WE FURNISH YOU CHECKS
THAT CANNOT BE RAISED!
FOR THIRTY-EIGHT YEARS the post
office has been using this idea. Have
you ever heard of a money order being raised.
With the Protectu check you don’t need
a check protector. Think how much time
this will save you on payrolls. Or making
your regular payments for purchases. Get
one when your present book is gone. The
Protectu check gives you a protector right
with your pocket check book. This is new.
It is a safeguard for your patrons.
Ask any of our vice presidents for a
demonstration of this new check or call at
the New Accounts window on the Main
banking floor. There is a nominal charge for
the Protectu cover but the specially prepared
checks are furnished without charge.
