- Yes, we have turned that new leaf
and will endeavor to do unto others
as we would have others do unto us.
If we would all turn the old leaf

says: Honesty is the best policy, we
would not be bothered with the moon
shiners in 1922. :

We saw some nheasants and auail I

starved. Some few auto drivers are
complaining that the new year will
make them change their license and
scatter some of their hard cash. That
is what- hurts. " -

A; Business Necessity
A check book is as necessary an adjunct to any
man's business as money itself. Not only does
it eliminate the necessity of keeping a large
amount of cash on hand, but it likewise serves
as a record keeper of all important business
transactions. .
An endorsed check is the same as a receipt for cash. Hence it
will pay you to- start a checking account with us. And with
our courteous service you will find it a big help in your busi
ness. - -
