me one
hundred dollars for clothing
and laundry. For incidentals it
will be one hundred dollars
more, and two hundred fifty- !
six dollars for boat fares. My
train fare will be one hundred
dollars. My hotel bills will be
forty five dollars and that would
amount to three thousand two
hundred forty dollars for four
years.
You have to behave to have
a good character and working
l'or education makes you beh
ave. L will not have to depend
on my father and mother.
Louise Ah. ens
My bank was started last
year.
It is a pocket book. I have
$:i0 in it.
1 do not spend any of my
money except to buy my school
things. 1 save my money because
1 do not like to buy candy with
it.

Frank Wills
My mother got me a bank at!
Cordova. It. cost one dollar, I got
it in 1'. 2:1. It won’t open till you
send it down to the First Bank
Cordova.
I first had a blue bank. It
held $32.00. Then I got a West,
ern Savings account. You cannot
draw any money for eight years.
There are $10.00, $25.00, S5.00
shares. 1 got a five dollar share
which means that I deposit five
dollars every month.
I spend my money on cloth
ing, and help mother pay for the
bills in the house. Sometimes I
buy candy and fruit. I spend
money on car fare and shows
sometimes.
I am saving my money to go
to High School. Jt will cost $860
a year for room and board. The
clothing and the laundry bill is
$100.00 a year, and street car fare
a little spending money, and
other incidentals will amount to
another $100. It costs $256.00
from Cordova to Seattle and back.
The train fare from McCarthy to
Cordova and back is $100.00. For
four years it cost $324.00.
I think it would be good to
have an education. Then you
could do any work they give you.
You wouldn’t have to depend on
your mother and father. You
wouldn’t have to borrow any mon
ey. You would depend on your
self.
