Perhaps they do not realize that a checking account has just as many advantages as a savings account. Many of our customers have found that they can savo moro if they have both a savings aud checking account. For one reason they do not carry with them so' much cash which tempts them to spend needlessly. And for another reason they keep track of their expendi tures better when they pay their bills with checks. Many good savers check out only what is ncccessary for current expenses and at the end of each month transfer what is left in their checking accounts to their savings accounts. It is a good scheme. We advise you to try it. Nation;!
