A checking account is the first st^p
toward establishing credit with a bank.
And credit today is a real asset.
Y et 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.
W e 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.

ces J . Honry Albers was made the
goat for the outlet of public re­
sentment against all people within
our borders who have profited
through our institutions anJ then
reviled them. Socialists say worse
things.
Various reformers and
even the small town knockers have
l>een equally indiscrete but Albers
said the wrong thing at the right
time and paid the penalty. H s
offence was flagrant. An unpros-
perous man might be excused per­
haps for finding fault with condi­
tions but for a man like Albers it
was inexcusable.

Meditations
The man on a vacation who re­
gards the rights of others leaves
his camping place as clean as when
he found it; picks up waste paper
and other trash and puts out his fire.
In seeking tax reductions it is the
patriotic aim of every one to get
the burden firmly located on the
shoulders of the person who can best
afford to pay. Of course this is some
one else, preferably "intrenched
and predatory wealth.”
