o VALUE OF CREDIT fe A checking account is the first step toward establishing credit with a bank. And credit today is a real asset. Yet it is what you make it. The right credit at the right time, at the right bank may be worth more to you than a batch of letters presented by you as a stranger. VVe seek growing accounts of grow ing business men—men who will come to us for advice, and who will want the friendship of a strong bank when credit is needed. This bank will be glad to meet you and serve you. It is a pleasure, as well as good business, to have young men grow with us.
