Victor E. Nicdcre, of the Firs'.

Conrad Neiderer, under date of
July inth. stating that the time
is going very swiftly, although he
had very ;iit)e mail from
home. "I know everything over
there is all right." says Victor. He
says tie has met a man horn in
Sv.'i'.zerland and they are planning
to niiakr. a trip Into that country
after tlie war. ' "While he was
horn, in Switzerland he Is a splen

Thait's the place where the Amer

Is said to be a fine layout. You
may know whore it is located as
it Is close to the Swiss border."
With a fond good-bye to his re

that everything will come out all

GO TO THE BEE, THOU SLUGGARD,
CONSIDER HIS WAYS AND BE WISE.
The most important thing about a bee is not his stinger
but, that he is a "Saver," while the fact that he is also a
stinger is the next most important thing about him, as
you have probably had reasons to experience.
If you adopt his plan on saving, and make our bank your
hive, you are less liable to "get stung" by some "get-rich- .
quick" scheme. . ..
You can't lose if your money is deposited in our bank. We
take every precaution to protect your money; we carry
burglar insurance, have fire-proof vaults, and bonded employes.
