What is a
BANK?
A modern bank is more than a deposi
tory for money; more than a place upon
which to issue checks.
A modern bank is an institution of help
fulness to its depositors and clients. It
is interested in seeing that they are
prosperous and successful in the;r fi
nancial ventures.
Depositors who let us help them with
