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 honest,
and tell our patrons tlie truth, it really counts for little. We
could have had, just as easily, a Subscribed Capital ol
$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 MONEli
$58,000.00 OF CASH PAID IN CAPITAL and iundvided
profits That is the reason this Bank is prepared to take good
care of your business. And we assure you that MORE CAPI
TAL WILL BE PAID IN as soon as we believe it can be safely
and profitably invested.
RUNNING RISKS
In spite of the possibility of loss by burglars or fire
a great many people continue to keep money
about their homes. By so doing they are not only
risking the loss of money but also their lives. How
much safer it would be if these people would
put their money into a good safe bank. Are you
running such risks?
