Every time you go to the bank and make "another"
deposit it is Thanksgiving, or should be; because your fu
ture is being made secure against want; your old age is
made comfortable and happy, and those you love are
being protected against poverty or humiliation.
Come in and start a bank account with a little money
and make a big Thanksgiving.
