RUNNING RISKS ~
In spite of the possibility of loss by burglars or lire
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?
