shows any symptoms of this dread
disease KEEP HIM HOME and do
not spread it. Have him inoculated

THANKS, FOLKS!
N. A. Clark of Eight Mile was a
visitor in the city on Saturday and
reports a fine lot of moisture which
is of much eneflt to the sown grain.
If it wasn't for the
trade you folks give us
we couldn't .continue
in business, that's all.
You just bet we are
mighty thankful for
your patronage during
1929.
To make our busi
ness of even greater
value and service to
you individually and
to the community at
large is going to be
our guiding principle
in 1930.
The past year may
have brouhgt its dis
appointment and trou
bles but let's not car
ry them over into this
year for we probably
will get some nice new
ones without even
looking for them.
A NEW YEAR!

Fifty Years Ago
this month Thomas A. Edison
gave his first public demonstra
tion of lighting with incandes
cent lamps. Spcial trains were
run to Menlo Park, New Jersey,
to care for the crowds, who
wanted to see this wonderful new
light.
No one man has ever given a
great people so wonderful a
Christmas gift. Today there is
scarcely a hamlet so small that
it does not receive electric ser
vice. There is no Christmas gift as
welcome today as some electrical
device for use in the home. Their
name is legion and there is some
thing within the reach of almost
every pocket-book.

TAIi
WE COULD DO
WITHOUT
The man in office
could do without one
meal a day, but he
would not like it. The
man on the farm
could get along with
out a seed drill or corn
planter he could do
his planting by hand.
And a woman could
get along without any
labor saving conven
iences in her kitchen.
We men folks never
hesitate to buy equip
ment that Willi save
time and work. Why
shouldn't we be as
considerate of our
wives as we are of
ourselves. A built-in
kitchen cabinet, new
floors and a coat or
two of fresh bright
paint on the wood
work is what she
wants and we have
'em.
Be careful of too
many New Year resolutions.
The man getting his
hair cut noticed that
the barber's dog had
his eyes fixed on his
master at work.
"Nice dog," said the
customer. "He seems
very fond of watching
you cut hair."
"'Taln't that," said
the barber. "You see,
sometimes I makes a
mistake and snips off
a piece of a custom
er's ear."
A Merry Christmas and a
Happy New Year is our greeting
to you.
May your Joys be unbounded.
We thank you for your pat
ronage of the past year and hope
that our friendships may con
tinue through the years to come.

A Definite Objed
Do not save money just for the
sake of saving. That isn't the idea
at all. Have a definte object. Then
thrift will have a new meaning to
you.
Save to pay for a home; to give
the children an education; to take that
vacation you long for. Save to even
tually have an income from your in
vestments. Save to be able to start
in business for yourself. Have some
definite object in view you can at-.
tain it. Let our bank help you.
