As. there can be but two sides to any pub lic question. It necessarily fol lows that we have room for but two great organizations represent ing the respective differences of opinion.

Some people can 't stand prosperity. They get along very nicely as long as they have to count every penny, but as soon as they have a little money they go to pieces and lose all their commou sense and good judg ment. " That happens to many savings depositors. A balance of two or three hundred dollars makes them feel like millionaires. So they draw it out. and spend It on trifles, , instead ot investing it wisely. Don 't get foolish when your balance here shows a healthy growth.
