HEBE is an economy wave over the land.
American people are beginning to realise
that they aYe living too fast, beyond their
means. It has been the rule that the man
with $20,000 a year as well as the man with
$2,000 a year lives up to every penny of his
income. Slowly but surely this order of
things is changing. The era of extravagance and
waste in business and personal expenses is nearing an
end. Efficiency and economy is tne order of the day.
Bank deposits are growing. ,
It is up to every one to economize. The best and
surest way to do so is to place your surplus in the bank.
If you already have a bank account make it a point
from today on to increase it. Add to it weekly, daily
if possible.
