This Bank has an authorized
CAPITAL of $100,000.00.
An authorized and subscribed Capital is a convenient thing—
good thing for advertising purposes, but to be perfectly lionest, ^
and tell our patrons the truth, it really counts for little. We
could have had, just as easily, a Subscribed Capital of
$500,000. It would not have cost us one cent more.
What our patrons are really interested in knowing is, this
Bank has invested in its business, of ITS OWN MONE"i
$58,000.00 OF CASH PAID IN CAPITAL and iundvided
protits. That is the reason this Bank is prepared to take good
care of your business. And we assure you that MOKE CAPI
TAL WILL BE PAID IN as soon as we believe it can be safely
