OH SUSANNAH,
DON’T YOU CRY
FOR ME ...
What makes this fellow so
carefree, cocksure and confi
dent? Maybe its because he's
got a growing savings account!
Nothing like it to boost a
fellow's morale, and give him
that secure, ready-for-anything
feeling.
Things will look brighter to you, too, once you
get the habit of systematic saving. Come in soon!

hostess Ethelwynn Martin was
as she entertained our club for
the month of October.
It was a miserable day, but
we were a cozy, happy group
and noticed it but little. The
table was spread with wonder
ful food and as we bowed our
heads Agnes Sandvik said a
prayer of thanks.
We sold quite a few items
from our white elephant sale.
Myrtle Bang gave us a good
lesson on gift appreciation.
We had such fun. and do in
vite any lady that lives at the
Butte to join us for potluck at
11 a.m., Nov. 21, in the home
of Lu Sandvik.
