An authorized and subscribed Capital is a convenient thing—
good thing for advertising purposes, but to be perfectly honest,
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\,
$58,000.00 OF CASH PAID IN CAPITAL and undivided
profits. That is the reason this Bank is prepared to take good
care of your business. And we assure you that MORE CAPI
